Editorial Reviews: Amazon.com The popular image of the horse may be as a domestic animal living in a stall or pasture, but the horse is actually a naturally-occurring living being that survived on its own for untold ages before it was domesticated. Today, in the United States as well as other parts of the world, horses continue to survive on their own with no help from humans. This video utilizes years of experience dealing with horses plus the wild horses of Shackleford Island, North Carolina, to explore the characteristics of the horse as it was designed to be - how it eats, lives, interacts, and survives. This understanding of the horse as a natural animal is then compared with some of the most popular ways of keeping and dealing with horses, and a more natural way of keeping horses is discussed. The second section contains in depth discussion about how horses communicate, not only with each other but also with humans, and how we, sometimes without realizing it, communicate with our horses. These insights will allow the horse owner to understand the causes of many common horse problems and keep and deal with horses in an empathetic manner that is more harmonious with the horse's natural ways.This is not a demonstration video showing work with horses, and it is not a horse training video; rather, it provides essential, foundational understanding that encourages horse owners to step back, take a few minutes, and think about their horses and their interaction with their horses. Useful for those with extensive experience with horses as well as those just beginning. An essential resource for all who want to understand the horse as a whole and maximize their enjoyment of their horse. This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

Customer Reviews: Read 2 more reviews... UNDERSTANDING THE HORSE presented by Tim Ware February 16, 2008 If not the worst, certainly among the worst videos regarding equines. What makes it so bad is the totally unscientific, muddle headed, and inaccurate information dispensed as fact. There are many, many excellent books and DVDs about equines. This is most certainly not one of them. SF Not recommended March 1, 2007 I bought this for my husband for Christmas and was very disapointed. We use many natural horsemanship methods with our herd, but this DVD was all wrong. I do not recommend this to anyone. Natural does not mean "no care, no deworming and no hoofcare". I would not follow this DVD's advise with my animals. From the Author February 23, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful The idea for this video came from years of interacting with horse owners during my hoof care practice. I saw the same misunderstandings of horses over and over and decided to produce a source that would address these misunderstandings. I had no desire to promote myself as a personality or to claim to have some kind of breakthrough method, as there is too much of that in the horse world already. It is presented for the good of the horse and from my love of horses. Most of all it is presented in the hope that it can help improve horses' lives, as it helps owners to see their horses as living, breathing, feeling beings, not just objects to be used. It does not describe horsekeeping in a conventional manner congruent with veterinary and pharmaceutical interventions, it certainly won't please the supplement manufacturers, and it does not follow the image aspect of horsekeeping as promoted in major horse magazines by those with an endless array of products to sell. It tries to go beyond all that and give the horse owner a glimpse of something beyond the horizons of what every one else is doing, beyond the horse world of product, image, and personality marketing. Much of the material is just common sense--things that most horse owners already know but don't think about. I purposefully presented it in an easy to understand, conversational style, for I wanted it to be just like I was standing around and talking to someone. It will not tell you how to get your horse to do what you want, but it might help you understand better what your horse wants...and needs. Interesting but different January 25, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful I got this as a Christmas present. Didn't know what to expect. I liked it. At least Tim Ware's not just another guy dressed up as a cowboy saying the same old things. What he said really made me think. It's stuff I knew but never really thought about in that way. Those who are stuck in their own ways won't like it, but those with open minds and wanting to learn will. Oh, Well... January 18, 2007 1 out of 3 found this review helpful From the cover of this DVD, I really expected it to be pretty good. Turns out I was wrong. No useful info at all. Just a pleasant country fellow looking into the camera and saying whatever came into his mind about horses. It seemed like the narrator followed no script, outline, or even train of thought - he just said whatever came into his mind (sometimes over and over and over and...)
