V - I'm a big believer in hand walking horses for all kinds of reasons and I think you've probably seen the videos that Judy has done when she has taken her horses for walks. It's a special kind if bonding that I really like and I do think it helps them adjust to new environments. -- Laree in NC Doppa & Mura Simon, Sadie and Sam (the "S" gang) "Yet when all the books have been read and reread, it boils down to the horse, his human companion, and what goes on between them." - William Farley
