- Layla, a 14 year old Arabian (breed) was rescued from a kill pen in Texas. Today she get her first chiropractic adjustment from Dr. Doug Willen the Animal Cracker!
HERE IS LAYLA'S 2ND SESSION: • ARABIAN HORSE RESCUED ...
The Arabian or Arab horse is a breed of horse that originated on the Arabian Peninsula. With a distinctive head shape and high tail carriage, the Arabian is one of the most easily recognizable horse breeds in the world. It is also one of the oldest breeds, with archaeological evidence of horses in the Middle East that resemble modern Arabians dating back 4,500 years. Throughout history, Arabian horses have spread around the world by both war and trade, used to improve other breeds by adding speed, refinement, endurance, and strong bone. Today, Arabian bloodlines are found in almost every modern breed of riding horse.
The Arabian developed in a desert climate and was prized by the nomadic Bedouin people, often being brought inside the family tent for shelter and protection from theft. Selective breeding for traits, including an ability to form a cooperative relationship with humans, created a horse breed that is good-natured, quick to learn, and willing to please. The Arabian also developed the high spirit and alertness needed in a horse used for raiding and war. This combination of willingness and sensitivity requires modern Arabian horse owners to handle their horses with competence and respect.
The Arabian is a versatile breed. Arabians dominate the discipline of endurance riding, and compete today in many other fields of equestrian sport. They are one of the top ten most popular horse breeds in the world. They are now found worldwide, including the United States and Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, continental Europe, South America (especially Brazil), and their land of origin, the Middle East.

A kill pen is where people and breeders dump horses that they no longer want.
RISING STARR HORSE RESCUE saves, rehabilitates, retrains and rehomes abandoned, neglected or abused horses and educate about at-risk horses and the importance of protecting them.
By giving America's horses a second chance at life we give the community the chance to experience the love, patience and compassion horses have for humans.
When Kelly Stackpole decided to open her barn to teach noncompetitive horse lessons in 2005, her goal was to bring her passion and love for these incredible animals to others and guide them toward finding a similar love and connection to horses. She did not expect, while looking for horses to fill her barn, to discover that young, sound and healthy horses as well as older horses were being disregarded and often sent off to slaughter. As soon as she became aware that any of the animals beloved to her were not treated in a humane way, she found another mission, and Rising Starr Horse Rescue was born.
Rising Starr relies on a group of talented and specialized veterinarians, chiropractors, staff, and volunteers who work together to approach each horse’s rehabilitation. This team of dedicated individuals ensures that every horse becomes healthy, happy, and confident before moving on to its new home.
Beyond restoring comfort and care to these horses, our purpose at Rising Starr is to inform others about the cruelty of horse slaughter while providing guidance on how to decrease the number of unwanted horses in the United States.
Every member of our program treats all of our horses with the love and respect they deserve - it's their passion. Our volunteers include many teens and children, as we hope that by raising children that are thoughtful and caring about the treatment of horses, we will have the biggest impact on the future of America's horses. Not only does RSHR have a Dedicated board but we are developing a Youth board to continue our work in the future.

She loved the attention and was a good girl, can’t imagine destroying such a beautiful creature
Agreed ugh the thought makes me mad
Oh so you're a vegetarian?
It is obvious to me her disposition is why she was saved. I don’t mean to be cruel, but her confirmation could be better. The owner of that rescue is a very deep thinking individual.
@@qiuwbr091 it’s ‘conformation’
All Arabian horses are good in the mind. It is the people that handle them and train that muck them up in the head. They are very people orientated, smart ,gentle and kind
Well said! Thanks Sandra. I'm so glad you could see this one.
