I am writing to you to say thank you for
all the work that you did with Lenny the Wonder Horse.
As you will recall previous to your treatment he was not
a happy camper in fact he had been described as being
nasty. We knew that this was not his fault and this was
not who he truly was. There were times when he was lovely
but as a result of mistreatment from previous owners he
certainly had a lot of hang ups. I was unable to go into
the stable with him without him putting his ears back
and lunging at me – let alone trying to change his
rugs in there. He was unreliable at shows and quite frankly
he was petrified. I recall one show where I could feel
his heart beating through the saddle he was that frightened.
He would buck and sometimes rear whenever he got a fright
at shows. This was so bad that my instructor Pippa Glynn
rode him for the last show season. Sometimes this behaviour
started even before we got him to a show. When we first
got him he would strike out when leading him into the
float and was a nervous horse to float. He was difficult
to catch and did not want any attention from me or most
other humans. He did not like to be touched and always
appeared to be on the defensive with us.
When I read your ad in Horsedeals I knew straight away
that your treatment was something that we should try (at
this stage anything was worth a try!!). I knew that emotionally
he was highly strung and I could do things to change his
environment but I knew that there was not much I could
to help him with this thinking, fears and being brave.
I had him on a Manners powder (daily) and this helped
in that he did settle enough to be able to handle him
safely especially in the stable.
We noticed a change with him following his first treatment
with you. He appeared to be calmer and was starting to
let down his emotional barriers especially when being
touched. After the second and third treatment it was like
we had a different horse living with us. He was becoming
more cuddly and most importantly he seemed to be happier
within himself. By the time he had completed his last
treatment he has become a horse that enjoys human contact
and one that is easy to manage in the stable (no more
lunging at us or kicking at us when we are doing his rugs).
He is no longer on Manners and is a delight to have around
the stable. I never would have though that he would be
a horse that enjoys human contact. He now freely comes
up to us in the paddock for a pat and a cuddle. I look
forward to the show season next year when I can get him
out and see how much he has improved.
We thankyou sincerely for all your advice, strategies
and the intuitive work that you did with Lenny (and with
us). Most of all we thank you for helping Lenny –
he is now a horse that who is truly happy in his own skin.
I now look forward to having Lenny out next show season.

After my moment of stress yesterday I went home and as is usual practice these days we redressed Lenny’s leg. When we took the bandage off we were truly amazed at the change in the wound. For the first time it was not weepy, it did not bleed and it actually looked like it was starting to heal!!!!
YOU ARE AMAZING
Your work is amazing - the difference between Tuesday and Wednesday is mind blowing – and this is all following your work – because it actually looked worse after the struggle we had with him on Tuesday. You are right that I have to trust Lenny and let him work out what he needs! After your intervention he has certainly worked out how to heal himself very quickly. It looked so clean and healthy and not gorey at all (as it looked even with all the interventions and treatments).
I went inside and I was going to ring you to let you know but it was 10pm your time and I was not sure if it was too late to call you. You are amazing – thanks for helping Lenny.
