EPISODE 35 - HERD DYNAMICS WITH KERRY M THOMAS

If you have listened to a few of our previous episodes you will have probably heard Shelley mention Kerry Thomas from THT Bloodstock.

Shelley initially discovered Kerry when she went down a rabbit hole looking for more information about separation anxiety.

Kerry has a very unique way of looking at, defining and profiling a horse’s herd dynamics.

We talk about how these dynamics are connected to a horses’ individual sensory soundness, and in turn, their performance.

The more awareness we can have about our horses the better we are able to understand them and work with them or to quote Kerry:

"A horse lives by the laws of their nature. Where they fit in to the herd, how they interpret their world, how they learn, how they're coached, how they ultimately perform, is governed by the rules of that nature; it is wise to make an effort, to understand it."

We are sure you will enjoy this incredibly interesting and fascinating conversation!
