I was once asked a question at a clinic that I had never heard from other trainers, nor had any of the lunchtime crowd come across the question. It made me, and most people, feel uncomfortable. It may make you uncomfortable too.
When we see a horse come up to us in the paddock to be caught, is it Stockholm syndrome at work? When our horse shows a willing compliance to be ridden, shod, tied up, trailer loaded, etc, is it Stockholm syndrome at work?
