On January 31, 2009 Mark Shaughnessy and Rudy Lara hosted a natural horsemanship clinic at La Mariposa Farm in El Paso, TX. The weather was perfect and those in attendance enjoyed the demonstration that Rudy displayed. The wonderful lunch was catered by Mi Rinconcito Restaurant located at 1605 S Solano Dr, Las Cruces, NM 88001, (575) 532-1091.
Rudy began in the round pen with Rebel. Rebel is a rescue horse that had been starved among other abuses which has left him with some issues. He can be pushy and disrespectful. Below is a slideshow of Rudy working with Rebel to show him and his owners that there is something that can be done to correct these types of behavior in a non-threatening or painful way.

Since this clinic Rudy Lara earned 12 endorsements from Dennis Reis while riding with Dennis at the No Dust Tour Stop in Albuquerque, NM Feb 28 - 1 Mar 2009.
Dennis said that acheivement has only happened one time before. Most people need much more time to earn that many endorsements. Congratulations to Rudy on this great accomplishment.