@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen I've had an association with horses since before I can remember. My mother put me on my 1st horse and took a photo at 6 months. A beautiful Clydesdale called Sally. She was a part of my life growing up and I had a job working on an Arabian stud. That gave me my absolute love for such an amazing breed. I don't have horses any more but love to watch as much as I can of people doing good things for animals. Thank you for your kindness and gentleness when you work with the abused and neglected
@@sandrasmith16 HI Sandra, thank you for sharing your early memories. It is so cool that you got to start at such an early age. I am trying to learn more all the time so that I can continue to serve horses and other animals at the highest level I can. I am taking a week off this month to study with two teachers I'm interested in learning from. They spend a week on the hoof/dentistry/ and the reading the horses muscles. www.hoofandbody.com Wish me luck!
Agreed. They are smart and sensitive and need a similar handling. Same with andalusians
I had an Arabian who taught me to ride. I knew nothing. He was a gymkhana barrel racer. We became competitive distance companions. He loved to go and me too, his favorite thing is when I'd lean forward and whisper Run Bongo and he would fly. He had more brains than any horse I met. Dismissing Arabians as hot or crazy is nonsense. Like saying pitties are all mean. . And my Arabian was out of Bandola by Relax. One of Mike Nichols horses. He took care of me for 15 years. I miss him every day.
I'm in love with these horse's. To own a horse would be quite the treasure, such beautiful creatures. You sir have a true gift, to bring comfort to these hard working animals is brilliance. ❤🙏
14 is an Arabian's prime. This mare has a kind eye, I suspect she will settle in just fine.
Layla is a very intelligent horse. She is hesitant and carefully, but not really scared. She got that you were there to help, especially after the first ajustment. You could see her brain firering. You could see her getting a bit restless when you came to the shoulder, so I wasn't too surprised you found a sore spot. Well done doc😘
Hi Bianca! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, too! Hope you are enjoying the weekend! Doc
I never realized there were equine chiropractics. Once I had a pinched nerve in my back and the only relief was the many visits to a chiropractor that finally got me through. Chiropractic for animals, too, is fabulous. There should be more of this type of healing for all. 😀
4:18 now that was a pretty big adjustment that Layla seemed to really like. All her motions shows she trusts you...just like all your human patients do. The final leg adjustment sealed the deal...I do not think that she was afraid of you. Nice video.
Thanks Josette, and thanks for the timestamp, too. I try to show all the sessions, whether the horse is easy, or timid, or if all goes well, or if it is challenging.
Atlas adjustment is what kept me able to play music. This horse is going to be a LOT happier with her atlas adjusted, and all the other adjustments, too!
Hi Felicia, yes, the atlas is a big part of everything in balancing the body. I am a big fan of getting the Atlas aligned.
@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen Me, too! I'm definitely a believer!
What a sweetheart she is.
Hi Rebecca, totally agree. She truly is a sweetheart!
You too 😃
What a gentle horse , love the way she just rested her head on you shoulder when you were helping her. Great video.
Yes, thanks, Elaine, she really seemed to relax by the end!
Layla took a liking to you Doc! The following adjustments were great: atlas 3:16, cervical pole 4:17, as ilium 5:54, lower thoracic/upper lumbar 6:39 and humerus adjustment at 9:20. Great work as usual, Doc!
Thanks for sharing the time stamps Calvin. It so great to have you visit the channel. I love your videos, too, keep them coming. Delightful!
What a well behaved girl. Who would get rid of her? Most people would love a horse like that ❤️
A breeder who can't breed her.
Layla is beautiful, there’s loads of great moments & 6:38 you could even hear a small crack.
Happy Easter everyone, if we don’t meet again before. 🐣 🍫
HI Vaga, Thank you! You too! Happy Easter and thanks for the timestamp too, my friend!
@@kennethsteelhammer Thanks Kenneth and Happy Easter to you and the Doc.
Aww Layla is a beautiful horse. She has that lovely Arabian face. Glad you could help her feel better.
Thank you Jana!
I think she really started to like you when you were examining her just before the first adjustment. Right after, she felt better and was probably thinking that you performed a miracle so that aroused her curiosity about the rest of the treatment. By the time you were done, she was probably flabbergasted that you found all of her sore spots. She was looking at you like you were the 7th wonder of the world.
