You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 75.101.128.0/17 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:39, 2 October 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Working cow horse''' or '''reined cow horse''' is a type of [[Western riding]] competition in which horse and rider are tested for ability to work cattle. It is organised by the National Reined Cow Horse Association in North America, and by the European Reined Cow Horse Association in Europe. Horses are judged on accuracy, timing, and responsiveness.

[[File:Working cow horse Scottsdale 2017 20.jpg|thumb|Arabian horse competing]]
Reined cow horse events which are "open" to all breeds and held by the [[National Reined Cow Horse Association]] (NRCHA).<ref name=NRCHARules192/>  Working cow horse events are also held at breed specific shows, such as at an [[American Quarter Horse Association]]<ref name=AQHAClasses>[http://www.aqha.com/showing/guidetoshowing/classes.html AQHA Show Classes] accessed on October 31, 2007</ref> or [[Arabian Horse Association]] show,<ref name=Adren>Andrew "Looking for an Adrenalin Rush?" ''Modern Arabian Horse'' Oct/Nov 2007 p. 128-135</ref>  The general rules between various organizations are usually similar to the NRCHA in that the horse is required to perform two or three different sorts of work in one or two sessions. One session consists of [[reining]] work, where a reining pattern is performed.<ref name=NRCHARules192>[http://www.nrcha.com/rulebookDisplay.aspx?rcid=22&rsid=94 National Reined Cow Horse Association Rules 19.2 Judging Reined Work] accessed on October 31, 2007</ref> This is often referred to as the "dry work."<ref name=Strickland>Strickland ''Competing in Western Shows & Events'' p. 71-73</ref> The other is the cow work, where a single cow is released into the arena and the horse is asked to first hold the cow at one end of the arena (known as "boxing") then run the horse along the rail of the arena, turning it back without the aid of the fence (known as "fencing"). Lastly, the horse maneuvers the cow into the center of the arena and cause the cow to circle in a tight circle in each direction (known as "circling"). All this must be accomplished before the cow is exhausted.<!--why?  Isn't there simply a time limit?--> In three event competition, a "Herd Work" session is also included. The herd work is similar to [[cutting (sport)|cutting]] where a single cow is "cut" from a herd of cattle and prevented from returning to the herd by the intervention of the horse and rider.  Herd work is most often included in three-year-old futurity and four- and five-year-old derby classes. Herd work is also included in a "Bridle Spectacular" class.<ref name=Strickland/><ref name=NRCHArules193>[http://www.nrcha.com/rulebookDisplay.aspx?rcid=22&rsid=95 National Reined Cow Horse Association Rules 19.3 Judging Cow Work] accessed on October 31, 2007</ref> (The Arabian Horse Association omits the reining work in its breed shows.<ref name=Adren/>) The horse is judged on the ability to control the cow, as well as speed, balance, responsiveness to the rider.<ref name=Strickland/>
