This book is the best I've seen on the market about clicker training for horses. All my horses are all C/T-ed and have learnt to fetch, touch, return, nod, count etc. It's easy to follow and it includes interesting examples. This book will make your life w/ you horse much easier. You will understand each other and is great fun for both you and your horse. If you like extending your equine knowledge to the furthest, clicker training is not to be missed!

Having heard about horses that have learnt to 'fetch' or hold legs up whilst bandages were applied, I wanted to learn more about clicker training. I bought this book not really knowing what I was getting into and with no prior knowledge whatsoever.
This book has changed everything. My horse really looks forward to doing the exercises explained in the book and he's alot happier for it!
The book starts off with the basics on how to start and builds up to more difficult work (lateral bending/loading etc). Its packed full of really useful hints and tips and is written extremely well (very easy to follow). Its good also because it doesnt insist on you buying expensive 'gadgets' to train with. For target training I use a lid to a supplement!
Even if you're only slightly interested/curious about clicker training, please read this book!

This book has to be the first on anyones list who wants to clicker train their horse.
It starts off, talking about the basics of clicker training, how to get your horse to touch a target and then progress to leaving their head on it longer and then - C/T-ing a horse to do pretty much anything!
The book takes you through a few examples of what has been done in the past but encourages you to think about what you would like to teach, break it down into small peices and then work your way through it. C/T can be used for almost anything, a horse standing still whilst you are mucking out around him, getting a horse to load itself, a horse holding its leg up for you to bandage it.... the possibilities are endless, you can even use it to improve your ridden work.
If you're interested in C/T then buy this book!
