I love horses… Do you?

Please take a moment to view the two attached links regarding the travesty that happened last weekend at the Festival of the Horse in England when Pat Parelli attempted to resolve a problem with the horse Catwalk, owned and ridden by British show jumping icon Robert Whitaker.  And please post on as many networking websites as possible.  For my dutch friends, please post this on Bokt.  For everyone else, please help stir this pot.  Enough is enough!!

The first link illustrates the outrage that so many people feel after witnessing the shameful event.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gf7w_1ifus&feature=youtu.be

The second link is to a very provocative video blog response to the sham by Canadian horseman Chris Irwin.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGfqLkonBg0
