"If you yearn for a book that's practical and inspirational, not just aspirational, you'll love Dressage for the No-So-Perfect Horse." —US Dressage Connection


Praise for the first edition:

“I have a pretty huge equestrian library but in the future, any problem that presents itself, this book will be the first place I will go for help.” —Editor, Dressage Today Magazine

“What is perfect is the way this book is put together. With little effort, you can find your problem and get a workable solution.” —Horse Journal

"Finally, a book for the rest of us: riding horses that just didn’t seem to read the manual.... These training tips and innovative ways to turn idiosyncracies into successes will prove to be invaluable to any aspiring rider.” — Equine Journal

 "Foy’s refreshing honesty made me read on. In fact, this book is a sort of inoculation against training despair...there is so much of value.... All I can say is I have a pretty huge equestrian library, but in the future, any problem that presents itself, this book will be the first place I go for help.” — Dressage Today

 "Few of us have a ‘perfect’ dressage horse.... But what is perfect is the way this book is put together. With little effort you can find your problem and get a workable solution.... Many dressage books can benefit any discipline, and this book is a perfect example.” — Horse Journal

 "Foy has worked hard on this book, designed to help riders get the best from their horses, whatever their type or temperament. Simple cures and solutions to common problems—brilliant!... Not everyone has a top dressage horse, but that doesn’t mean you can’t achieve great things—this book shows you how.”— Your Horse Magazine
