We are horse riders - you don't have to understand us! Written by Inge Allard

We are horse riders- you don't have to understand us! Real riders believe in the 11th rule: With the inside leg and the outside rein. We know that all external medicine is either waterproof, blue or yellow. We have no problem, to eat a sandwich directly after mucking the stable. We know, why a thermometer has to have a... string attached on the end. We are not welcome in laundrettes. We don't think a.........nything sexual if someone talks about chains, whips or leather. We can lower our voice instantly by 5 octaves to shout at a horse scratching the floor. We will rather quit a relationship than our hobby. We try to talk to our car to make it up the hill. We have better insurance for our horse than our car. We can tell 20 different descriptions and causes for bulges and bumps on a horse. We know more about our horses diet than our own. We use words which would even embarrass a sea man. We have less to wear than our horse, our hobby is creating more work than our job. And we know that mucking a stable is the best cure for depression. If you are a real rider please post that on your Facebook♥

I have seen cases lately of horses injured by lay chiropractors and want to
emphasize to owners that they need to educate themselves so that they can protect
their horses. Here are a few tips that will help:

1. Make sure your horse has been examined by a veterinarian to determine
... that it is not a lower limb lameness, neurological issue, or a non-chiropractic
medical issue.
2. Ask the chiropractor about their training. Ask specific questions about course
names, locations and hours attended. Don’t hesitate to postpone the visit
while you do the research on credentials. Many people who call themselves
chiropractors have had no formal training or a weekend course.
3. If any methods are extreme or harsh, stop the visit immediately. Your horse
can’t tell you if a treatment method doesn’t feel right so be very aware of
what is going on.
4. Ask lots of questions. Someone competent will not mind giving you answers.
5. Long lever techniques can be particularly dangerous. This is where the
practitioner is using the lower limbs to adjust the spine or pelvis.
