S1E1: Ethical Horse Racing pt. 1 w/ Shelby Dennis (Milestone Equestrian)

Horse Racing.

 

It's a controversial subject amongst horse lovers and everywhere. As the most public horse sport, it's naturally under a lot of scrutiny--as all horse sports should be. But in recent years, there has been a lot of call for the entire racing industry to close its doors for good, which begs the question:

 

Does horse racing need to be shut down entirely? Or are there practical shifts that we can make to better the lives and safety of these young horses?

 

In part 1 of this 2-part series, we sit down with Shelby Dennis, a LIMA-based positive reinforcement trainer and Certified Equine Behavior Consultant, and former racehorse exercise rider, to discuss the issues plaguing the racing world in hopes of discovering a way to move forward towards a more ethical future for all horses.
