Description

Combining an in-depth exploration of equine behaviour with clinical practice from a new progressive perspective, Equine Behaviour in Practice: Understanding Horses and Treating Behaviour Problems focuses not just on the horse’s behaviour but also on the behaviour of the human interacting with the horse. Acclaimed Clinical Equine Behaviourist Debbie Busby delivers evidence-based knowledge that will equip readers with the understanding and skills to become effective equine behaviour consultants. Supported by considered discussion of how and why horses sometimes struggle to cope, the book comprehensively explains how to consult on and treat a range of equine behaviour problems. Rather than providing a formulaic "here’s the problem; here’s how to fix it", Busby encourages readers to develop a critical biopsychosocial evaluation based on an understanding of how horses evolved, their ethological and physiological adaptations, how they learn, and how their welfare and wellbeing can be assessed. KEY FEATURES: Part 1 explains theories of equine evolution and the thin veneer of domestication Part 2 describes psychological and physiological theories of how horses learn, and how this can be applied in training and behaviour modification Part 3 illustrates this with reference to relevant legislation and widely used animal welfare models, as well as assessments of abnormal and stereotypic behaviour and practical aspects of measuring welfare Part 4 turns to the theory and practice of behaviour consulting, in three chapters divided into elements of behavioural assessment and treatment planning Part 5 examines the use of psychopharmaceuticals in behaviour therapy, discussing the roles of the behaviour consultant and the referring veterinary surgeon Bridging the gap between science and practice, this book is a must-read for equine behaviour and veterinary students, equine behaviour consultants and practitioners, horse trainers, interested leisure riders and competition riders. It will empower equine professionals to combine behavioural and welfare knowledge with counselling and coaching skills to support horse owners in a mutual flourishing, enriching the lives of both species.
