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.

Equine Affaire--2008 Do you find something like this educational?
I don't think this video was very educational as it is ecentially a performance of a broke horse and a nice performance. I know Laura well and I think this is the best I have seen her horse work and see she's added a nice trick of spins.
An educational clinic to me would be a horse just started, that would make mistakes so that the training methods used were explained. Only my opinion
Madame Col The spin is not new, it is a roll back. Different from a waltz. The Spanish walk/leg extensions were coming left and right. Wonder why? Wade
