Dave Elliott - bitting, osteopathy and horsemanship clinic- 50542 Range Road 225
County of Leduc, Alberta- He's back! And with even more knowledge and experience. Dave has spent another year learning osteopathy and developing an even greater understanding of what it is that bits do to horses and how we can better work with our horses to improve their performance and well-being. In his own words, "After building bits for a number of years," says Dave, "I realized the need to better understand all the principles of bitting, which include the anatomy of the horse, training techniques and bit mechanics. I am furthering my education in anatomy, which relates to the design of horse bits. With added knowledge, I can help educate customers to better understand how and why bits function." If you can't come for the weekend - come for Friday evening at Looma Hall. Doors open at 6 pm.
