Clinics Equine Body Language and Communication with Suzanne Rogers BSc(Hons) and Amber Batson (vet) BVetMed MRCVS, Saturday March 17th 2012, Pott Shrigley, Cheshire. After a brief introduction to the science of equine behaviour, this event will cover how equines communicate with a focus on body language. An in-depth understanding of the subtle ways that horses communicate with each other and with humans is vital to develop the best relationship we can with them. After this event you will never look at horses on TV, in films, in training demonstrations or even in a field in the same way again as you will be able to recognise much more clearly what they are trying to tell us, and how much they are so often mis-interpreted or ignored.
