Reader has rediscovered the joy that is ridng and horses

I must tell you that emails like this one from Jenny, about rediscovering the joy that is riding and horses, just make my day! 

“I just want to thank you and Bobby for your book Bobby’s Diaries. Since I purchased it from you at the (Connected Riding) Clinic in Warragul I have spent time most days with my horse Luke and am writing a diary myself about the insights I am receiving from him.”

Recommendation from a reader

Here’s an excerpt from an email to the discussion group that is based around the life and horse enriching book “Bobby’s Diaries - Straight from the Horse Mouth to You”.

“I have been discussing some issues that my horse and I have with Jenny and have been thrilled to find that “Bobby’s Diaries” seems to be able to answer questions that have haunted me for years; and in the recent past been screaming in my ear. 

I am thrilled to see that Jenny doesn’t use the terms respect and disrespect but instead discusses horse leadership rules. It was like lifting a huge weight from my shoulders placed there for many years by traditional horse people that demanded that I, “Make my horse respect me”. That of course is an impossible task as I believe that respect can only be earned through trust and understanding.

How wonderful to know that if the leadership role is lost it can be regained. There have been times that my horse’s leadership has been invaluable to our safety, this swapping of leadership makes for a lovely partnership.”

Advice to a reader about a biting horse

Here’s an email excerpt from from Sue in Ontario

I have a horse, a thoroughbred that I have had now for almost 3 years.  He came with huge issues that had been shut down with force most likely and he uses biting to communicate with me.  I have learned to appreciate the subtle nuances of a bite.  I bet that sounds strange, whether he is mad at me or the world in general, or if he just wants my attention, there are so many ways that he actually bites.  And by the way you are spot on about fast and accurate. He is a wonderful teacher, like the one you hated in school but learned to appreciate later.    The biting has much improved, I clicker train him so he has even more reasons to bite at times.  You talk about hearing what they have to say, thanks for saying it out loud because Busy, (Business Image) has a lot to say and he comes in load and clear.  Too clear sometimes.  But when we work the best together is when we both have respect for each other and when it is quiet.  He is a very sensitive boy, both spatially and noise wise so I do my best to speak to him clearly and softly, in return I get clearly and softly, what more can we hope for?

Sue is happy to share our emails back and forth and my advice to her, with other readers who may have similar problems.

Dancing and singing about communication with her horse

With her permission, here’s an excerpt from an e-mail this morning from Tiriana in New Zealand.

I’ve been working with Ally (or should I say she’s been working with me?) and reading your book at the same time.  Her - book - rest.  Her - book - rest.  And your book has been like a bible, bringing up exactly what I need to learn, at the right time.  Ally has been extremely patient and kind to me and I’ve been in tears a lot with gratitude, apology and awe of just who she is.  Absolutely fantastic, there’s hope for me yet. 

At times we’ve had so much fun when we’ve got it, that we’re dancing and singing in the middle of the turn around area.  Yep NUTS!  It’s been an amazing journey. 

Please accept my deepest gratitude to Bobby and you, in helping Ally get through to this one silly human.  God save the world!

Animal communication - a book to learn it!

Here’s some lovely excerpts from an e-mail from Valezka in Victoria, Australia.

“Please feel free to put my comments up, I only hope that they encourage more people to have a go at interspecies communication.  My life and that of my kids has changed forever because you have helped me believe in myself and now I have the courage to act on that, for my good and the good of all the beings sharing my life. Good luck spreading the message!”

Valezka, like lots of other people, had already been experiencing “hearing” her horses. Reading in the book “Bobby’s Diaries - Straight From the Horses Mouth to You” how she could do this consistently and use this for deliberate and consistent communication validated her own experiences and deepened them.

