We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

Subject: Noble Monarch does some dressage.

I take NM, bareback, out into the arena. (I'm not a dressage rider so I won't be really descriptive) He's a bit anxious, but not disobedient. We practice a simple dressage test which he glides through. Then we move on to another test. He's perfectly fluid up until the sitting trot on a diagonal, then he breaks into a canter, tail flagged, head thrown. When he tries to slow I keep him at the canter, bring him back to a walk only when he starts behaving again. We do the test again. This time he does much better. Then we cool off.
