I was checking my blog statistics today, seeing how much traffic is coming to my blog and where they arrive from, and it came to my attention that many of my visitors arrive from searches relating to rollkur. When I did a search on some of the keyword terms that are bringing traffic to me I found a number of bulletin board posts talking about rollkur, and much of the discussion was targeted at trying to understand what rollkur was, if it was bad, and why it was being done. So… I know I’ve posted on rollkur before and have taken quite a hiatus on it, but I thought it might be beneficial for my readers if I wrote up a simplified explanation of what rollkur is, why it is done, and how it affects the horse.
