Our Horse of the month for April is Scarlett a lovely Irish Sport horse and since she and her owner Linda appear on the cover of this book I thought I would introduce you to a great reference book for your equine library. The Horse Training Problem Solver by Jessica Jahiel has a wonderful readabilty to it, just imagine short stories, questions and answers and a "how to" all rolled into one. I particulaly like the fact that the book encompasses a variety of different training methods and techniques, always emphasizing what is best for the horse. This book is great for the new horse owner, for someone getting back into horses and also for the experienced horse owner. I've had horses most of my life and I found this book to be useful as a reminder for training methods I had used in the past, but had forgotten about, it gave me a new perspective by encouraging me to try different training styles and it reminded me about the virtues of things like proper warm ups. So, next time your at the tack shop take a look at this book I think you'll like it!
