[RC] Want to help the dressage folks stop rolkur? Here's a way: - Elizabeth Chase
This came across my eventing list:
Dr. Heuschmann and his quest to stop this practice! Has anyone read his book:
Tug of War: Classical vs Modern Dressage?
It explains Rolkur in detail and why it is so bad for the horse. Interesting! I am definitely signing the petition.
"YOU can HELP Dr. Heuschmann put an end to rollkur on Feb. 9th at the next FEI meeting by signing your name to to a list he will take with him. Every voice is needed, it is time to step up and be counted for the good of our horses. Go to www.wu-wei-verlag. com and click "Officials! Stop Hyperflexion! ". If you want to help Dr. Heuschmann prevail, end rollkur and horse suffering please share this message with everyone you know, use your Facebook page, twitter, blogs, phone. Together lets make a difference."
English translation is available in the upper right hand corner of the web page. Dr. H would like to bring 20,000 signatures to the meeting, and he only has 7 days left. There are only just over 2,000 so far....
