"Bombproof Your Horse" Sgt. Rick Pelicano with Lauren Tjaden - 2004
 
Imagine hitting the trails or entering the arena with a horse that completely trusts you, no matter what surprises jump out along the way. Bombproof Your Horse by Sergeant Rick Pelicano is the ultimate guide to turning a spooky, unpredictable horse into a confident, calm, and reliable partner. Written by a real-world mounted police officer, this book breaks down professional training secrets into simple, step-by-step techniques you can actually use. You will learn how to safely expose your horse to terrifying sights and sounds—like flapping flags, loud balloons, sudden noises, and strange objects—without anyone getting hurt or stressed out.
 
Instead of fighting your horse's natural instincts, this book shows you how to build an unbreakable bond of trust and clear communication from the ground up. Mastering these desensitization skills will not only make your rides incredibly safe, but it will also massively boost your own confidence as a rider and handler. Whether you are dealing with a young green horse, preparing for a busy horse show, or just wanting to enjoy peaceful trail rides without the constant fear of a sudden spook, this book gives you the exact blueprint to handle any situation like an absolute pro.
