In this highly illustrated new book, renowned horse trainer and clinician John Lyons teaches readers how to "troubleshoot" such common problems as spooking, running away, rearing, kicking, balking at water, and refusing to load into a trailer. Lyons explains why horses are prone to certain reactions, then demonstrates how his methods can help prevent a minor miscommunication between animal and rider from escalating into a frustrating—and often dangerous—battle of wills. With each phase of the training process clearly set out and illustrated, step by step, readers will find themselves closer to better relationships with their horses. For over twenty years, John Lyons has helped thousands of horse owners worldwide improve their partnerships with their horses. When not on the road conducting clinics, demonstrations, and symposiums, John resides at his Cowboy Up Ranch in Parachute, Colorado. His previous books are John Lyons’ Bringing Up Baby and Lyons on Horses.

About the Author
John has spent the last 25 years teaching thousands of people worldwide to better understand their horses. For his success in doing so, he’s earned the title of America’s Most Trusted Horseman. A pioneer in the clinician movement, John’s hallmark training style is the use of gradual, step-by-step lesson plans to solve problems and teach a horse to just about anything.

A prime example of that program was John’s legendary Appaloosa stallion, Bright Zip, who is seen in some of this book’s chapters. ("Troubleshooting" was originally a series in Horse & Rider

Magazine from 1993 to 1997.) With John’s careful training, Zip faced bears, man-made "monsters," and anything else John asked him to do for a photo shoot.

For instance, in no time at all the trainer could teach Zip to rear or spook on command, then "fix" him immediately. For his efforts, the consistently good-natured stallion was rewarded with a spot in the Appaloosa Horse Club Hall of Fame; he was honored in 1994 as the Breyerfest Horse of the Year.
