| Buck Brannaman |
| Buck Brannamans method of training focuses on communicating with horses, reading their body language, and making them feel safe so that horse and rider can achieve a true union. He considers himself a horse gentler, not a horse breaker, and in THE FARAWAY HORSES, he shares the knowledge he has cultivated over a lifetime. And he provides a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse of Robert Redfords movie The Horse Whisperer, for which he was the technical advisor. |
| Horse Facts & Trivia |
| The largest horse recorded in the Guinness World Records was a Shire gelding named Mammoth. He was 21.5 hh and weighed close to 3000 lb. A horses tooth grows an eighth of an inch every year. Lipizzaners are born with dark coats. They gradually lighten until they are around 7 yrs old. By that time their coats are pure white. |
