Description
The TI Connection
Trakehners International started as an international friendship of Trakehner lovers from Germany and the United States. What began over 2 years ago as an idea of how to connect the Trakehner fan clubs in the world is slowly maturing into the lofty goal of being the number one place on the web for Trakehner news, features and sales horses for customers around the globe. As TI partner Kim Hunter points out so fittingly: The Trakehner reputation for being "too hot", "too temperamental", etc. continues to be a source of annoyment to me. True, Trakehners aren't for everyone but often this opinion is held by an equestrian who's never seen (much less ridden) a Trakehner. If this mindset is not addressed, those of us who ride and breed Trakehners run the risk of becoming myopic; we know the "too hot, sensitive" mindset is a mis-conception born of rumour and innuendo, but unless we take active steps to educate the public, we're simply left with the alternative of thinking among ourselves how wrong "they" are.
One of the primary goals of Trakehners International is the promotion of the breed. Kim's background in advertising management at international corporations like The Walt Disney Company and Clear Channel Communications, make her uniquely qualified to develop avenues for doing this. Education is the most powerful tool we have against misinformation, misconception or just plain ignorance. The more people who are open to experiencing this wonderful breed, the more powerful the "word of mouth" will become in support of the Trakehner.
That the Trakehner is used to reinforce type, nerve and beauty in nearly all other warmblood breeds yet compete and win against them as a separate breed puts the Trakehner in a class of their own. Similar to thoroughbreds and Arabians, the Trakehner can improve other breeds, but if the reverse is tried, type is diminished.
