Domador
The domador is the only job that has been maintained trough time. The rude
image of the "gaucho" in equal fight with the colt is still a symbol
in our country. Before beginning the training the "gaucho" must
tie the colt to the "palenque"(tethering-post), brush it, wash it
and caress it. Then he must make the colt feel the weight of the saddle and
finally ride it. Prances, wild runs, an occasional tumble are part of the
taming. Skillfully, bravely without harming it, the "domador" turns
the wildest colt into his best friend: the horse.
