That’s what a rancher said should happen to 50,000 wild horses and burros in warehousing during the Today Show segment, “Wild but not Free,” which aired this morning. He went on to add, “what value are they now?”
This underscores so much of what we know about the motivations of the people behind the BLM roundup program, but the NBC segment went further in featuring exclusive video captured by AWHPC of cruel roundup practices, putting the head of the BLM’s program on the defensive and interviewing a 30 year BLM veteran who said, “wild horses aren’t getting a fair shake.”
With this issue now getting national attention, now is the time to pitch in and help us end the BLM’s program as we know it. Here’s an easy way to get involved:
That’s all for now. We’ll have more soon.

Hello Friends,
Sierra was born on May 17 in Saskatchewan Province and came to us at 5 months old through United Pegasus Foundation. Sunshine was born on May 22 in Alberta and was also 5 mos. old when she arrived at our Rescue. We adopted them from the Hemet facility while we were in Valley Center in 2003.
Tawni is our recently transitioned Tango’s daughter, rescued in 2007 through The Animal Farm. Tawni was born at our Rescue on May 4th 2007 when we were in Somis.
PS Interestingly our geldings (Kaptivate, Spirit and recently transitioned Cisco were all born in July). Splash is a June foal. Hmmmm is there anything to that? Are the boys conceived later in the year? Just a coincidence I guess.
Anna is excited every year to bring horse and human together through true, trust-based horsemanship and 2013 is no different.
Join us in picturesque Cody, Wyoming for an adventure you won’t forget, or see how you can apply these unique and powerful methodologies to your horses in East Haddam, CT.
No matter the event, they are sure to change your horsemanship, your thinking and your life, forever.
Take the journey to another world. A world of trust, a world of partnership…
A World of Results!
Anna and the whole Reach Out Team!

You are invited to take part in the next World Peace Card Meditations. Please mark your calendar and forward this email to all your friends.
Thanks for Your Help!
Because so many of you forwarded this email to your friends, there have been almost 307,000 downloads of the World Peace Cards. This is a tremendous increase in the number of people using the cards. So far the total number of World Peace Card sets downloaded, received from our free offer and from our magazine has been nearly 322,000! I hope you have been using your peace cards as their use brings blessings to the world as well as to you.
The next World Peace Card group meditation has been scheduled for Wednesday, May 15 at 7:30pm. This is local time in your time zone. This method has been chosen because of the special effect it produces. As people meditate in each successive time zone the energy builds like a wave which gets stronger and stronger as it circles the planet. Because of the higher dimensional nature of consciousness, the energy of peace will be transmitted for a full 24 hours and continue long after this.
Reports from those who took part in the previous meditations indicate many had powerful spiritual experiences. As they united with those taking part in the meditation a feeling of peace developed within that stayed with each for a long time. Some saw beautiful golden light surrounding the planet and others felt that a web of fear was dissipating and being replaced with trust in others and for our future.
All those who have received the cards are being asked to meditate on world peace at this time. By taking part in this group meditation, you’ll be joining thousands of people who will be using the cards to bring peace to the world. By joining together, the affect we have will be greatly multiplied. This powerful experience and will help shift the vibration of our wonderful planet into a higher state of consciousness. As you use the cards to meditate on world peace, you will be a beacon through which peace will spread around the planet which will have a positive uplifting effect on all people.
Please set aside this time to meditate with the cards. The suggested meditation period is 15 minutes, but of course you can meditate longer if you’d like to. The technique I’d like you to use is based on allowing yourself to be a beacon of peace. The World Peace Cards hold the vibration of the World Peace Grids which have been placed at spiritually significant locations and are relay stations for higher consciousness. By simply opening to their energy, you’ll become a channel for their love and peace which will flow through you to all the people on Earth. To do this, hold the cards in your hands or place them in front of you. Then simply meditate on peace.
We are entering a new era. Our entire planet including all the people and living things are moving into a place where it will be much easier to solve our problems and to create peace, prosperity and happiness for everyone. The World Peace Card meditation will quicken this process, making it easier for people to experience this new quality of higher consciousness and will provide great benefit for all people. Since this benefit will be flowing through you out to everyone on the planet, you’ll be blessed by this experience as well.
Many have received the cards in the mail or in the Reiki News Magazine while others have downloaded them from our web site. If you would like additional copies of the cards, please download them using this link and print as many copies as you can use. Please feel free to give them to your friends. Also, forward this email to anyone you feel would like to take part in the meditation.

