E3: VetCareTraining Clinic, Cooperative Care & beyond (with Daina Matskina)
The Cooperative Equine PodcastShow Notes
I had a great conversation with Daina Matskina the other day - she´s a horse trainer from Latvia, and she´s organizing a VetCareTraining clinic in Latvia (in June 2026). Find out more about the clinic: https://vetcaretraining.teachable.com/p/clinics We were chatting about Equine Cooperative Care, who it is for, who will benefit from it, and what you can expect from the clinic. In our conversation, we´ve actually made a few good points worth sharing. So, I decided to turn it into a podcast episode. Enjoy listening!

As an equine vet and cooperative care trainer, I´m a huge advocate of modern, ethical horse training & handling techniques. The other day, someone commented on my social media post, saying: "Forceful training techniques are so yesterday." And that´s exactly what they are. Now that we know better, it´s time for us to do better. Enjoy listening.

In this episode, I am interviewing another one of the Cooperative Care Kick-Start graduates, Mahnoor Raja. In her review of this program, Mahnoor wrote that it helped her overcome her fear of cooperative care training. In this episode, we talk about what she was worried about in the beginning and how Cooperative Care Kick-Start helped her. We also dive into consent-based care itself, talking about different start buttons she uses to communicate with her horses now. Enjoy listening!
