In the late 1940's, Cook County Community Circus, Gainesville, Texas has a Liberty Horse act. The man who trained and worked with the horses was Vern Brewer. Made a big impression on this kid at that time! Tried to get my shetland pony to do that, but he was too hard headed. Had his own ideas to work with. As I was only about 5, he was smarter than me at that time!

I tried to look them up and this is all I could find. Apparently his wife died this year. www.ebay.com/itm/364094231020?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=0FRdBBGbRXq&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=MY3Hd3KLS-u&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Genuine question - why are their ears back he majority of the time?

[@Equestry]

Ears back is a very broad topic. First, it is important to look at the entire horse. How they are participating willingly, and freely… that is without any physical restraints. Secondly, are they pinned back flat to the head, or moving back-and-forth? To simplify the answer, I would say that they are either concentrating, or interacting with each other. They live together, and they have their own agenda, which I am able to interrupt, but I do see them having conversations all the time. When I look at the whole horse, I do not see anything disturbing or unpleasant. The interesting thing to me is that when they were the most troubled - checking out the waves or the birds taking off at the beach is when the ears are most “picture perfect” forward.
