Welcome to Dangerous at Both Ends, Tricky in the Middle.
In the world of equine behaviour and training, there's a vast sea of information, research, and opinions that can sometimes make your head spin. It can be challenging to sift through it all and distinguish fact from fiction.
So, how do we navigate this?
Well, we've decided to tackle it head-on through candid, informative chats.
We dive deep into the critical topics, exploring different perspectives in an effort to reach well-informed conclusions.
Join us as we demystify the world of horses, separating myths from realities, and empowering you with knowledge to foster a deeper connection with your equine companions.

Exposing Equine Abuse - RTÉ Investigates Making a Killing
In this urgent and eye-opening episode, Barbara and Jen dive into the recent revelations from the RTE documentary "Horses Making a Killing." We discuss the illegal practices and fraudulent activities uncovered within the equine industry, including falsified documents, unsafe transport conditions, and inhumane treatment at slaughterhouses.
Join us as we break down the key points from the documentary, provide historical context, and highlight the broader implications for horse owners in the UK, Ireland, and Europe. We also include powerful interviews from a recent protest outside Shannonside Foods (15th June 2024) with Maddie and Kelly from My Lovely Horse Rescue, offering their insights.
Listener discretion is advised due to the distressing nature of the content discussed in this episode. For those who find the topic too challenging, we offer alternative ways to engage with the material through a written summary and updates available on our Facebook and blog.
