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.

Looks like there's someone else cueing the sit-up off camera - just the tip of the whip lash is showing
Anonymous,
Thank you for being observant. The picture was posted in regards to my comments yesterday to Earnie Albrecht regarding "by voice command alone" or "leaving the bull hook back stage." It's there, they know it is there, and they know why it is there. Some chose the right option, some don't. When the law enforcement official say's "halt" it's not necessary for him to have the gun in his hand. You know it is there, you have the option of doing what is asked, or you make the wrong choice, and the gun is engaged. Simple concept and given time, every animal understands it. Some quickly, some need convincing.

Well said-their attention is also on the person out of view, not on Jackie.

Just trying to educate so, 1. We can stop shooting ourselves in the foot, and 2. A knowledgeable choice can be made as to what is training and what isn't. Easier to decide who is skilled and who isn't when fan's declare "he/she is the best based on "cute and charming."

Addendum to Chris,
Not to deny the importance of "cute and charming", who's legs would you rather look at Jackies, or the trainer pictured in the below post? I mean really.......
