商品描述

Scentwork for Horses is the first practical guide on how to implement scentwork into the lives of domesticated horses, enhancing behaviour, welfare, and the human-animal bond. Scentwork is a new discipline in the field for horse and handler, and expert author Rachaël Draaisma arms the reader with a palette of information to enable them to put this technique into action. As well as theoretical background information on the nose of the horse and biomechanics, Draaisma discusses how scentwork improves horses' learning abilities, development, socialisation, and their bond with the handler. Readers will learn how to have their horses explore their environment, participate in scentwork games and follow a footstep track to find a missing person or food bag.

Easily accessible for anybody working with horses at any level, scentwork can be done in small areas as well as in larger spaces on various surfaces. Whether veterinarian, behaviourist, trainer, animal-assisted therapist, equine physiotherapist, osteopath, or interested horse owner, this book promises to bring both you and the horse enormous benefits, strengthening the human-animal bond.

Rachaël Draaisma has always lived with and had a passion for dogs and horses. In 2002, she decided to make it her profession. Achieving several diplomas, she started to work full time as a trainer and behavioural consultant, first with dogs, later with horses. Her best-selling book Language Signs and Calming Signals of Horses, published by CRC Press in 2017, has been translated into several languages. Another pillar of Draaisma's working life with horses revolves around equine mental stimulation and scentwork, and she has developed an extensive method to undertake scent tracking with horses, a new tool in enriching the human-equine relationship. Draaisma travels throughout Europe and the globe to provide workshops and lectures on calming signals of horses, equine mental stimulation, and scentwork.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《馬匹嗅覺訓練》是第一本實用指南，教導如何將嗅覺訓練融入家養馬匹的生活中，以增強行為、福祉和人與動物之間的聯繫。嗅覺訓練是馬匹與訓練者領域中的一個新學科，專家作者Rachaël Draaisma為讀者提供了一系列資訊，使他們能夠將這一技術付諸實行。除了有關馬匹鼻子和生物力學的理論背景資訊外，Draaisma還討論了嗅覺訓練如何改善馬匹的學習能力、發展、社交以及與訓練者的聯繫。讀者將學會如何讓馬匹探索環境、參加嗅覺訓練遊戲，並沿著足跡追蹤以尋找失踪的人或食物袋。

嗅覺訓練對於任何與馬匹工作的人來說都非常容易接觸，無論是在小範圍還是較大空間的各種表面上都可以進行。無論是獸醫、行為學家、訓練師、動物輔助治療師、馬匹物理治療師、整骨醫生，還是有興趣的馬主，這本書都承諾為您和馬匹帶來巨大的好處，增強人與動物之間的聯繫。

Rachaël Draaisma一直與狗和馬生活在一起，並對它們充滿熱情。2002年，她決定將其作為職業。獲得多個文憑後，她開始全職擔任訓練師和行為顧問，最初是與狗合作，後來轉向馬匹。她的暢銷書《馬匹的語言信號與安撫信號》，於2017年由CRC Press出版，已被翻譯成多種語言。Draaisma的工作生活中另一個重要支柱是馬匹的心理刺激和嗅覺訓練，她開發了一種廣泛的方法來進行馬匹的嗅覺追蹤，這是一種豐富人與馬之間關係的新工具。Draaisma在歐洲及全球各地旅行，提供有關馬匹安撫信號、馬匹心理刺激和嗅覺訓練的工作坊和講座。

作者簡介

Rachaël Draaisma graduated from the Radboud University in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. She has always lived with and had a passion for dogs and horses. In 2002, she decided to make it her profession. Rachaël obtained several diplomas and then started working as a trainer and behavioural consultant, first with dogs and later with horses. In 2013, she completed the TR (Turid Rugaas) International Dog Trainers Education course. Under Turid's supervision, she began studying the calming signals of horses, filming domesticated horses, and analysing the resulting material. The study grew, is ongoing, and led to a complete focus shift from dogs to horses. It also led to the worldwide publication of the book Language Signs and Calming Signals of Horses by CRC Press.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)

Rachaël Draaisma 畢業於荷蘭奈梅亨的拉德堡大學。她一直與狗和馬生活在一起，並對它們充滿熱情。2002年，她決定將這份熱情轉化為職業。Rachaël 獲得了幾個文憑，然後開始擔任訓練師和行為顧問，最初是與狗合作，後來轉向馬匹。2013年，她完成了 TR（Turid Rugaas）國際犬訓練師教育課程。在 Turid 的指導下，她開始研究馬的平靜信號，拍攝馴化馬的影片，並分析所產生的資料。這項研究不斷擴展，並導致她的重心從狗轉向馬匹。這也促成了 CRC Press 出版的書籍 Language Signs and Calming Signals of Horses 的全球發行。
