Thank you for your reply! Magic was truly magical, but he also got over an hour of bodywork the day before, as well as many times in the past. But he was a star!

Well spoken and presented!! Best 11.30 minutes for human understanding of equine!! Must watch for horse owners!! Thank you!

Really good video -- and spot-on about the importance of feeding horses on the ground. I toss hay in the corners of the stalls and feed out of hard rubber feed tubs (on the ground) in the stalls -- with round bales free choice in the paddocks to make sure they can graze 24/7.

Thank you Dr Finn. 👌

Such a beautiful horse ♥

Thank you for this video. I really appreciated the information. Hope to get your videos too.

Thank you !!! For being a vet and GETTING IT!!!

Wonderful presentation. Excellent information. Thank you!

Very good info! I have to feed hay and never liked that hay becomes a stationary 10/15 hr activity (with rolls) and also never liked just tossing bales on the ground. Jeffers equine sells cheap slow feed hay nets, where I put 2-3 flakes in each, tie them closed and toss about 7-9 in the pasture on the ground for my two horses. They kick, paw, and nose them around so they get a lit more movement and still no sand. Now I can show this to the nay say-ers who think I am crazy!!

This is great, so informative. Thanks very much

Great video, clear and concise.

Awesome info! This info is so crucial. Only so far professionals use this but not low rider teachers pity enough.

Such a beautiful, (Arab? Arab cross?) gorgeous horse. I have a grey flea-bitten Arab QH well we think, she was a recuse, had to have several of her teeth pulled because they were so badly damaged from bit abuse. I never ever ever ride her in a bit, never use sppurs or a whip on her cuz she was abused. They aslo broke her way too young, she was "fully broke" at 2 years old and had full grown adults yanking around on her. spuring and whipping her, causing her so much pain. I got her when I was 9 and she was 6. Iv had her for 6 years now and she is the best horse I have ever had. I wouldnt ever sell her. One day I'm going to become a veterinarian, and I'm going to help all sorts of animals be much healthyer. I'm also gping to learn acupuncter and animal chiropractics so I can use them as well when working with animals

i love your dictation!

This was really easy to understand , i have range horses they live off the land like mustangs two horses , two miniature ponies and they only trust me to get on them or be around them im herd leader i guess u could say , they follow me everywhere , i can let them out of the fence and get on their backs no saddle , no blanket , no halter or anything and they just sit and listen to my voice but they have their moments when they arent moving their necks right this helps and it was very interesting

This is a wonderful at my age I'm understanding more. It is better than books.

Very interesting! Well, my hay bag is going on the floor of my stall next show! :)

Wow thank you !

❤❤❤❤❤ good for vets

I love horses!

Wish the DVD were out! Couldn't find it on your website.

This was great but I clicked on it hoping to have scapular movement addressed. Some "experts" say the scapula moves several inches toward the back of the horse when the front leg is raised. Others say it barely moves. Hoping to have that resolved.

awesome thing

What is used to paint the horse? does it wash of easily? Thanks!

How can you watch the whole video?

Come to Brazil to teach us🌞💫🌟

Why is the cervical spine painted 30 cm below the thoracic part?

Fascinating. And I don't even own a horse!

Important video - great information. I have taken on an 18 yr old Arabian who's back has dropped over the last couple of years. To help him build those ligaments and muscles, besides feeding on the ground, what can I do while hand walking him in the pasture? I have seen a trainer hook elastic bungie cords to the halter and down to the metal loop on the middle of the cinch before. Do you think that would help?

Dr. Finn, My 5yo gelding was diagnosed with kissing spine this summer. I am afraid I am looking at another big dog in my backyard, he is my only horse, and I already have 2 big dogs. Do you have any recommendations? T10-!5 involved with 11,12 and 13 actually touching and show some remodeling. Have done 2 chiro treatments and 2 shockwave therapies.

Where did you get the body paint? I'v been trying to find non-toxic body paint that is safe for my horses. I have a grey flea bitten Arab X QH mare and I'm going to an endurance ride near hallowween and theres a costume party for horse and rider and I want to paint her like a native american pony but I cant find any horse safe body paint for a good price

What did you use to paint the horse? (Chalk, grease pens or ?) Cool video

so....is the INABILITY to yawn an indication of TMJ pain or if my horse is yawning a LOT does the frequent yawning indicate pain?

