Dressage as cure all

[PSCHOPony@aol.com]

Sure dressage is not a cure all, but it sure helps.  Just like anything
though, it can be abused.  But with care, it can teach your horse many things.
I don't think people should be steered away from it, but they should know how
to use it.  Some people get on and pull their horses noses to their chests to
look collected.  If they read the books, go to lessons, talk with trainers,
they will find that dressage is useful for all disiplines, including
endurance.
