Horse Ballet

Robin Hessel performs freestyle dressage on a horse named Ambition 7 during a presentation at Valley View Equestrian Center Saturday afternoon. Dressage is like a ballet for horses as their steps are matched to music in an arena setting. Hessel and her friend Chris Cashel performed for a group of people in order to raise money for the Companion Animal Assistance Program. CAAP helps those in need pay for pet spaying, neutering, and shots for household pets in Payne County.
