Horsey people have got to stop percieving thier animals as objects of pleasure and understand they are dealing with sentient beings who feel pain, sorrow, happiness ect. just like we do. A lot of people hide pain too.

yes! so many levels of yes! past trainers have told me to jam my heels down as a hunter rider which is caused me some nasty knee problems. I still have to wear a brace sometimes. This entire video is stuffed full of amazing information.

"Why didn't you save X number of horses instead of one horse?" Such reductivism would lead to saving no horses... only breeding embryos.

I diagree about heels down. If the rider is riding correctly, theres no problem with heel down. These people must not be riding correctly. 1st the expert rider isn't forcing their heel down. Nothing is forced in correct riding. It just naturally goes down. Proper leg position is important. Yes, Ive been trained by professionals on the forward seat, jumping. I jump, foxhunt, & the experienced riders have no trouble with heels down. My circle is professional horse riders. Only the ball of your foot is on the iron. Ive been around horses since 5yrs old years, for over 45yrs. My life is horses 24/7.

Yes, this is the point of the video. Heels down without context. Many people FORCE their heels down as a result of trainer instruction, but without having it come from a whole rider perspective. This will result in tension.

I love this horse lipping the lady the whole time. I have a really nice pleasure saddle I have been thinking about selling. It is definately for a large horse. This makes me feel I should take it to potentual buyers instead of having them come see it. I would rather see it go to a horse it actually fits.

If possible why not ride bitless? It is much more comfortable and relaxed. Building a trustful relationship is satisfying, peaceful and healthy for the rider and horse. Respecting God' creation a big step in the right direction! Watch: "God of wonders"

Always going to the vet bc I find observations my horse isn't right. Some things get solved. Others don't. Problem is getting a diagnosis. Spending thousands and thousands and not getting much help other than shots in the dark. That's the issue that needs addressing.
@equitopiacenter86506 ай бұрын
Yes, we have a long way to go in order for the industry at large, from owners, breeders, vets and farriers, to saddle fitters, bit/bridle fitters and bodyworkers, to be able to adequately care for our horses from a preventative aspect. Learning to collaborate from some kind of evidence and research based protocols should be the way forward for all. We are trying to guide these changes on our education platform at www.equitopiacenter.com

What hope is there for owners of lame horses when an expert in lameness isn’t available? Lots of horses are lame and will continue to be ridden and even punished for exhibiting pain.

I am really fond of Schleese and have learned a lot from his explanations. My experiences as saddlefitcoach are a bit different about the front tree-angle. The movement of the scapula is not straight back, as it is seen in standing. It moves towards the body/the withers and flattens. If you just follow the standing shoulder, often the saddles are to wide. Every horse is different and has different history. Holes behind the shoulderblade makes it more difficult. Very often, with a correct fitted saddle, you will have a fronttree that has the angle of a nice filled trapezium and the front of the saddle, where cushions come together with rest of the saddle; the front line of the saddle, follows the angle of the shoulder. The cushions than, are necessary to match or level missing muscles or level movement. I personally don't like the reducing in the cussions in front. Often it is not the correct place and most of the time the saddle 'parks' itself there, behind the scapula. That will cause problems again. It pinches more and more and water will stay in the soft tissues. Cussions can be over the scapula, as long they follow the build of the horse and are soft (still dence enough) to follow the movement. Exceptions on above are often Frisians and Arabians, or mixes. The shoulder movement is wider. In another video Schleese explains it a bit more like I did now. Of course: a saddle should be checked at least once or twice a year. Your horses change during their life! Learn yourself and work with a saddler/saddlefitcoach.
