Karen Rohlf's a visionary when it comes to horse welfare in the dressage world. You can read my article on her work at Canadian Horse Journals. https://t.co/qezI5CFQkQ #horses #dressage #equinewelfare

@jannarden @globeandmail Thanks for tweeting (Xing?), Jann — I hope my article helps raise awareness of some of the issues facing horses. (Thanks also to the Globe for devoting so much ink to horses/animal welfare.)

Thanks to Victoria Shroff @shroffanimallaw for insight into the legal (and other) realities facing horses in Canada (and elsewhere). #equinewelfare #horses

@EleanorWachtel @ShieldsPrize Really enjoyed this interview @EleanorWachtel. (And I’m really going to miss hearing new interviews come fall!)

What’s not to like? #donkey #muzzle

Yes, older women ride horses. (Most do not wear helmets like this one though, with good reason.) #Horses #aging #women

Celebrating Riders (and Re-Riders) of a Certain Age
Riders over 40 – including those 65+ – are the fastest-growing segment of the equestrian world, whether newbies or returning to the sport. #RidersofaCertainAge #matureriders #ridingatanyage

@CBCOntMorning If you're in Ptbo for dinner, try Fresh Dreams. Despite the name, it's a Spanish restaurant and it's excellent. (Also, rather than take the 28/7 to/from Millbrook, consider driving up County Rd 10 to 9. Way less traffic, and 10 is a pretty drive.)

[Li Robbins @LiRobbins]

@JoelleKovach Definitely should be some sort of water-oriented bird. Beyond that I will not go.

@cmhconsulting @PlaidHorseMag Glad you liked the article, Cathleen!

#Ptbo-area veterinarians & staff ditch New Year's Eve plans to help overwhelmed emergency vet clinic. Acc to Dr. Kristy Hiltz, KVEC capacity crisis reflects staff shortage & mental health crisis in veterinary medicine - https://t.co/qd2Qhz5Hu6

Whitey's annual Christmas Day message. (Unlike the Queen he pretty much only makes one point, but he certainly chews it over thoroughly.) #QueensSpeech

[Li Robbins @LiRobbins]

Looking forward to that @paolopp! (And enjoying the beautiful music so far.) #joytotheworld

[Paolo Pietropaolo @paolopp]

No In Concert today - it's time for the annual @CBCMusic Joy to the World Christmas special of concerts from many countries. I'll be presenting Canada's portion featuring @EarlyMusicVan & @PacificBaroque at 3pm in all 🇨🇦 time zones (3:30 NL)

A chance to hear some great live singing in #Ptbo on Dec. 13. (And hey, it's a Monday, so what else are you going to be doing?!) #choir #handel #messiah
