Recenzii
“Master trainer Douglas Puterbaugh uses a touch of humor while offering sound advice in [this] must-have book … complete with practical exercises, enlightening photographs, and useful information for becoming a better rider.”—Equine Journal
“After reading this book you will feel inspired to do better, and will be aware of bad energies and habits that may have crept into your riding spirit. A truly good book. Highly recommend this, not just for dressage folks either. It applies in great part to all riders.”—TheHorseStudio.com
“The (Seven Deadly) sins, according to Puterbaugh, are: ignorance, timidity, pride, fear, impatience, anger, and immoderation. In The Seven Deadly Sins of Dressage, Puterbaugh shows us how not to repeat the trespasses of our past horsemanship mistakes.”—USDF Connection
“The book is a blend of psychology, philosophy, and practical advice. It is a book about human character traits as they relate to riding. Above all, it is a self improvement book, and as stated in the chapter on Immoderation, the overarching theme is: ‘Before trying to improve your horse, try to improve yourself.’”—Mid-South Horse Review
“Although dressage-oriented, this book should be a requirement for anyone who owns a horse, no matter what discipline. Horses everywhere will be better off because of it. The quotes from influential trainers in years past are worth the price alone.”—Horse Journal
“The writing style is ... clear and understandable. ... I recommend it to riders of every type and level.”—skeltop on HubPages
