Reichert Celebration

One of the Largest Prize Money Shows in America.

This is not what American Riding is about, these are just people who are too stupid to know any better.

@KaseyRenee03 ...When someone looks at this video and sees nothing wrong, then that someone knows they are as uneducated, as cruel and as unskilled as the riders in this video. This is why the American stock horse breed associations really need to start educating their members. It's not your fault, Kelley, you just haven't had any good learning opportunities yet...but thankfully, you can start now. Give your 2 year olds a break so they can mature while you start doing some research.

Its like a scene from Dantes Inferno. A lot of riders need an awful lot of education.

@twix2456 THANK YOU!!! My sentiments exactly!

@OCQH :And it's okay to abuse your spouse if you bring a dozen roses home after the fact, right? Just so you know, we aren't only bashing them on the internet, we're dealing with it through legal channels, too. No one says you have to push yourself to limits, that's your choice. Learn how to ride so it's not such a chore. If horse feels they have to 'push back' - ask yourself what are you doing wrong? It's about harmony and teamwork, not slavery and punishment.

@OCQH Alright, so you've proven you're not a mathematician. And you yell. But the point is, any of those abusers (or trainers, as you call them) are free to view the video of how stupid and mean and uneducated they look right here. Please feel free to forward it to them.

@4gorden The problem is there are so many uneducated folks that think bloodlines mean something and money means more...these are living, breathing, feeling horses being abused here, you think they care about bloodlines and money...I think they don't. I think they care about pain. That's where people like you and people like me will always differ.

Sitting on the internet bashing the QH circuit, which is pretty well known and successful isnt doing too much for ya. Look around at a few other breed circuits or even associations, dressage, jumping, reining. HORSES ARE ATHLETIC ANIMALS. WE PUSH OURSELVES TO THE LIMIT RIDING THEM AND IN RETURN THEY HAVE THE WILL TO PUSH BACK. ALL THOSE HORSES AT THE REICHERT ARE PROBABLY WAYYYYYYYY BETTER TAKEN CARE OF AND MAINTAINED THAN 1/2 THE HORSES IN THE COUNTRY

so maybe the 5 horses you videoed...the only ones you focused on...didnt look too great, maybe you should have asked those traines if they wanted to see what they looked like, ANY GOOD HORSE RIDER KNOWS THAT WHAT YOU THINK YOU FEEL AND WHAT IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE CAN BE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS,

[4gorden]

I think these horses look great. some good bloodlines loping around in those pens and winning alot of money.

@OCQH : Do some math. There was nowhere near 100 horses in this video. And even if it happened AQHA etc allowed 5 out of every 100 horses to be openly abused against their welfare rules...why? How did those 5 horses get to be the lucky ones that stewards didn't see the prohibited equipment or abuse on? Horse abuse is horse abuse. 5 times or 100, it is still wrong. Only one dead lame horse out of 40...so that must mean it's okay to ride it, huh?

[OCQH]

u only focused on like 5 horses.....of about 100....
