Product Description

In his third book, Horses Never Lie, Mark Rashid breaks new ground with the idea that you don't have to be dominant to be a leader to your horse. He challenges the longstanding belief that an owner must be the alpha leader to work effectively with horses. Building on the primary concept of his previous books -- looking at the world from the horse's point of view -- Mark Rashid clearly defines the difference between alpha and passive leaders. He explains how to be a passive leader and illustrates with compelling stories how horses can change from being indifferent or unwilling participants to becoming enthusiastic partners.

    I've read several of Mark Rashid's books, and will write a general review..... Of all the horse related books I've read, and there have been many, these are the ones that I have been able to learn from and implement the most. And they are fun reads even for those who do not own or train horses. Lots of stories and antidotes. And I like his band's cd also.

    This was the best book on horses I have read so far. Really hit home for me and just made sense. If you can only read one horse book, read this one.

    One of my favorite trainers. He is correct- good leaders install confidence in followers by earning trust, not by being "alpha."
