The basic guide to horses is primarily intended for youth and beginner breeders. It contains everything necessary that is good to know at the outset – what a horse actually is, what its natural environment and way of life are, what it likes and what it dislikes, how to understand its behavior and communicate with it. In a question-and-answer format, the author addresses the most common inquiries people have – in addition to general care and riding basics, she answers questions such as whether horses get cold outside in winter, how long a horse needs to sleep, whether they can see at night, and many other interesting facts. This publication thus offers an accessible overview of what it entails to care for a horse, while also serving as an informed source of detailed information about horses in general.
