[haflingerfriends] Re: HAFLINGER DRESSAGE

Thanks for the new link. I also watched the other one, and it was cute, but as you said, the title is misleading. I also like your disclaimer. lol

For starters, in Dressage, it is the rider who acknowledges the judge with a bow of the head; it is NOT the horse who bows! LOL And there are numerous other differences such as laying down or walking along in step with a human. It's a cute video, to be sure, just not the real thing in case one is interested in Classical Dressage training for a Haflinger.

If you don't give a flip, then don't sweat it; if you do care about the correctness of a training method, then you now can see the difference. Different strokes for different folks, right?
