German rider and her training

In case anyone is interested Ms Wels...the rider singled out in the original post has NOTHING to do with rollkur. There is a thread here on this subject in debates I believe.

As far as Ms. C Wels and her abuse of that horse then here is a thread on this.

German ex-toprider caught (again) on hidden camera (*warning* horse abuse) - Chronicle Forums

All of her horses have been picked up.
Her own horses were picked up by animal protection and they guided the Horses to the German boundry so it's now for sure that the horses are really out of the hands of Christine.

You know what one of the sadest things in that is? If the horse had actually defendet itself and hurt her, I'm pretty sure they would have put it down, because it was an "aggressive" horse...
I just don't understand how people can do that. Yet, they always amaze me...Sometimes in really bad ways...

My thought exactly. If the horse would kick the woman (And that would be totally right) the horse would probably be on his way to Italy

Too bad he didnt flip over with her on him and crush her to death..like she was crushing that poor guy. So beautiful so sad... why oh why does this continue?

Just read all about this on Ultimate Dressage, my god it is so incredibly disgusting what she does to this horse.
What is worse is that people allow this to happen... unfortunately using horse abuse in 'training' to reach the top levels is getting common in some areas, most of it is happening in our own backyard and we have no idea! All people want is to win, even if it means by beating the horse into submission :(

I allready saw this vid, I think its cruell and I wish someone would stop her.

I was so socked as I saw that video
I knew it before ( as y'all know I´m from germany )
Somebody I know knows this woman
I think it´s absolutly terrible
For me it´s embaressing to say I´m from germany at this point

O,O that is just sick. That is one of the reason's why I don't like dressage. I understand that it is not always done that way but I just never cared for how the horses look. They do look off balance and just uncomfortable. What is sad is that nearly every discipline has people who use this method of "training". Every discipline in the show circuit started as a way to show the superiority of the horse's natural ability. When you have to start using whips and mechanisms to accentuate the movement, then it is no longer natural. There are a lot of disciplines that I don't like just for that reason, because it is no longer following its original purpose. :"(

SO sad....... my trainer always tells me: 2%rein 98% seat and leg. That poor horse. She's lucky it didnt totally explode. I noticed that he was bucking constantly! So sad.....
