Thundering Hooves

I am sorry to say that the SpotsNStripes Ranch was smack-dab in the path of the Witch Creek Fire that took out the town of Ramona. I worried for days until Nancy sent a note saying they lost the ranch, but that none of the equines were hurt. The country east of San Diego was horse heaven. It's going to be very tough on the equestrian residents of the area. Just imagine loosing all your horse gear and your house at the same time!!

Just before all that happened, I was working on a short video clip to celebrate the open space my equines enjoy. How ironic that you see them here running past the firewood pile.

Dutch Horses Rescued

This was an incredible event.

Seeing Eye Horse Training

There are so many people that believe the only way a horse can be trained is negative reinforcement (pressure/release). Watch this video to see some clicker training in action.

At Liberty on U-Tube

There are a number of at liberty demonstrations on U-Tube.

This is one I really liked:

Funny Video Clips

David Lichman has a couple of video clips on his website that are quite funny. Watch the Best Horse in Europe and watch Rustler's Rhapsody. They are near the bottom of the list.

He does some nice things with his horses. I found him searching on Liberty Training.
