Addressing dressage: I love the tall boots, but the horse is a problem
Addressing dressage: I love the tall boots, but the horse is a problem
For some reason, I have begun receiving invitations to participate in something called the Dressage Social Club. Since I don’t own a horse, I just pressed the delete key and thought I’d be done with it. But the e-mailed invites kept popping up in my in box. Because I’m the kind of person I am, I thought I’d reply. I e-mailed a photograph of Morley the Basset and asked if I could join the group. “What is this in the photograph?” said Ulla Hudson, who runs the center with husband Patrick. “That’s Morley,” I replied. “He looks nice, but why did you send this to me?” “I received your invitation, and it sounded like something I wanted to do, but I don’t have a horse.” “You do know what dressage is, don’t you?” came the reply. “Sure it’s a thing you do with horses. In fact, it’s an international Olympic sport where horses are trained in obedience and precision of movement. I looked it up on the Internet. I fell head over heels in love with those tall boots you guys wear. But as I said, I don’t have a horse, so I thought I’d bring Morley.” “A dog to a dressage event?”
