How cruel! 👿

👿 👿 👿 how awful! I didnt either! I thought they used weighted boots to get the high stepping gait of those breeds, not pain infliction! 👿

I knew about that, I highly disapprove. You can teach a horse to do that step without hurting them, I am sure. It may not be as fast, but horses like to please and will eagerly learn things if approached right.

I certainly do not approve of that (or pain inflicted on any creature for any reason whatsoever!) 👿 👿

At least her in Canada (and it was supposed to be in the states too, for more than the last 6 years) It’s actually illegal, but that doesn’t meant some stupid humans don’t still do it. I didn’t actually look at the link, just it’s title so I don’t know if they also included the variant that involves the Shoes. Some of the shoeing styles I find ok, or fine, but some of them are very little better than the actual soaring itself.

👿 I don’t like that either. That is just horrible! 👿

👿 They need to catch those who do it, make them step on something sharp and make them walk and jump with the stuff stuck in their feet!! 👿