We often hear about being the “leader of your herd of two”, and the importance of commanding and maintaining the respect and the trust from your horse at all times.
But, as in the human world, just because you say your the boss doesn’t mean it is true and it certainly doesn’t mean you will automatically garner that respect and leadership. And if you are going to take that leadership role through violence, you may have their fear, but you will never have their trust.
Find out what it takes to be a true leader for your horse in this FREE teleclass with Anna on Thursday Night, May 2nd from 6pm – 8pm.
In only a couple of hours you will find out how to change the entire relationship with your horse!

This article in The Cody Enterprise By BUZZY HASSRICK featured our very own Michaele Dimock!
Michaele is part of the up and coming Train the Trainer class, and her passion for the mustangs is really shining thru! We look forward to seeing what this advocate will do next.
Michaele Dimock describes herself as an “equine eccentric,” or horse lover, as evidenced partly by the number of wild horses she’s adopted.
Her dozen or so mustangs join Belgians, Fjords, Icelandics and quarter horses lucky enough to live on her lower South Fork ranch. She drives the Belgians as teams pulling antique wagons and rides the other horses in dressage or on mountain trails.
“As a 5-year-old, I loved horses,” Dimock said. “I took lessons every chance I got.” As a child she also helped with pony rides.
As an adult, Dimock is studying to become an instructor certified by Anna Twinney of Golden, Colo., an internationally renowned equine specialist. Twinney will visit Dimock’s ranch for the sixth time this summer and conduct two clinics, one on “untouched-horses” for a week and the other on holistic horsemanship for two weeks (see reachouttohorses.com).
For the first untouched-horse clinic in 2010, Dimock acquired 10 mustangs to provide one horse per student. The first two mustangs she obtained through an online adoption, where “it’s not hard to win a bid,” she noted.
She drove to Rock Springs in February to pick up the two McCullough Peaks mares – Corona, a buckskin, and Topa, a black-and-white paint. They foaled, respectively, Tango and India. She also selected two others, St. Patty, a bay, and Niagara, a gray. The latter was admired and later adopted by a Casper friend of Dimock.
That April at an auction in Powell, she chose Caliente, Topa’s daughter from the year before and India’s full sister.
“I wanted to reunite some family,” said Dimock, who’s bothered by the separation of bands that occurs during BLM roundups. “In my own little way, I reunited a daughter with her sister and mother.”
She also adopted Kismet and then bid on a horse among the group left unclaimed at auction’s end, offering $25 for Kitkat, a black mare.
“She looks just like her sire,” said Dimock, who has studied the extensive records kept by BLM.
A BLM official asked Dimock to adopt a horse named Raven, whose owner no longer wanted him. She renamed him Radar.
“Of all the mustangs, Radar has had the most difficult time adapting to his new, domestic environment and, unfortunately, has become a cribber as a result,” she said. “Sometimes it’s hard on these horses.”
Dimock is committed to placing the mustangs she fosters for the Twinney clinics.
“It’s my personal passion to help them learn skills in basic handling and then find them homes so they don’t have to be returned to the Rock Springs holding facility,” she said.
Of the 10 mustangs fostered in 2010, Dimock placed seven through word of mouth and Facebook postings, and with clinic participants who had become enamored with their equine students. She adopted the remainder.
“I’d rather see them left on the range and the population controlled,” she said, to avoid the stress of roundups and holding facilities. “I would like people to consider them as a wonderful horse you can develop trust in.”
The mustangs are good on the range, mountain-savvy and level-headed, in her opinion.
“You can develop a special bond when you take the time to work with a mustang,” Dimock added. She spends time with her mustangs between clinics, documenting their progress with each milestone they reach.
Teaching a wild horse to accept human touch can take 1-3 days, but “once you get to that point, it just takes off,” she said. Early lessons include grooming, haltering, hoof-handling and leading. Next come bathing, “spook-busting” through exposure to blankets and flags, and an obstacle course through which they’re led or herded. Finally they’re led by a rider.
“It’s so easy for them,” Dimock said. “Each step builds on the last one. There’s no fear or worry. It’s trust-based.”
The Twinney clinics are matchless because they’re based on communication, “the language of equus,” she added. “When you learn how to read a horse, you can react appropriately.”
The public is invited to watch the clinics Aug. 12-31 for the price of a donation to Friends of a Legacy, the nonprofit advocacy group for the McCullough Peaks mustangs.
