Horse behaviour workshop with Ben Hart
Saturday 31st May
What sort of a person would a horse choose to be owned by? What makes someone good or bad with horses? How do horse’s think? How do we decide how to compromise between how a horse would choose to live and what we might want him/her to do? Do we, as owners, tend to think that our horses are capable of more than they are or do we underestimate them?
These are just some of the questions that Ben Hart will discuss in this event that will look deeper into the art and science of horsemanship.
Tickets £45 for the day.
Location: The Wheatsheaf, Woking.

EVENT POSTPONED Sense and Sensibility - behaviour day
Our pets have senses that are very different to ours. For example a cat’s hearing is so sensitive that we can be in the same room as a cat yet have a completely different experience to that of our cats. This day will look at the senses of our pets and at ways in which we can use a better understanding of their world in the way we keep them and what we provide to keep them entertained. This will be a day event in Woking, Surrey.
