This is an excellent book for anyone--not just someone who wants to train their horse to do tricks. It builds a better partnership and teaches the horse to be more responsive. Jan's explanations are clear--things that anyone can follow at home. The proof of her methods of training are in the horses she shows & the rave reviews of people who buy her foals. Her stallion, TS Black Tie Affair, has won world championships in many events and competes in everything from halter to dressage to speed classes! He's always good tempered and has excellent manners. And he loves to demonstrate his tricks!!! For those of you who are spotted horse fans, you'll love the illustrations in this book--they're all Pintos!
Spectacular! Easy to Follow! June 21, 2004 Linda Myers (Burton, OH United States) 19 out of 20 found this review helpful
Jan's book is the best book I've read on the subject of trick training for horses. I own other trick training books (and videos) and if you own Jan's book, you can pitch the others. She explains each concept simply and includes training "keys" and "tips" that are absolutes! She also includes some notes of caution - things that you need to watch out for. Learning from her experience makes trick training fun and easy! I highly recommend this book!
Methods are too advanced July 3, 2006 M. Ware (Kansas) 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
For example, one of the tools she recommends is the halter with chain over the nose for more "persuasive" effect. Unless you know already how to use this halter, don't start here. This type of halter can seriously hurt a horse unless used properly.
Not Really a Training Book September 12, 2009 JPM (Travels the USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was looking for a trick training book and bought this one. Not much about real training. It is just one view of how someone did it with their horse(s). The stories are a little far fetched and so is the training. I wish it had more substance and not just a "this is what I did and it worked" mentality. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who wants to trick train their horses. It may cause more problems than bring fun to your training.
