DRESSAGE ISSUE
* Sherry Koella’s Colorful Path To The Breeding Business
More than two decades in show business, performing from Canada to Las Vegas, Thailand to Malaysia. A brief career flipping houses in Las Vegas. Some dabbling in endurance riding and cattle herding. It’s not the standard résumé for a breeder of dressage horses, but Sherry Koella defies most expectations.
* Ask 3: Why Do You Compete Your Grand Prix Horse In A Snaffle?
The double bridle is required equipment if you’re showing three-star or above in Fédération Equestre Internationale competition. But is it right for every horse? We discussed the topic with three riders who competed their Grand Prix horse in a snaffle at U.S. Dressage Finals.

* Between Rounds With Sissy Wickes: Good Governance In A Bad Time
Now about governance in the time of a pandemic. How do we as horsemen, athletes and businesspeople govern ourselves to endure the best outcome to the global pandemic and subsequent shutdown of so many facets of our industry? How do we work together as a community in order to move forward safely and responsibly?
HORSE CARE
* Rodeo VDL’s Remarkable Recovery
When he was diagnosed with lymphosarcoma, his vet and owner chose a treatment that was aggressive and experimental – and also expensive – but it seemed like it was Rodeo’s only hope.
YOUNG ENTRY
* Between Rounds With Pam Baker: Start At The Beginning And Find Joy In Molding Horsemen
The biggest thing I see lacking today is that people do not teach basics. They don’t start from the beginning; they start somewhere in the middle. People want instant gratification and skip the steps.
