Could not have written a better, more concise response to yet another scandal and abuse case in the highest ranks of competitive dressage!!!👏👏👏💔🥺
This was not a 'quick' mistake, or momentary lapse of judgement - this is repetitive, systematic abuse to get results quickly - and the world needs it's eyes opened to the truth behind the trainers!!!🤯😭😔
If a coach, trainer, or competition doesn't allow full disclosure on their methods.....then what exactly are they hiding behind the scenes?🤔
Sadly more and more truth is trickling out - which is devastating for the horses and the sport of dressage - but it is a truth that sadly needs to come out, for the welfare of our beautiful equines!!!!💖🐴🦄💖
Thank you Academic Art of Riding - Bettina Biolik for such a thoughtful, honest post!🙏

A huge shout out to an amazing local artist for literally one of the best gifts we have ever given one of our beautiful friends!!!🙏💖🙏
A late post due to being so busy (who isn't lol??!!) - but we recently had one of our incredibly lovely agisters who is like family, and almost a daughter to us, celebrate her 18th birthday🥳🥳🥳 - (after knowing her since she was 8 or 9 years old!!💞💞💞)
I always knew I wanted to give her a portrait of one of her horses to memorise her huge milestone.....then tragedy struck in her losing her childhood pony!!!😭💔😭 Suddenly the portrait subject became incredibly crystal clear and I knew exactly who would be able to deliver the perfect gift!!!👏👏👏
Enter the picture Artworx by Mattho - an absolutely brilliant artist I have known since my high school years!!🤗 Not only did he continue to liaise with me through the choice of picture to draw, but also through the decision of whether to go with colour or black and white.....right down to the choice of frame colour to match the room the picture would be in!!! And the outcome....to say the very least....was absolutely exquisite!!!!💖🙏💖
I'm so utterly delighted for Tessa Duldig to have such a beautiful forever memoy of her gorgeous boy Harri to keep forever, and cannot honestly ever thank Michael for the hours, and hours, and hours.....and then some.....of the time and effort to make such an incredible memory of such a beautiful pony for one very special person!!!🙏🙏🙏
Also a ginormous thank you to Mandy Carapetis and Bill Carapetis who so generously came in to share help us make this beautiful gift a reality for Tess - we can't thank you guys enough either!!!💖🙏💖
If anyone EVER is wanting a portrait done of any special being - be it pony, puppy, person or otherwise - please, please contact Michael and see what he can do for you!!!!👏💖👏

'You don't have to show up to every argument or drama that you are invited to join!!'💖🐴💖

This is something we truly pride ourselves on here at Glenferrie, with our business and property also being our home🥰 We truly strive to make it a place where people can look forward to their precious time with their horses - and feel calm, relaxed, happy and able to enjoy every moment they spend here!!🙏💖

Life is truly too short to get caught up in other people's drama - and horse time is something we all have to squish into our busy schedules - so it is of utmost importance we create an environment and atmosphere that people can truly look forward to, and enjoy immensely!!💖
