    I recently read "Are Dressage Riders Unfair to Their Horses", by Paul Kathen of TexOver Farms, in the USDF Yearbook. It was a very compelling article, well worth reading. You can see it at Paul Kathen's website at www.tex-overfarms.com by clicking on the Articles link and then looking near the bottom of the list for this article. You may recall that Mr. Kathen came to Lake County a few years back and made a very impressive presentation about dressage at the Hidden Valley Lake stables, which was sponsored by our local Rainbow Ag. Also, I got Mr. Kathen's permission to reprint his article in our CDS newsletter so you may see it there, too.
