Man I wish I still had my mare to breed to him he is absolutely stunning! Once I get moved down to Texas I am planning on buying another mare so maybe next year I would love to breed my new mare to him. Man my old mare and him would have had a nice baby. She was a dun, but she looked bay. So basically she looked bay with a dorsal stripe:D Your planning on breeding him next year right?

Will have to add here; fabulous job of training him. Sometimes he looks a little scramble-y at the lope, but there is never a moment where that horse hates his job.
Fabulous job. :D A rare find in the western world anymore!

Absolutely gorgeous stud, very worthy of his man bits.

mayfieldk, I think that is kind of an offensive statement toward the western world. I know many well trained horses that love their jobs and I don't consider it a "rare find" at all. If you would like me to start naming them, I will.

It is an offensive statement toward the western world; it's fallen into a huge horrible hole of unhappy, unnatural horses, bloody sides, and abusive training. Don't believe me? Have you heard about the abuse case standing against Cleve Wells, one of the AQHA's top trainers? He's being sued, and Ariat, Horseware, among other sponsers, have already dropped him for the 2009 year.

I went to the University of Findlay for Western training and trained before that with a multiple AQHA and APHA world champion, with cow horses AND pleasure horses.

I know the western world very, very well.

Most horses today hate their job, hate the bits that are yanked in their mouth because they are not handled correctly, and are far, far from any kind of collection because their hip gets turned out and their legs trail behind. For every 'happy' horse you tell me, I could should you 20 videos/movies of unhappy ones, if not more.

I believe, however, my complement was not backhanded. They trained their horse correctly, and anymore in the show world, that's not happening. They took the time it takes to do it right.

When did english come into this? Both have problems. I compete in both so I know them well. I'm not bashing western because English is 'so much better'.

The MAJORITY of western horses, especially WP, are not happy. I didn't say there weren't any at all. I also pointed out incorrect work--there are plenty of happy western horses who are moving with very little, if any at all, collection.

I'm not saying this because I don't like WP. I love it; my horse competes in it, I love riding it.

What I'm saying is that in a show world, where the majority of winning horses are forced into false frames, doctored tails, drugs, and abusive training methods, or just plain incorrect work, these trainers did an excellent job of training their stud.

Hi Guys.
Wow this thread has turned into quite an interesting debate. :shock:
However, thank you for the complements on my boy.
Regarding the debate, yes I too have witnessed many "harsh" techniques
and trainers. But I have had the pleasure to work with a few that take it slower and have a much more softer approach. I have mostly been in the western world so I have seen it a lot in the reining and working cow and pleasure too. I myself don't ride english...my friend rides him English, but I am sure they have some harsh training methods too depending on the trainer. Yes Buckwheat has life pretty good and at a slow, forgiving pace. He was with a pretty strict trainer at one time but that did not last....it was not my style so…well leave it at that. I figure if it takes long for a horse to get it so be it. They are happier learning at their pace that is the way it should be. I think a lot of top riders/trainers are just really pressured to get 2 and 3 years olds broke enough to go to futurities and things and not all the horses they have in training are really that caliber but they try to cram a square peg in a round hole...so to speak, because they are being paid to. Many owners think their horse is capable of anything and everything and that is just not entirely true, some horses are better at certain things than others and there are many factors to this. But trainers are almost forced (to a point) to "make" them do it and with the right rider/trainer they usually can pull it off to a point but that doesn't mean it is right for the horse. Anyway, I do think it happens in the higher caliber riders more due to the pressure of having young horses ready to complete so early and it happens more than most think. I would not ever want to be a paid trainer that is a very hard place to be…in the middle of an owner, horse and show politics and timelines.