In Latin the word for horse is Equus.

Won't they get more parasites if they are eating off the ground? Would a ground mat that is sanitized or something be used rather than the ground itself?

@CanineRehab

2 жыл бұрын

Horses naturally eat grass in pasture off of the ground and get parasites in their daily life. That is why most horses are receiving regular periodic deworming for parasites. If your horses are eating in a stall parasites would not have developed on a stall floor. There is a life cycle that involves grass. Stall mats are good for keeping hay out of the mud so it doesn't get wasted.

@CanineRehab

Thank you for question, William! It's a great one. They get parasites from eggs that have larvated, so not really out of mud or dirt. The concern would be more about sand, so there should be a mat on the ground when you're feeding hay on the ground.

How credible, or not credible, is the 'seesaw theory' that tying your horse's head down will automatically make their back less hollow? Is the 'giraffe frame' actually more harmful to the horse than the 'snake frame' (coiled up with a short neck and lowered back)?

@CanineRehab

Жыл бұрын

Maggie, thank you so much for reaching out! I would urge you to never tie a horse's head down. When a horse's head is tied, you are not controlling which muscles of his body are being used to assume that position. The head carriage truly comes from them lifting their thorax through a free, unrestricted topline. At time, the use of a loose bungie can help a horse learn that there is a desirable frame which is more comfortable. Obviously this is a complex issue, but, the bottom line is: restriction is never positive in a long-term. I would refer you to Karen: dressagenaturally.net/ The principles here are applicable regardless of discipline.

Many approaches using mechanical aids are short cuts that riders and trainers find necessary because it can be challenging for time and patience to be valued. I really commend you for your search of what is best for the horse.

Bruh I came here to learn about horses not to see people preach about god in the comments

because if you don't abuse the bit then its not negitive (most of your cues should come from you legs) and riding a horse isn't bad for them as long as its done with the horse in mind aka don't go jumping off a roof onto its back just cause you saw it in a western movie or don't use rollkur cause it cuts off precious oxygen to the brain.

I respect your right to believe as you choose, your belief means that God is irresponsible & not very nice. As a parent I would never leave my child to put his/her hand on a hot stove to learn the hard way. I don't claim to be infallible like God. I think that God is so loving that He gave us the freedom to choose to exist by either His unselfish principles or our selfish principles. Do we do unto others as we WANT done to us, or do we serve it back to them like they already did to us.

evolved, gift from god but developed by mother nature? one or the other here come on

Evolutionist need faith. And arbitrary numbers that are huge (like 55 million) in order to believe the animal changed).

Jesus wouldn't have wanted you to turn your eye to an educator, despite belief. Learn what you can from this professional, but keep in mind your own faith.

actually my belief means that god trusts us to make decisions instead of telling us exactly what to do. i mean yeah my dad told me many times not to touch the hot plate but i didn't listen to him and ended up waiting till he left the room, i tried to climb onto the cabinet and stuck my hand right on the hot plate, learned pretty quick why he told me not to touch it.

I agree with you on that, i think god created the world then left us to our own devices so that we could evolve the way we needed to (kinda like letting a little kid find out the hard way that you don't put your hand on a hot surface)

Very nicely done. Horses didn't evolve, though, God (not "mother nature") made them on Day six of creation week. We use feed bags that we hang low on the ground, and we take them out for walks or they eat in the pasture. Nicely done! Magic is a beautiful horse. An arabian?

Those little guys from way back then adapted to their environment over a looong period of time which lead to what we know of horses today! It's pretty interesting to read about.

he gave us free will & even once we know this is wrong or this is right we still sometimes choose to do what we want regardless.but you can look at horses for instance & see the evolution, if god created us perfect no need to evolve then why did the horse change its form over millions of years to what they are today, of course running into humans changed their natural course a bit.honestly there is not evidence to my 'idea' as you call it cause its how i feel,what i believe no fact just feeling.

Evolution is not true

Horses didn’t evolve. They were engineered by God. But overall she does a great job giving visuals on the skeletal and muscular areas that have the most problems. Grazing walks are a great idea if you live somewhere that facilitates that. Great point on developing a muscle that shouldn’t be when you feed in a feeder.
