The belly scratches was so touching. I wanted to cry. Probably the only time he was treated as a pet and not a workhorse. God bless him.

I love that you proceed in "horse time". Letting Finn set the pace of his emotional recovery is key. I'm in dog rescue and behaviour/training, and it gets me so frustrated when so many people expect a dog to function as we do, ie. "Hurry up hurry up Do what I say and want now" Horses, dogs, cats, cows, and probably all animals, really, simply do not count time the way we do. Nor do they "feel" it as we do. To heal any kind of past emotional trauma, less is definitely more. With dogs and cats, I just sit on the floor and read (or whatever quiet thing), and eventually they come... can take weeks :) With horses, sitting quietly as you do, or using an "apply/relax gentle pressure" method as Cory did with Finn, I think those are the only paths that can create a lasting relationship of trust. Sadly, many people still feel the need to dominate... I prefer building bonds based on trust and respect, not fear. Good show Julie :)

@@VirgoKat Gee thanks but no, not that kind of innate gift :) Just maybe, the willingness to learn new ways when the old ways are wrong :) For me, the path started with 3 VERY readable and fascinating books, and then applying them to my rescues and fosters. Three pioneers whose words changed the life of many people and animals in trouble. 1. Monty Robert's first book about horses. WOW, a man who didn't want to "break" horses through domination, but rather, understood how a prey animal thinks and feels (like the flight instinct), and works with those instincts to create trust. It caused a revolution in my mind. Roberts has written other books, and there are videos, and other authors I do not know yet :) So many cool places to go and explore if one wants to ... rescue & rehab, bitless riding, Liberty training...Oh my! 2. "The Culture Clash", by Jean Donaldson and 3. "The Other End of the Leash", by Patricia McConnell With Ian Dunbar, these authors were in there right at the start of a new understanding of how different we are from dogs. We are primates, they are canines...so many differences in how we see the world asnd how we communicate. Both books are easy to read for ordinary people... entertaining too... and easy stuff you can try right away with your own doggies. The website dogwise(dot)com has a vast inventory of dog-friendly books, videos etc, and even a few about horses...Really great books by Ian Dunbar on planning for, getting, and raising a puppy...Also the official reading list for getting APDT ceritfication. Anyone know a really great horse-friendly books website?

I do not have the words to thank you for this particular video. Bringing your rescue and rehabilitation work in these videos you educate and inform. Many people would assume that you pick up a rescue horse and turn the horse out and it's one big happy herd. This video shows us the variety of character and personality of the horses and how they build relationships. Finn it seems had years of isolation being worked before dumped for slaughter. Again, I do not have words for the work with Finn, nearly a Lazarus effect.

What a beautiful video ❤ I rescued a gelding years ago & for weeks when it was time for more hay he would stay at the feeder till the next time. The only time he would leave was to get a drink then right back to the hay. The day I saw him actually walk away from the hay with hay still in the feeder I cried like a baby cuz at that point I knew he knew there would always be fresh hay for him & he didn't have to worry ❤ His front teeth were so worn we thought he was very old, but the vet said more then likely he was trying to eat anything, which most likely was small bits of grass growing in a dry lot 😢 Bless the old man he lived to be aprox 32. Bless you for living these amazing creatures ❤️

I see the goat next to Finn. I know the old racetrack trick of having a goat near by or in with a racehorse to calm him/her down. Finn is a proud horse & I’m so very glad you’re loving on him ! ❤

Finn impresses me as an unusually sensitive Belgian. I hope Charlie comes to accept and like him. The "girls" are doing well at it. Finn sure is a handsome guy, isn't he?!! Looks like he's put on some healthy weight! Wahoo! 🤠🐴❣

Charlie: Let me at him. Finn: Do not give Charlie eye contact! Beautiful horses.

Oh my gosh! When you first scratched his belly I almost cried! ❤ I don’t know if it was because I was so happy to see it or so sad to think of how hurt he must have been to be so untrusting! 😢. I am glad he seems to be settling in. Love your work!❤

Such a glorious and intelligent boy,he’s been hurt but now he can be loved,bless you 🙏💙💗

The depths of your patience and Knowledge (example:Finn) knows no end and is probably the finest in the world. Really.

Fynn made me cry, you could tell that he had never experienced a moment of love, kindness or affection in his life and was so afraid of more of the abuse he undoubtedly endured. And I picked up on him missing someone he was really bonded with from his old life, another horse and they took care of each other during the horrible years with mean humans. But when he started trusting you guys killed me. He finally knows what it's like to feel safe and loved. Him galloping back to you like a big puppy. Bless Anna!!! And Charlie is such a funny super grump!! Bless Fynn, he really melted my heart. Sometimes the most aloof or aggressive ones are the ones with the most pain inn their hearts.

You don’t have to wait until the horse is totally trained to introduce him to us. Waiting with you for that trust day would keep people tuning in. That being said, I loved this vid & this boy’s finally fitting into the herd story. He really needed the kindness & the love you give.

Amish suck his scars on his face tell it all. So glad he is healthy and loved. ❤

Until now I’d never seen Belgium horses run free in a big area. He looks so majestic, and happy. That’s a nice donkey. When we first turned my Thoroughbred out into the pasture my miniature donkey chased the horse all over it! That was really funny, especially because of the size difference!

Charlie was getting pretty feisty there, I hope he comes around, but glad Finn made several friends. Poor boy has some physical and emotional healing to do, but is well on his way. ❤️

Re your scratching tree. On another channel, about dairy cows, the farmer was donated some car wash brushes. The big ones that roll over your car or along the sides. They were set up in his barn and the cows absolutely loved getting brushed by them. Don’t know how they were activated or if they were just turned on at various times. There was also an arrangement of brushes affixed to a wall for the cows to rub up against, a static diy grooming,device.

I am so happy I ran across your site here!! Wow!! I love love LOVE what you guys are doing! Praying God continues to BLESS you! Thank you for sharing & caring!!🫶🫶🫶
