About Susan Jan Hornstein

Susan Jan Hornstein is a Executive Director and Founder at WELL TRAINED HORSES at WELL TRAINED HORSES. Colleagues describe her as "As a former dairy man on a family-owned operation in Germany, I truly value Susan's ability to communicate with rescued horses, which have been abused and neglected. Susan's special understanding of horse language is beyond phenomenal. Susan whispers to the horses in the horse/human relationship in a unique way. In one case, a horse acted out. She calmed down this disturbed horse without even touching it, she made it feel safe, Susan has a non-violent, non-physical approach where the horse trusts a human-being again. Susan has the sense to bring the rescued horses back together again in a social working environment, where the horse can begin to socialize again with each other. The basic of Susan's work is consideration for the horse's psyche, communication via body language that is understood by the horse and interaction with this powerful, beautiful creatures in accordance with nature. I feel blessed to have worked with Susan as a volunteer and received horse training." and "Having worked with Susan Jan at Well Trained Horses Equine Rescue in many capacities, it's impossible to list all of her competencies in a tiny LI recommendation. Susan Jan is a capable and savvy business woman and a gifted, experienced, and super-knowledgeable horse woman. She has the ability to manage and direct a vast array of projects -- and people. The integrity and diplomacy with which she approaches equine rescue is unparalleled. I have watched people and horses under her care and supervision blossom and thrive. I feel very fortunate to work with and learn from Susan Jan Hornstein."
