Animals definitely understand at least the intention by talking to them. Some words might also be familiar, so even some of the content might be understandable to them. We all know that animals can be taught to understand certain words, it only follows logically that they may understand at least some of the interaction with them. And they are even better at reading the emotion of what you say better than humans can. And lastly, communicating with them makes animals feel more connected, not as awkward. They can tell you talk to them, talking is connecting no matter how you look at it. It also kind of keeps their mind busy wondering what is being said, instead of worrying about what is being done. And if you sound calm, assuring, then everything will go way much smoother.
@@misanthrophex I don't know about horses, but I have had many dogs & cats all my life. I always have talked to them. A friend asked me why I talked to them because they couldn't understand the words. I said it's true they don't understand all the words I say. But, they low that I am talking to them and paying attention to them. And, most importantly, they know by the tone of my voice that I care for them, and they can trust me not to hurt them.
Imagine not being able to rub something that hurts because you don't have hands, and then along comes a lemur with great communication skills and a startling understanding of human anatomy who knows just where to touch.
@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen it also only works because you connect with them and talk to them. i did that unconcios with the dogs of my girlfriends. they all said the dogs never listen to me but they know you just for a day and listen. later in life i understood why its that way. =) .. it is nice to see their are other people who cando that
40 years ago I was in training for Accupressure. The class was invited to a stable in Tucson and given the privilege to try our new skills on the horses. I may have been the only student there to have owned and worked horse. I was thrilled to see how they responded to the relief we were able to accomplish with simple pressure on points. It warms my heart to see the relief from pain and imbalance you give the horse. God bless you and your love for them.

That horse immediately bonded with you, you stepped forward they stepped with you, you said "stay there for me" and they nodded, lets you hold their head up, doesnt show signs of aggression or even defensiveness, keeps nuzzling you and leaning in giving you their legs , they absolutely love what you're doing

Awww I’m so sorry abrighterday! I‘m sorry but so glad at the same time my videos can help you to have faith again, there are good people in this world too.thank you for always being here so faithful with your support. 🙏🏻❤️ Dr. Doug
Luna was so cute! She felt so much better she asked to have it done again! Before you took her hoof the second time, she put her ears back and dropped her hoof. I swear I could hear her say "Well fine then!" What a sweetheart and a smart girl too!
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too forever😊
When you were done with the legs she was like "Hey, that felt good! Do it again!" Stretching could probably help her sore body a lot as she seems to really relax and want to stretch more. Such a sweet horse, thank you for helping animals feel better!❤
We really don’t deserve animals sometimes, heartbreaking to be treated so badly but having someone who can show them there are good guys too. Lovely reactions from the horse, and you 🫶🏻🤍🏴🐎

@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen doc you've been doing this a long time I got a lot of videos to catch up on. I watch to do nugget. And the miniature horse and the senior dog that was a mixed breed just got finished watching that oh my goodness. My old service dog Samson live to be 16 years old he was a Golden Lab. You are totally amazing sir 🥰🐕🦺🤗

I love you Dr. Doug. I’m 75 now and horseless…and I’m the one with arthritis…but I’ve had many horses throughout my life. I love your dedication, patience and love of horses. 💗
@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen Yeap, loaded with it but I earned it over the years putting my joints into overtime doing all my own barn work...and,...my manure pile was the length of probably 10 people laid out, and UPhill! And at times I unloaded 90lb+ bales of hay off my truck.
Had an acupuncturist save a dogs life. Jaw muscle vanishing. Traditional vet gave him 50/50 to live. The acupuncturist said 6 treatments , he’d be good. Stopped at 4. Dr. Basks went on to be head of veterinary medicine in Hawaii. Had the brig 17 years, 12 of those after Basko saved him. Frodo RIP
Luna was such a sweetie!❤. I saw the shorts of this patient adjustment. I'm happy to see the full video. She sure was patient and processing what you were doing for her Dr Doug!❤🐎
Wow, what a difference you made in Luna’s life! So glad you were there to help! People like you are so appreciated and so respected thank you for helping!❤
Makes me feel relief just watching...and then seeing these large kiddos settle and exude real peace. God bless you and the work of your hands, what a difference you're making.
Luna you are the sweetest old lady and I'm so glad you landed in a kind and loving place. I have to say that even though your owners dumped you (at a horse rescue!) I think they loved you because you are so trusting and good around people.

Luna is a very sweet girl and I’m so happy you were able to give her some relief. She seemed to really appreciate the adjustments you gave her. Have a wonderful life on the farm Luna with people that care about you. Be healthy and happy. ❤❤❤❤❤
Luna is such an amazing being. She is so calm, trusting, and curious (turning her head to look with that "what's this all about?" question on her face). Mmmmm. Lovely to see her getting healing and love.
Luna is very intelligent and sensitive. She knew immediately what you were doing, when you held her head up; she felt your energy and aligned with it.. Bless, she is a good horse! Her lips are expressive and super cute! Thanks for helping her Doc!

I love that he talks to and asks the animals for permission
Thank you, it‘s for me very important, I don’t like enter the personal space of animal without exchanging few words of respect.

Absolutely! she is so smart!

Luna was a great patient! She wanted more and more work done to her. Haha! Love how she kept giving you her leg to stretch. Have a good week.
She was so funny! I loved working with her!
My pony Taffy lived to the ripe old age 54. She was queen of the barns!!!

Seeing someone dedicate so much of his life to helping living beings that cannot thank him is fantastic to watch. Good man.
Love Dr. Doug !!!!!
I actually see the horse complying with him it is amazing to watch
Being diagnosed with CPTSD after severe bullying and harassment, this really helps with not losing faith in humanity. Thankyou Dr Doug and Luna
Horses are great therapy!

Dr. Doug is another sweetheart who helps those who can't speak for themselves. Wishing Luna many happy years in a lovely place.
Dr. Doug you are a beautiful soul. A healer in tune with nature and respectful of animals. We need more men like you in this world.
This is all about love! Luna understood that. Take care of yourself Dr Doug, everyone appreciates you. 💚
I wish that there were more chiropractors for animals. What you do is take care of animals that can't tell you where they hurt . God bless you!
Luna is so patient, especially for a horse that was abused and abandoned. Animals seem to be able to trust again. They are amazing. I love the way. He talks to her and she seems to understand.
I can tell the horses you work with trust you. Never ceases to amaze me the intelligence of the animal kingdom.
What a sweet, gentle, and trusting girl!!!
I cant praise chiropracty enough....it keeps me in motion without it i believe i would have been in a wheelchair over 40+ years! To Luna loads of hugs & much love, to Doug & staff many thank you's.
Look at her letting you work on her. She knows, she knows you’re helping her. That’s great.
Not only are you the King of Animal Chiropractics but you are a Horse Whisperer too Dr D. You truly are a wonderful healer! Love you❤️
Thank you Carole for your encouragement!
As somebody who has been using chiropractic for over 40 years, a good adjustment sometimes is exactly what you need
