Chris, I agree 100% with you about the terminology. Words such as bomb proofing and desensitizing are used by equine clinicians to promote their clinics, which can be confusing and/or sometimes misleading to the average rider.

Interesting discussion. However I wouldn't call it desensitized- as that usually means doesn't react at all. Instead I think a better terminology would be to say they are experienced or trained to accept varying situations. Mine aren't desensitized-  they DO react to different stimuli- but in an acceptable manner as reinforced by me during their training. :-)

Chris