What a sweet girl! Overall in good shape, but those small movements will make her even happier!
Thanks BC, she seems to be doing well!
The Arbian horse is beautiful. I love her ears going like radar, back and forth. I hope she feels a whole lot better.
What a beautiful horse! l don't understand how these beautiful horses go to the kill pen breaks my heart. I do know l am so grateful people like you saving them and giving them a chance. I do believe in good karma in what people do in kindness with our animals and the environment will come back to you and your family. Love Canada ❤🇨🇦🐎
She is curious and attentive though not concerned at all. My gorgeous Arab mare is very simillar to Layla's stable and calm nature, and the 'wide and low'. They are a bliss to be around, I adore the breed.
Arabians are amazing horses! I have one myself and we have a very strong bond. Arabians can be monotonous and that comes from their ancestors. The Arabian horses that lived in the desert had to trust on their rider and the rider had to trust on their horse. It was not easy to live and travel in the desert.
She is such a beautiful horse!! Thanks for helping her, Doc!
She’s gorgeous! Congrats on 4K subs Doc! I’ve learnt a lot about the animals from your videos and it’s so satisfying seeing them get the help they need ☺️
Thanks so much! I appreciate the kind words, Aimee!
Awwww, she deserved another treat she was so good. What a sweet girl and especially learning that they got her unbroke at 13/14(?) , sweet and pretty little girl.
Wonder if she is expecting due large belly??? But she is a sweetheart...love her already!🐴
She is definitely not pregnant, but she has this unusually shaped, rib cage. She is such a sweetie!
My dad used to adjust champion pulling draft horses, he'd use rubber mallets to save his hands, lol. They'd get so excited when he came to the stalls though, they knew who he was and would be shoving to get thier adjustments, lol. It was fun helping him.
Great videos, Doc, but you need more "end result / post adjustment" in your videos, like show befores and afters so we can see how much improvement there has been. Especially in a horse as beautiful as that one!
My sisters sister in law has had an Arabian breeding horse ranch for decades. Arabians have the largest lung capacity of all horse breeds. Hence a large rib cage. They are beautiful creatures!
She must be so happy to see you doctor. I don’t know what this guy is doing to him but I always feel great when he leaves me. LOL
Layla is gorgeous, thank you for helping her
that first one was a doozy for her...the treat helped make it a good thing so she wasn't scared of you...just careful😊 and walking behind a horse you want to be as close as possible so you can only be pushed away and just hit with any power
That's a good idea Helen, I need to be more careful. Especially when I film a session. When I work in silence, I'm more mindful.
I love all horses. I really like Arabians in particular since they are a classy horse that show well. How anyone could be mean with these creatures is beyond understanding
Hi J, yes, the Arabians have the unique shaped skull and eyes. Classy and delicate in some ways.
Layla is a lovely girl! I don't understand people so ready and willing to kill all the beautiful souls who did NOTHING to deserve it! Endless suffering and destruction due to human heartlessness and irresponsibility! Thank you and bless you for saving innocent creatures!
Wow Layla had some great adjustments Doc! The one near the start where you pulled kind of down around her neck was audible and seemed like it would feel great for her! Nice work!
Yes! Thank you! Hope you are well, Megan! Thanks for being here. Doc
She is so shiny! I love her sweet nature🥕🍎😍
Hi Sharon, me too!!! She is so sweet. I agree 100%!
Great job dr! We need more amazing doctors like you in this world !
I really love to watch you work on the horses.It's very interesting to me. Thank You for all you do for the animals.
Layla is a beautiful horse 🐎, so nice 👍of you helping them. I like the information that you put in description box, very informative and I know you take your time to do that for every video, so thank you 🙏. BTW congrats on 4K, your videos are amazing, have a nice week doc.
