Recently I saw a post in one of the clicker groups asking people about how they feel about riding and whether it was appropriate. At the time I responded my 2 pence in a summary. A friend and fellow trainer asked me if I would write an article and I thought - why not?
I found that I rather enjoyed writing it, thinking about the subject and putting my thoughts together. So I thought I would start a blog where I can add any articles, thoughts and stories - so I intend to write more in the future.
My first blog post is my article on riding, when I feel it is appropriate and my strategy to determine whether it is or isn't. I have taken a holistic approach, partly because I wanted to write something that people could use as a guide; but also because often times people only consider one aspect i.e. behavioural reasons, ethical reasons or physical reasons - and I feel that actually it is all important.
Since I intend to write more, Is anything that you would like to read in more detail? Or a topic that would interest you? I can add these to my list of ideas. Plus - are there any times you would like to add that riding would or would not be appropriate?
