Re: [RC] 'pound dog' mentality for horses? - Lynne GlazerCan you see the flames from here? The article is not on their website, I'll go down the hill and check it out for myself. It's *against the law* to trip mares, among other restrictions. That's what happened to my Olympia! Double rope burns on 3 of 4 feet, a wood splinter wedged 1 inch into her chest, a 5 inch long, one inch wide cut on one knee, headshy from being chute-loaded and taken to the charreadas...a lot of rehab was required to make her back into the sane horse she had formerly been.I shoot for the Times sometimes, and once I find out the facts, I'm going to do some sho'nuff hollering if it's indeed true. It may be that the charros will be very unhappy to hear that the event that is against the law was reported on. The event was called the "mangana" I believe. Gifted charros can lay them down without landing them on the point of shoulder, but I am outraged to hear it both sanctioned and promoted. The charreadas were underground for many years after the law was put into effect. Lynne On Sep 4, 2004, at 8:14 AM, SandyDSA@xxxxxxx wrote:
