Review:My daughter's riding instructor recommended anything written by Cherry Hill but especially this title. My daughter is 13 and could not put it down. She is a homeschooled girl who is an avid reader especially about horses. Read more
Review:I had a few issues with the extreme expectations he had. I read this book shortly before adopting my 8 week old little rescue mutt. The first issue I had is his mentality about choosing the "correct" puppy, and really he's speaking on the fact that one should purchase a puppy from a breeder to be sure you have chosen the correct "qualities". Unfortunately- many people like myself prefer to rescue puppies, regardless of what their breed and qualities are. According to Dr. Dunbar, if you do not "c... Read more
Review:This came in great shape. I will be honest though, my reading load has been heavy and I haven't got to this book yet. I did however read their other book, and know they are great dog trainers. I suggest this book to anyone try to train their dog. Also look into other books about the monks of new skete's german shepards. Read more

Review:The info in the book is an amalgamation of information easily found on the web based on basic Native American Indian Symbolism. Other cultures and religious beliefs have some of these symbols and could have easily written the book. Save yourself time and money and just Google the symbol or symbolism you want information. I have recently lost a pet and my mother. I woul dhave really liked to have had some guidance in opening myself up to receive these signs. Very disappointed Read more
Review:There were parts of this book when I laughed till I cried! Maybe because I've been there, done that? At times it seemed to be a little repetitious, though. What brought it all together for me was the introspection and self analysis. While entertaining to the reader, it clearly was a catharsis for the author. How will he follow up? Read more
Review:This is a wonderful, wonderful book. I had read the author's book excerpt in the Washington Post weekend magazine and was so impressed that I got the book. I was so thrilled with the book, I bought four more copies for friends. The book will make you laugh and make you cry. The best book I have read in a while! Read more
Review:Great lessons to be learned from Mark's anecdotes of his lifelong experience of working with horses. He is not only a great horseman that truly understands animal psychology, but also a gifted writer that captivates his audience with often humorous accounts of lessons he learned through interactions with both horses and people. I can truly relate to his passive style of gaining a horse's confidence, as I acquired a rescue horse that feared everyone and everything, and using a similar approach I ... Read more
