Die Fahrschule fürs Pferd richtet sich in erster Linie an Freizeitfahrer ohne Turnierambitionen, die auf dem Kutschbock ein entspanntes und sichereres Freizeitvergnügen suchen. Dieses Buch erklärt den logischen und schrittweisen Trainingsaufbau zu einem wirklich verlässlichen Fahrpferd, denn Sicherheit erwirbt man nicht, indem man das Pferd für vier Wochen zu einem Profiausbilder gibt. Es ist nicht nur möglich, sondern sogar unerlässlich, dass der Pferdebesitzer zuhause Vorarbeit leistet und die Grundlagen für das spätere Anspannen legt. Diese Anleitung hilft ihnen dabei.

Many dogs, especially those from animal shelters, have not had good experiences in their previous lives and are traumatized or fearful. This often manifests itself in different behaviors in different situations. For example, a dog expresses its fear through aggression on the lead if another dog comes too close, if it encounters cyclists or joggers or a person who wants to stroke the fearful dog. Other dogs are afraid of stairs, being left alone or loud noises. Anxious dogs also try to escape situations and show their fear by curling their tail or putting their ears back.
