Do You Drive a Horse Trailer with horses in it??
Are you aware of the Code 20 Heavy Trailer Endorsement required for Class 4 or 5 Licences holders to drive a trailer (and it's contents) that weighs 4600Kg or more...??  This is an ICBC requirement; so the ramifications of being found faulty (ie: over 4600kg) and not having the appropriate licensing could, at best, mean that you are stopped roadside, not travelling any further. Or worst case scenario, you are in an accident and found to be driving without the appropriate licensing and your insurance is invalid.

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN TRAINING YOUR HORSE IN THE MOST HUMANE WAY POSSIBLE, IN WAYS THAT HE CAN UNDERSTAND THE MOST....???
THEN READ ON...!!!
To start, and be very clear, this is not some new "fad training method", or fancy new cult of horse training to follow; this is science based research on how horses learn and is something that everyone who has anything to do with training horses....ie: riders, coaches, parents, vets, farriers etc etc....MUST READ.
  Dr. Andrew McLean is an australian vet/event rider/equine behaviourlist, who has done extensive work on studying just how horses learn.  The basic premises of his work can be found his website encapsulated into a very neat package of 11 articles/30 pages.  I encourage you to print it out, and read it over and over.

You owe it to your horse to read this material....!!!
