This is the first part of the film called

I get it Ellen....and we all could use a refesher course in not doing dumb things !!!
I found when I got my first green horse after having a wonderful old gal for 17 years (who quite frankly taught me everything I know about horses and kept me safe) that my greeny needed me to learn all over again that I am supposed to keep this little partnership on the road....'cause Ziggy knew nothing about what to do and how to keep us out of trouble......
REFRESHER course 101 !!!!

I love all your dvd's and hope there will be more...........Cheers...Ann

Comment by Ellen Ofstad on February 13, 2010 at 6:08pm: This introducion has been posted on YouTube before, and I have gotten a lot of negative feedback on it there. Many of the comments are about the title; "Horses with Problems" and they say that the horses aren't the problem, they aren't poblem horses, but the people are doing it wrong.
I agree.

The horses DO have a problem, but that is not the same as saying that they are problem horses.

The owners aren't idiots either, they are doing the best they can. The difference here versus YouTube is that here I will be posting the whole film, so for those of you that might be thinking that I think that what you see in this particular clip is how I want people to handle horses... please go and look at the clips that follows after this one. If you look at my videoclips you will find the first 12 clips in the series :)

If you have any comments or questions, feel free to ask !
