Omschrijving
Aimed at the first-time pony owner, this book provides sound and practical advice on all aspects of finding, buying and caring for a pony. Beautifully illustrated throughout, Pony Care: A Complete Guide to Buying and Caring for Your First Pony is an essential step-by-step guide for the non-horsey parent
Alison Pocklington has ridden and owned ponies from the age of eight. Her career with horses began in 1987 at the Yorkshire Riding Centre, where she gained her BHS Instructor Stable Manager’s Certificate. Alison went on to groom internationally and was awarded the Horse and Hound Groom of the Year award in 2000. Following on from this success, her first book The Essential Guide to Professional Horse Care and Grooming was published in 2004.
Having successfully evented and ridden in point-to-points, Alison is now an instructor at the Yorkshire Riding School and trains a wide range of clients for eventing, show jumping, dressage and hunting. She is married to Olympic and international rider Christopher Bartle and has two children. Alison enjoys going hunting with her nine-year-old daughter and cares for her ponies when she is at school.
You may well be saying to yourself ‘not another first-pony book’ but I can assure you that this one is better than most. It is long, comprehensive, with lots of sound advice and, although covering all the things parents want and/or need to know, it also has colour photos and other illustrations on just about every page, which will help retain the interest of children, too.
