Certifiable.
He needs to listen more carefully to his own words. But, tearing down CDJ? Truly whacko.
NP is incorrigible.
The only reason he gets away with his nonsensical bids for attention on DH is because SW considers him click-bait for driving viewers to her monetized and mostly stolen content on YouTube.** Even SW has no respect for NP. His are the most hated videos on DH.
They are a pair those twoâŠtied together in some sort of hate feeding fest: one for money, the other for attention.
** Just a reminder about YouTube. SW constantly points out that DH is not an FB channel, but a YouTube channel. In her opinion, only âoldâ people cannot grasp the difference. As if she is the epitome of youth. She must be over 40 by now, notwithstanding her well filtered and enhanced photos. Further on ancient content, the picture of CDJ riding the grey is from 2015. The horse is Evi Strasserâs Renaissance Thyme. I believe the photo was taken at a masterclass in Caledon, pre-pandemic. Note the Cdn flag on the saddle pad. We all know that SW has a hate on for Canadian riders, jealous little beastie that she is and continues to be. It is not a good look for her, and it too is getting âold.â
The picture is actually from a master class in Central Park, where CDJ rode Renaissance Tyme rather than flying Valegro overseas.
Like LK, SW is definitely middle-aged, yet stuck in teen drama.
The sad thing about the NP / SW ârelationshipâ is that he doesnât even realize sheâs just using him. His trainwreck videos generate clicks, which translates to money in her pocket. He actually thinks sheâs a support of his, which adds another level to the delusions.
The only solution for people like SW, who are a blight on the sport, is to not click on any DH videos.
Ah, Nick, a jealous hateful little man. Iâd honestly feel bad for him if he wasnât so nasty.
Iâm sure that CDJ will only ride push button horses
Oh, that slap at DoverâŠ
Didnât RD tell NP to never utter his name?
Also can I just point out the hilarity of characterizing training a horse from the age of 4 up to GP, going to the Olympics and winning a medal when he had only competed at GP a handful of times, then selling the horse for a bijillion dollars and keeping the horseâs new owner as a client as âgiving upâ on the horse
The horses Nick casually refers to as âpush-buttonâ would have his sack-of-potatoes butt on the ground inside of five minutes. Heâd either get bounced off within the first 5-6 strides of a working trot or the horse himself would say âenoughâ and dispose of Crotch Hands.
These horses also appear to be push button because of the good riding and training done by CDJ. There are also so many reasons as to why horses are bought, sold, or given to another rider to ride.
Nick is just a snowflake in an armchair, so
Ok. DressageHub got me with that picture. I wanted to see why NP thought this looked like a difficult ride.
He spooked twice during the entire testâŠand was out of sorts for a single stride for each spook.
Hell, Iâd take that kind of difficult ride.
I thought it was a lovely test. And so apparently did the judges.
Oh, but his âexperienceâ tells him otherwise.
Nick, you might want to tuck in your shirttail of bitterness. Itâs showing.
Itâs got a smear of something even worse-smelling than bitterness, wormwood and gall on it too.
It definitely would if he rode an actual GP horse.
Maybe his lawnmower bucks too.
IIRC, the instance in which he was put up on a schoolmaster by a barn onwer he pestered for a job ended with Nicky stuck in a corner with the horse refusing to move.
And that was apparently a saintly, âpushbuttonâ horse. Imagine what would happen on a hot firecracker like Pumpkin?
ETA: I am mistaken. I see below it was a 6yo.
This was the post from Golden Gait Farm in 2014. It was not a schoolmaster he was trying to ride;
"I apologize in advance for bringing up an âold Threadâ however, it was brought to my attention after the original thread was closed and I feel my encounter with Mr. Peronace could save unsuspecting people from being taken advantage of.
I want to take this opportunity to announce that I am NOT affiliated with Nick Peronace Dressage in any way, shape or form! Mr. Peronace applied to my farm for a âtrainersâ position back in November 2013. He was barely qualified to talk about riding and training in person, yet perform a service. I did put him on a young horse (6) who tested him, and he failed. He actually could not get the horse to walk around the indoor and I had to ârescueâ him in the corner. This was after he asked myself and a trainer to put his spurs on for him! After going to get him and leading him back to the end of the ring, he asked me to get on the horse, and I granted his request. I showed him how to make the mare walk, trot and canter. He declined getting back on her and opted to put her on a lunge-line. I politely told him the interview was over, thanked him for his time and said good bye. The very next day he sent me a proposal to work at my farm for $500/week and train as many horses as I could give him, and he would âtrainâ my horse for free. When I declined his offer, he became irate to the point I had to hang up the phone because of his vulgar comments. Never in all my experience in this business have I been spoken to in that manner by a so-called âprofessional.â I was raised where men did not speak to women in that manner. He even went so far as to call back and leave a very unprofessional message on my voice mail. If anyone has any doubt of my encounter, there were 2 VERY reputable trainers working here on that day who experienced Mr. Peronaceâs âperformanceâ I also saved the voice mail because it is so hard to believe this even occurred.
He has since posted photos of my farm on his Facebook page and attempted to use my farm for personal gain. When I requested he remove the photos as they were taken and used by him without my permission, he blocked me from his page. I have now consulted with an attorney. Please do your homework as he is persistently âcold callingâ farms to host clinics. He is now offering them for âFreeâ Please beware. I have also forwarded correspondence to Dressage at Devon CEO and President and they are now aware, as well as other very big named trainers whoâs names he has been throwing around.
I feel the horse community is so small, and tightly woven that we all have to watch each others backs in order to keep scammers such as this out."
Remember his one job interview where he couldnât even steer and the trainer had to come and rescue him from the corner the horse was stuck in? He claimed that one wasnât trained either.
Should we all pitch in (anonymously, of course) and buy him a bathrobe?
That is posted right above your comment.
