Beskrivelse
The Horse That Wouldn't Trot is a story about life with a very special breed of horse: The Tennessee Walking Horse. Read about the ups and downs of living on a real horse farm, the trials, tears and joy of exhibiting in the show ring, the enchantment of new-born foals, and the frustrations and successes in the breeding shed. Rose's honest and straightforward approach to sharing her compelling journey to become a true horsewoman is endearing and humbling. The detail and humor in which the author shares her memories is fascinating. It is a timeless story to share, but also exposes and explains soring, a cruel method of "training" the Tennessee Walker to step high for the showring. It is outlawed, but persists even today. Soring is still being fought and exposed. This book is part of that ongoing struggle. Some horse training tips are shared in a conversational manner and other parts of the story are inspirational. The book is suitable for readers of all ages.
