One of the best duos to be put together at Crystal Springs. “Sweet William” aka “Billy” & Laena Edwards. What an excellent match♥️

yep.

So sadly true...There are so many tools being used to force horses to silently endure whatever people want them to do just for their own human earning and entertainment. And at the same time, just while using such coercive tools, these same people keep speaking about horses loving their job and willingly choosing to take part in it...💔

Oops- not taking care of compliance

Six years after the Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park owners and operators agreed to improve water quality, inaction and failure to comply with federal law causes a shutdown. The Rancho...

So very true.

If anyone, anywhere tells you to pull the horses head down (or uses leverage and gadgets to do so) they have no knowledge of healthy horse biomechanics or of correct training.
The horse's nose must always lead, with the poll highest and the gullet open. The base of the ears mustn't be lower than the withers. The jaw must be mobile. If the horse cannot chew and swallow, the hindlegs cannot operate correctly. If the hindlegs cannot operate correctly, the horse will not be able to jump, or stay off the forehand, or stay sound.
"Don’t be obsessed with the head and neck, learn to feel what the hindquarters are doing." ~ Glenys Shandley

Erik Herbermann, one of the fathers of modern dressage tells us:
“It is wonderful to use the ‘forward and down’ stretching exercise as part of the daily work. We also must keep in mind a suitable balance between work and rest periods during any ride, and we need to schedule adequate days off work and days spent hacking outdoors. Physically tired or mentally soured horses don’ t learn much, other than ways of evading work.”
