I wanted to post something that is of importance to all horse people. When it comes to trainers no one trainer is 100% right in what they do. It does not matter if they are English or Western. They are all a product of their past. Some good and some bad. The goal of any trainer/rider is to work with your horse in a manner that is consistent and agreeable to your horse. Teach from the heart and not the hand. Just as every person is different, so to are horses.
There have been so many fads that I have seen in my 40 odd years and all had some benefit, but none were the only way to do it. It also seems that when someone makes it big then the haters come out to denounce them. Again some good, some bad. You have to choose the best course for you and your horse. Just remember that your horse can't choose for himself. That's your job as a caring and responsible horse owner.
