We’ll look at the common and not-so-common diseases, how to prevent them and the available treatment options.

We invest an enormous amount of time, money and emotion in our horses, regardless of what we want them to do.  What makes one horse easy to deal with and to train, and another a hot-wired bag of nerves with a bad reputation?  The ability of human actions and interventions to influence equine temperament and physical and mental wellbeing begins long before conception, and continues all the way through the horse’s lifetime – for better or for worse!

How does this happen?  How can we optimise our relationships with horses and in so doing improve performance?

Settle in for a ramble through the life story of a horse, and explore the twists and turns of their behaviour and responses.
