Dr. Kevin Keough, host of the Warrior Traditions and North Star Guardians podcast, interviews Dr. Robert M. Miller, co-author of Natural Horsemanship Explained: From Heart to Hands by Robert M. Miller and Patrick Handley and published by The Lyons Press.
After graduation from Colorado
State University, Dr. Miller settled in Thousand Oaks, California,
where he founded the Conejo Valley Veterinary Clinic. Thirty-one years
later, he retired as a renowned veterinarian and expert in ethology
(the study of animal behavior). Dr. Miller has visited every continent
giving lectures to colleges,
conventions for animal groups, horse organizations, breed associations
and other clients. He has received numerous professional awards for his
involvement with equine associations, production of videotapes, and
lecturing. He has authored several books, and his acute sense of humor
and love of cartoons have provided seven veterinary cartoon books.
Dr. Miller has been on the editorial staff of Veterinary
Medicine, Modern Veterinary Practice, Veterinary Forum, and Western
Horseman and other horse magazines. He is internationally known for his lectures and seminars.

Dr. Miller retired from his veterinary practice in 1987 in order to
devote his full time to the teaching of equine behavior and to support
the revolution in horsemanship that began in the Western United States
in the late 20th Century and is now a worldwide phenomenon. He is best
known for his scientifically
based system of training newborn foals. Called imprint training, if
done correctly, it is the fastest, and most profound method of
permanently shaping a horse's responses and attitude. Imprint training
is now in use all over the world. Visit his website.
