Train Horses for the Fun of It by Dr. E. G. Kettelkamp
Monona doctor E G Kettelkamp keeps eight horses and ponies at a small stable behind his residence. He trains them for recreation not competition using a soft voice, a calm approach, and light taps with a whip to guide rather than punish. His daughter Mary aids in demonstrations and shows horses at local fairs.
