Welcome to my new blog, or actually it is not MY blog as such. It is a blog for all of us who is against the abuse that is SO prevalent in equestrian sport today.
Abuse and mistreatment that is so widely accepted, that most does not even recognise it as such.
The horse is "bad" and deserve whatever is done to it!
Forcefull measures are used under the disguise of lightness and "helping the horse understand".
The horse is bended and flexed into all sorts of awkward positions under the same guise, even if all who have ever read more than five words of horse biomechanics will recognise the nonsense behind such a statement.
Luckily more and more open their minds and their eyes to the reality which is modern equestrian sports. They see the abuse and mistreatment, but what to do? where to turn with the frustration? The illusion can seem impossible to break?
Independent medias try to do the impossible and get the discussion started at a higher levels within the equestrian organisations, but this is not an easy task. And neither the local equestrian organisations nor the international equestrian association is willing to acknowledge the extent of the problem.
So if you feel like voicing you frustration, please contribute to this blog, so we hopefully in the end can have enough leverage to get the attention needed.
Any contribution will be apreciated, small as well as large. Send me a photos, a link or?? that YOU think will be relevant, and I will distribute it.
Best to you all
