Horse colic. YIKES! This is one of the "things that can go wrong" we fear the most, for horses. Tellington TTouch offers several things you can do, while waiting for the vet. Having something YOU can do can help your horse (possibly even helping to relieve the colic). And, it can help YOU too - because having something useful to do is soooo much better than feeling helpless and not knowing what to do!

p.s. the ear work shown here can help ANY animal, including humans, when experiencing "shock" of some kind. It's a great addition for our First Aid knowledge kit!

The Tellington TTouch offers some simple, yet effective, techniques to help your horse relieve tension in times of distress.

"An important part of the Tellington Training philosophy is to not take a horse’s undesirable behavior personally but rather assume that he is doing the best he can in that moment, and is simply reacting to some kind of perceived stimuli. This understanding helps you (like the horse) to act, rather than react, and be a more proactive guide for your horse. This is what is important to me: With this attitude, you will not just turn your horse into a safe partner, but you will also cultivate and improve your own self-control and flexibility. These abilities create a foundation on which you can build a lifelong partnership and two-way connection with your horse."

So great to see this kind of riding happening among some of the very top riders and levels in the world.

Thank you Silke Rottermann for taking these great photos this weekend at the Ingrid Klimke symposium in Germany and sharing them with us.

This is Abraxxas, Ingrid's 19 years young Hanoverian who won two eventing Olympic team gold medals in 2008 and 2012. He also placed highly in Badminton and Burghley before becoming a wonderful school-master first for Ingrid's 14-year old daughter Greta and now for her youngest, Phillipa. This small horse has a huge heart.

On the photos Braxxi's life-long groom Carmen Thiemann is riding him in a Tellington TTouch® Liberty Neck Ring. She demonstrated all transitions, jumped, did rein-back and flying changes in front of a delighted audience.

Ingrid rides several of her horses in the Liberty Neck Ring. Her horses also get turned out in fields and hacked in the nearby forest. To learn more about her training philosophy and techniques please visit her website at:

You can learn how to use a Tellington TTouch Liberty Neck Ring in our Virtual Learning Center:

Ingrid was also featured in Linda's dressage book "Dressage with Mind, Body and Soul" which you will find here:

Looking for a kind, gentle, interesting, fun, and very practical way to help your pet - and to build a great relationship with them at the same time? Tellington TTouch is all of that...

The first time I saw a book on TTouch, my immediate response (within looking at 3 pages in the book) was... "CLEARLY, I need to go learn THIS!!" :-) And it was true! I loved it right from the start, and love it now too 🦊🐧🐴🦅🐳💜

Tellington TTouch Training is a specialized approach to the care and training of cats and dogs. Tap into this hands-on therapeutic technique used by veterinarians, zoo personnel, and animal shelter workers.