Back to Valezka “My horses and I are enjoying working with Bobby’s Diarys, it has made a world of difference to our relationship especially since one of my horses is an ex-racehorse, and we have only been together for 4 weeks.,  He is what inspired me to search for different techniques on line and thanks to that I found your site. Now I feel that’s why he came into my life. We rescued him from slaughter and I was never sure as to why he chose me to rescue him, but now I know that he is a great teacher and thanks to him my daughter and I are learning a lot about these amazing creatures. Many times we are the ones who need the training because we humans don’t understand much at all.

Thanks from the bottom of our hearts for your book, Valezka, Amaya and horses”

You too, can hear your horse in an extraordinary way. Ordinary people can do this. Extraordinary people can do this. Click here to go to the shop to buy this life changing book - “Bobby’s Diaries - Straight From the Horse’s Mouth to You”

Fabulous results with a “problem” horse with new book

Liz has a relatively new thoroughbred horse that she wants to event with.  Here’s some excerpts from her e-mail to me about the results she’s been getting from the book.

“I’ve been inspired by hearing Jo and Cheryl and Debs from up the road, talk about their experiences” in the clinic (New Zealand, October/November) so I bought Bobby’s Diaries a few days ago.
 
I love the book and am halfway through.  I had my softest moment with Harry on Saturday that I’ve ever experienced on the ground, there were a few tears….”

I asked her to expand on that - click here to go to her reply.

A horse book helping horses with problems and people with their confidence!

Hi Jenny

WOW… I need to tell you that the techniques from the book are working for Whisky and I am so rapt. If you were there on the first day after reading our book you would have got the biggest hug from me!! To tell you about my struggle with this horse would take days and to tell you of all the times many `horse` people have told me I am wasting my time with him would again take too long.

My belief that he has been sent for me to encourage my growth is stronger now than ever and my trust in that he will make me a better human continues.

I havent even grasped all your techniques but there are two specifically that we are using easily and I haven’t finished the book yet - I read 3/4 in the first sitting and reread the 3/4 but havent read the last few pages due to PC issues.

I have been bringing him back to comfortable and not pushing him through into anxious and its just so working for him!!

Also picturing it all in my head and explaining what I am going to do before I do it is having him be more trusting and patient with my attempts…..I am so excited I am out
there in the dark hanging out with him (can’t wait for winter to be over). I would really like to ride this horse again one day and hope that these techniques will lead us to this.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for the best horse book ever!

Dear Jenny and Bobby,

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
I am in tears as I write this. Reading Bobby’s Diaries has been, for me, a validation of years of work with my horses. My wonderful friend Sandy, an 18yr old quarter horse, taught me years ago he could read my mind.

About twelve months ago I really began to experiment with what you call imagine it and I’ve had some phenomenal results riding Sandy. Until I began to read Bobby’s Diaries my greatest fear was in people finding out what I was doing.

Once again, thank you both for having the courage to write such a wonderful book.
Warm Regards,  Lyn, Sandy, Jethro and Prince

A horse book that is bringing people to tears of joyfulness

Dear Jenny,
I am still teary now. I sat down at about 8.30 this morning to read and remained in my pyjamas until 3.30 because I could not tear myself away from your book. What a wonderful and productive way to spend a public holiday.

Many parts of your book bought up memories going back over the years, as far as twenty years ago when I had a thoroughbred who would buck when he was confused. I remember many people telling me I was letting him get away with too much and I had to punish him for doing it. Even back then I somehow managed to find the courage to do things my way. When he bucked I would take him back to something he knew well and work on that for a while before going back to what we had been working on. I had not managed to term it so clearly as taking him back to his comfort zone. I only knew what I was doing was working. 

Sometimes I have felt, no many times I have felt like I was stumbling in the dark because I did not have the guidance of someone who had been there before me, and your book has managed to clarify so many things for me.

Never again will I do something simply because it’s the way it’s always been done.

Bobby’s Diaries - Straight from the Horses Mouth to You - the electronic book, click here to buy it now and make up your own mind with my personal guarantee “love this book or get your money back”.  This book contains the secrets of the great horsemen and women (even if they didn’t know it!)
