Boek Horse Types

Author: Drs. E.G.A. Laarakker

This book is the English translation of the Dutch book Paardentypen written by Holistic Veterinarian Eric Laarakker

Recognize your horse according the five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Water and Metal.

 Is your horse really your type of horse? Is he a boisterous Wood type, a sparkling show horse, an everyone’s friend Earth horse, a cool Metal horse or a sensitive Water horse?

Discover in this book why your horse is the way he is. The five elements theory (Wu Xing) is a division of beings in five different character types according to Chinese medicine and is here adapted by Eric Laarakker, holistic veterinarian.

• Wood
• Fire
• Earth
• Metal
• Water

The type does not only influence the character, but also plays a role in the
handling, accommodation, training, feeding en even the health of your horse. In this book you find explanations, recommendations and useful illustrations.

You can also discover which type you are yourself and determine the type of your horse by means of an extensive questionnaire. Learning about the five elements will enable you to better understand, train and look after your horse.
