Dear Lesley - I have recently encountered a situation with trainers ( not mine) where clients are told not to touch their horse, groom or even walk their own horse. Almost like trainer "guru" style - where the trainer is in control and the owner is not. I have recently met someone who has been under this kind of "trainer control" who has owned her horse for three years! And still has very limited contact. I can understand limited contact when a trainer is hired to work with your horse and asks that you take a back seat while they work with the horse for 8 weeks or so. But 3 years ? I know a few good horse women who are very capable as far as leading their horse around the stables or grooming them etc. But the trainer insists "hands off" this is just plain weird to me. I thought you all might take a look into this. Love your magazine! And love my horses! Proud mother of Daphne ( a rescue) and Hadley, my snow cap appaloosa!

I am a subscriber and every month look forward to the articles on specific breeds. I own an American Saddlebred as well...and am hoping you will do a feature on the breed in the coming months
