Emily Herold

„Mit Herz und Verstand durch teure Zeiten. Weil ein Pferd kein Luxus ist, sondern Family“

Stallmiete, Tierarzt, Hufschmied, Futter, Versicherungen: Die Kosten der Pferdehaltung sind deutlich gestiegen, und manchmal reicht das Geld einfach nicht mehr. Das ist kein persönliches Versagen. Dieses Buch zeigt, wie Sie Ihre Lage ehrlich einschätzen und Schritt für Schritt Lösungen finden, ohne Ihr Pferd aus dem Blick zu verlieren.

Die Agrarökonomin Emily Herold kennt die Zahlen und beide Seiten des Stalltors. Als Studentin musste sie ihre Stute Bonda verkaufen. Daraus ist ein mitfühlender Begleiter entstanden: Er beginnt mit dem Kassensturz, erklärt, wo Sparen sich lohnt und wo es dem Pferd schadet, und zeigt Wege wie Reitbeteiligung, Miteigentum oder Notfallplan. Checklisten, Rechenbeispiele und ein 30-Tage-Plan im Anhang helfen bei der Umsetzung.

Book tip


Mara Gardot

"A book about mindfulness, dignity and the art of reading horses quietly - and finding yourself in the process."

Mara Gardot is of German-French origin and studied behavioral biology with a focus on horse behavior. She specializes in positive reinforcement, mindfulness, body-oriented communication methods and resonance .

In clear, gentle language, Gardot combines scientific knowledge with lived experience. She describes how body language turns into a relationship, how breath provides security and how touch can become a dialog.

Each chapter opens up a space for meaning and joy - with small, everyday exercises and honest questions for ourselves. Her work stands for an attitude that combines ethics, practice and empathy: Dignity of the horse, safety on the ground, joy instead of function.

Mara Gardot writes as she teaches - clearly, warmly and quietly. Her books are invitations to rediscover relationships: honest, mindful and free of coercion.
