Hooray for the sisters, hooray for Vikki, beautifully done, inspiring, a great relief that more of the truth is moving outward. Well done, so grateful ❤❤❤
As a very experienced TellingtonTTouch practitioner, I am thrilled to see someone acknowledge that pain is the root of most of behavior issues in horses, and all animals. Thank you Vicki Wilson!
I'd imagined older horses picking up injuries and muscle probs and needing adjustment, but what an eye opener seeing a young horse already with so much pain in it's body. Wonderful seeing the possibility these horses are well on the way to a more comfortable life with their owners. Just amazing to see what can be done. And to see visible results starting so fast! Its too sad the amount of horse that get thrown away; No good. And so inspiring to see trainers and professionals able to figure the solutions. I imagine the precious lives that are saved by such interventions. A horse can reach his pet potential, rather than being passed on and on, possibly putting riders/owners in danger, before the decision is made to slaughter. What a fantastic skill being able to read a horse like that and have the abiltiy to fix him too!
Thank you so much , Vicki ! I'm glad to see far more awareness of our horse's pain , especially spinal displacements /muscle spasms. We should be teaching our horses bilateral neck flexions, and lowering their heads for head/neck/spinal stretches before, during and after workouts. I read today an owner's horse is doing these exercises on it's own , unprompted, which is ideal ... It must feel good ! I wish every owner could take an equine acupressure course, (if they can't get a veterinary chiropractic or acupuncture degree!) But we can all know our horse's bodies and habits. Are there changes ? We can take temperatures and run our hands over spines, legs and major muscle groups, to detect heat or pain . We can check for dental problems and listen to their respirations and heart beats … and call our Vets.
Vicky got that gift with a horse She just know how to look for it and treat it. The three sister are like this but Vicky the one who know what to do Mate its a gift
So interesting. I wish there was a good equine chiropractor in this area. The changes in the two horses was amazing. Vickey is one talented horse person!
Great video. I have two horses with SI joint problems and if I had paid more attention earlier to exactly what Vicki is talking about, we could probably have caught these problems a lot earlier as well. I believe in adjustments for humans from a chiropractor, so why should we not believe the same thing is good for our horses? Makes sense.
Vicky Wilson and her two Sisters got horses from the wilds Vicky the one that got everything right Kelly was a bit unlucky her wild horse had bad teeth. Iv watch the Video on Netflix 91 day to train a wild horse and the three sister did it. Am sure that Kelly Vicky Sister standing with the white horse. Vicky as no fear Kelly as i don.t blame her one bit. But Kelly the fun one She always up to something. Witch one of the Wilson Sisters give get the builder dog treats she put in the river for it, great laugh These three Sister are great with horses wild or not. Thank you for this Video Vicky
WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING?! into the microphone next to these poor horses ears, also notice she has a hat on and those stupid "professional" boots but no one else does?
just think when yr lying on the ground concussed with a brain injury and can't remember what the date is or what u were doing. Just remember that helmets save lives. and talking from experince it has saved my life more than once. so just remember we don't hang on to a horn when things get tough. also do u think we agree with what u do because more than half of the time we don't agree with your way of doing things either.
Pathetic comments Speakers are surround sound up in the stands Do you know what safety helmets are...bull riders use them Your comment about boots? Unbelievable
because she is an english rider.... the amount of flambouyance the rest of the competitors had comparatively far outweighed a bog standard helmet and english boots
Folks - this is the biggest piece of bo-yunk I've seen in horse handling. She is not regarding the horse OR his feelings. It's not about the equipment. It is entirely about how the horse is being made to feel emotionally comfortable. These instances show me that she does not have any consideration for the horse. I stopped at 9:08 and refused to watch any more. This was terribly painful for me and for the horse.
How can you make that judgement if you didnt watch all of it? You werent even curious to see the remarkable change in the horse after she had done the bodywork?
Max Artman you might want to go back and watch the entire video because you missed how much she helped these two horses in a short time. The adjustments she did were impressive
I thought she was considering the emotional state of these horses very well as well as their physical state. I'm not Abigail fan of a lot of stuff like this, but I thought she was very good and the results were impressive. You should perhaps give yourself a chance to learn and watched the entire video. I'm an old school trainer but I learned from and enjoyed the video. The more one knows about horses makes one realize how much one does NOT know about them. Vicki made a lot of sense.
