Description

Welcome to Dangerous at Both Ends, Tricky in the Middle.

In the world of equine behaviour and training, there's a vast sea of information, research, and opinions that can sometimes make your head spin. It can be challenging to sift through it all and distinguish fact from fiction.

So, how do we navigate this?

Well, we've decided to tackle it head-on through candid, informative chats.

We dive deep into the critical topics, exploring different perspectives in an effort to reach well-informed conclusions.

Our podcast is your guide to understanding and dissecting tricky, and potentially dangerous topics of equine behaviour and training. We approach these subjects with a commitment to science, compassion, and constructive dialogue.

Join us as we demystify the world of horses, separating myths from realities, and empowering you with knowledge to foster a deeper connection with your equine companions.

Tune in to Dangerous at Both Ends, Tricky in the Middle and embark on a journey of discovery with us 🐴🎙️
