At 7:38am on February 10, 2009, Triple R Equine Welfare Inc. said…: Hi guys. My eyes are falling out of my head, but I wanted to drop in and let you know how thing sare going. The Crisis Network that we set up is beginning to work very well. The offers of help have been amazing, and in less that 24 hrs we close the register for the tie being, with around 400 offers listed for transport, agistment, accomodation, vet nursing. This catastrophe has just devasted very Australian, and every last one of them is doing anything they know how to help. We are creeping up to around 200 fatalities, and they are predicting that it will go a lot higher once emergency service personnel are able to go into burned out areas. We have had complete towns literally wiped off the face of the earth. Just incomprehensible.

Anyhow, there are still fires which aren't controlled, and new threats arise regularly. We are managing to move many horses from areas under threat of imminent fire to volunteered homes and care. We are also moving horses who have survived a fire to Veterinary care. There are some indescribable sights, and the most heartbreaking stories. It really is too much.

As of tomorrow we have hay being trucked from all over Australia into a central point which we have arranged, as feeding surviving stock is going to be one of the many issues people will be left with. Growers and truckers, in many instances, are donating their services.

Thousands of people have been left with nothing but the clothes they're standing in, and towns are blocked off, people unable to return to what's left of their communities as corpses litter the roads. Sorry...just been a long day.

Thank you for letting me have vent. You're all horse lovers, this is an example of a call, we received it yesterday morning...a woman screaming down the phone that her horses were "galloping around with their skin falling off". Just too much. Thank you all.

At 11:55am on February 8, 2009, DressageDiva said…: I wish you the best with the rescues and my heart goes out for all of those affected.

At 10:43am on February 8, 2009, Susan said…: Our thoughts and prayers are with the people affected. What a tragic loss of life.

At 10:42am on February 8, 2009, Gary Stuart said…: Hi Triple R, Any updates would be great, although you probably have your hands full.
How many horses are bring evacuated? In the 100s?

Well I just have to say what a fabulous training video this is. I love your training philosophy and use of the rein and frequent reward for a small effort. This is the same philosphy that I use in my training and breaking-in. You get so much more ...

Helyn Marie Cornille replied to Margaret Kunz's discussion 'saddling' in the group Science Of Motion

Hi Margaret I would suggest to look deeper into the horse's changes. If I understand what you describe, the weight is greater on one shoulder. This might result from unevenness in lateral bending or transversal rotation, or both. In equine, Later...

Not to change the subject, but my young guy is now learning the bounces. My trainer did not know if he had this type of training, so we started from the ground up. I am really excited about this because I am involved, in the training. He does catc...
