The United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) described the Saddlebred as follows: “He carries himself with an attitude that is elusive of description-some call it ‘class’, presence, quality, style, or charm. The superior air distinguishes his every movement.” For this horse to have a look that is extraordinary to the USEF there are multiple imperfections. With every imperfection comes beautiful outcomes. From the high held headset to the luscious long flowing tails, each trainer has to conform the horse to the so called classy charm look.…

Ever wanted to ride a 1200 pound animal at 40 mph dodging poles with only a piece of metal and a couple straps of leather to control it? I have been running poles for more than three years and all my lessons and clinics had something in common. There was constantly the same advice being given. The best part of running a pole pattern is that you can constantly improve. The pattern always stays the same, 6 poles set down the middle of the arena, all 21 feet apart, you must run all the way down, turn the last pole, weave back towards gate and then the opposite way, then you let your horse run back.…

Horse slaughter is a commonly unknown issue to the public but yet an important issue. One reason horse slaughter should be legalized is it would reduce equine neglect cases and thus reducing the need to rescues. People tend to breed two random horses together in hopes someone will buy that horse, but in reality people tend to buy more horse than they really need. This means the below average rider will buy the above average horse which leaves the below average horses unmarketable. From experience horses are expeive to keep, due this and the fact below average horses are difficult to sell, people tend to reduce care on these horses. This reduction in care increases the neglect cases along with the need for rescues. By legalizing horse slaughter in the United States horses bought at auctions would not endure hour long trips without food and water before being slaughtered. There is one major auction in…
“… the amount of suffering that the [horse slaughter ban] created exceded the amount of suffering it was designed to stop,” said Ingrid Newkirk, founder of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) (Jonsson). In 2007, a ban on the inspection of horse meat was placed on the United States, but in November 2011, President Barack Obama lifted this ban with much negative feedback. Some people believe that horse slaughter is the killing of domestic animals, such as the household cats or dogs, and has no possible positive effects. However, horse slaughter in America is not completely a negative change; it has many extremely beneficial changes on the economy and even the welfare of horses.…

More than once, one may question whether they should support someone in doubtful choices that they have made. Of course the family member believes that their family will stand by their side no matter what, but there are boundaries. When an action or choice is so severe to the point that their family has to wonder whether to support them or not, it also questions what type of person they are. This internal conflict of whether to follow what he believes is right or to stand by his family happens to Colonel Startoris Snopes in William Faulkner's short story "Barn Burning." Sarty, a young boy, is brought in front of the court to testify against his father who was accused of burning down a barn. Because Sarty is just a little boy, he wants to stick to his father and he knows he has to lie to keep his father safe. He knows that he is lying in court, and the court knows this as well. The Justice realizes that they have put a young boy in a bad position and let the family go, though. As Sarty is dealing with an inner conflict of whether to stick to his blood by supporting his father or doing what is right, he slowly transforms from a young naive child to a more responsible man who starts to see the real world for what it is even though he has to betray his father in the process. What is more important, family or telling the truth? Family is more important in most cases, but not all. In the beginning, Sarty is completely set on supporting his father no matter what. He even attacks a passerby with defensive rage for yelling "Barn Burner!" But slowly, Sarty realizes that what his father is doing is wrong and beacuse they keep happening, Sarty knows that he must stop his father one way or another or else many others will get hurt. He warns Major de Spain about his father, betraying his entire family. After his betrayal to his dad, Sarty also lost him. It is a big struggle to choose from supporting family to doing what…
“The riding also improves concentration, memory and sequential thought processing, and even helps emotionally disabled riders articulate their feelings”(Horse Therapy for children and Adults With Special Needs). Colored rings are used during some therapy sessions to help the child with color recognition as well as stretching. This also helps develop their cognition skills. The color makes their mind focus on what they are doing and where the rings go. They sometimes play games such as red light, green light or even Simon says. These games focus on cognitive skills and also listening skills to see if the child is paying attention and to see if they are listening well enough to complete what is said. The instructor may also have the rider reach for their horse’s…
