i'm not suggesting anything

however, i am aware that anky's training consists of constant rollkur which harms the horse. and that's not a suggestion, it's a fact.

when a horse is behind the vertical for a long period of time, chiefly, as in younger years, their spine is allowed to grow to a point where if their head is lifted, the skull is being poked by the spine.

dann müsste aber auch isabell werth verboten werden wenn sie marionetten training betreibt.

@TheMylifemyway this comment deserves cake!!

[TheMylifemyway]

And another thing is all the people giving out about her riding are probably people who absolutley jack shit about horses the just know there pretty and that if they can go stirring shit they will....seriously grow up! When ye put up videos of ye riding that well at that level then maybe people who know what there talking about might take what ye say into consideration

[TheMylifemyway]

Its so funny cause so many peoplr comment on videos of people riding just like Anky saying how shit they are and they train the wrong way yet she is at the top of her sport with fantastic horses who are all fit happy and still going into the later years. Take Salinero as an example if he was really being riding as badly and treated as badly as people say he is do you think he would still be competing in Grand Prixs at the ripe old age of 17? I dont think so....

@19laurel94 : If it harms the horse, how come Salinero is still doing Grand Prix while he's SEVENTEEN? Most 'dressage' horses aren't able to perform anymore when they're about twelve, I see it everywhere. Still, Anky's horses perform till high age, and not because she 'abuses' them. She knows what she's doing, I don't think we know enough about her way of riding to critisice it. I'm definitely not at her level, so I cant comment. But I see the facts. And her horses are healthy and live long.

[josaldinho1883]

she is talented. 

[timwaagmeester1987]

@toph2828 i make you mad? at least i ride my horse so he can see and breath propperly! and ON the vertical not behind, anky is SHIT like an absolutely crap horsewoman, she has the knowledge to be a good rider and horse woman but instead she rides her horses overbent knowing fine well it has a negative affect on the horses health... Yeah... She is so perfect :\ NOT!
