A Blog designed for discussion of topics related to, but not limited to, Circus, Zoos, Animal Training, and Animal Welfare/Husbandry. Sometimes opening up the dialog is the best starting point of all. And if for nothing else when people who agree and don't agree, get together and start discussing it, it will open up a lot of peoples minds. Debate and discussion even amongst themselves opens a window where there wasn't one before.

Laszlo,
Great information, thank you. Were all the horses combined in one act, or were they separate numbers? 36 animals with black, dark grey, and grey must have be beautiful. Why 7 tigereshecken? Possibly worked with 7 of something else?

Laszlo,
The tigereshecken you refer to, were they Knabstrupper, or a different breed? I remember when Knabstrupper were used guite a bit as liberty horses in Europe a number of years ago.
Wade
They were seperate acts but He performed a tableau act with 40-60 horses.The tigerschecken is Knabstrupper .Hans Strassburger was the son of circus director Adolf Strassburger his brother was Carl horse trainer and director.
