Sue And Morgan

Testimonials

George, William, and, of course, Buster

I called Sue to come and give my herd a healing after we lost one of my old boys, Buster, he was 25yrs old and was one of my original pair. I had owned him since he was 4 years, he had always been an integral part of my herd, being top dog for many years.

All the horses I have collected over the decades always joined his herd, so when we lost him it turned the herd upside down. His partner in crime, William, who he had lived with for the whole 21 years and were inseparable, was lost without him.

Eniye Iniekio

I have found being on the AEB course has totally changed my outlook on how to look after a horse. I have found it immensely interesting and beautiful. The theory helps you put into practice the subtle changes needed and shows you how you can go step by step by changing behaviours and attitudes and leaving your mess at home, thus leaving your horse able to relax and appreciate your presence. There are too many other great subjects to mention in this testimonial.

Previously I've participated on equestrian courses, but they have never come close to this course. Sue has a far better understanding of horses' actions and reactions that you would never even know about if you didn't do the course. I'm extremely lucky to have found Sue and her wonderful course.
I would recommend anybody who is interested in horse behaviour to grab the bull by the horns and do the course!

Sue and box and Dream

Sue's Philosophy

  • To Gain Mutual Understanding
  • Trust & Confidence
  • To fully embrace that horses are sentient beings
  • To achieve a deeper understanding  of how they perceive us and the world around them
  • To know their innate needs and to make sure that you meet as many of them as possible
  • To develop a communication that is built around mutual respect
  • To keep focussed and in the moment whilst also staying in a playful/light  state of mind

I chose this photo because I had been sitting on this box having a cup of tea when Dream appeared and put herself on it.  By standing up on this box she could see over the tops of the stables to the fields behind, which she loves to do.

Dream had developed enough trust and confidence to step up onto the box to enjoy the view without having to ask my permission, wait to be asked or having an expectation of a food reward. She did it for her own gain and enjoyment and we happily shared the box together, which is why I love this photo.