Thank you so much 🤗 Emma, yes it feels good to make it to 4k. My House of Chiro channel took twice as long to get to 4k. I'm glad you like the little extra in the description box, too. Doc
Yes, our mares who have had foals, also have big bellies. Great work Doc, and she is a beautiful Mare 🤗
Yes she is! Hi Haarsha, thanks for being here for this one! Yes, she has an extra wide ribcage, but it's even on both sides.
Is that big belly a permanent thing?
@@2degucitas I wonder the same thing. I look at our two mares who have had three foals and they look extra wide than Tulip who has had one foal. I want to see if their form improves if they start training.
@@2degucitas it can be permanent. Mares, like women, vary in how they come back from pregnancy and childbirth.
Such pretty dappling 🥰 she’s a beautiful horse!
What a cute little mare! Glad she was rescued and being cared for. All arabians have "well sprung" ribs. Its in the breed description.
I loved watching her ears at the beginning.
I kept wanting to reach through my screen to fix the buckle on her halter.
Hahaha, you should have, it needed a little fixing'! Thanks Beth!
I wonder if her shape contributed to her miscarries. The poor baby! Thank God she is in a safe haven now!
I don't know a lot about her history. But you may be right.
Another great job. However, Arabian Horses have 1 less thoracic than the normal horse, like a Thouroughbred or even a Percheron. Best Regards and Stay Safe Everyone from Ontario, Canada, Jenn.
Hi Jennifer, you are absolutely correct, my bad. I knew that on my exams, and It slipped my mind. Thank you.
@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen As I work with horses daily mostly rehabilitating them from injury. And I used to own an Egyptian Arabian myself. That's why I know this. So Stay Safe and have a great week-end!! From Ontario, Canada, Jenn.
@@jenniferlehman2464 Thank you Jennifer, so glad you are here! Doc
Dr. Doug, we need you at our animal rescue in tenerife. we have more than 300 animals
Another nice job. Best wishes from UK. 💕
Hi Red! Thank you! Cheers!
Good grief, you're amazing! Subscribed.
Hi Julia, thank you for subscribing and watching this video! I appreciate the support and kind words. Dr. Doug Willen
She trusted the doc and standing, complying like we human do when go to Dr. office. So gentle soul.
A kill pen is the auctions where horses are dumped to be sold for slaughter, usually for human consumption in Europe. When the last three horse slaughter plants were closed (Kaufman, TX Ft Worth, TX and DeKalb, IL) horse slaughter hasn't stopped, it means America's unwanted horses are still sold for meat, they are shipped to Mexico and Canada.
Great video thank u for sharing
Thanks for watching! Glad you to got to see this video! Have a great Sunday! Doc
It is always amazing to me how trusting these animals are after all that they went through. She is so gentle. I am a little afraid of horses they are so large, but I hope I can get over that fear someday.
Absolutely amazing.. Use to come up to NY a lot before the Pandemic. Would love to come see this chiro for myself!!
She is a stunning mare...Shame on people rescuing her from a kill pen to just make more!!Thank goodness u guys saved her.
He was lucky to find such a well hand raised horse for this demonstration. It’s obvious that as a foal someone really worked with her. Some people wouldn’t be that acquiesced to treatment.
Amasing job you Are doing for the animals.
Awww sweet mellow cutie pie! Such a beauty!😍
Hi R.E. Thank you! 😊
She knew you were helping her.
She is a beautiful horse!
My Quarab has a big round rib cage too.I have heard that it can be from a protien deficiency early in life.
Thank you, I don't know the cause, I will do more research. That is interesting.
I thought this was a joke! Amazing work! More please!
She is beautiful...😍
I totally agree, inside and out!
Wow nice work 🌹
Did anybody notice her happy dapples? Gorgeous mare.
Well-bred Arabians have great minds, they're the best I've ever trained, along with Paso Finos.
She looks like a great Arab-Thoroughbred cross.
Hi Doug I treated an Arabian here in Sydney recently.With a similar large thorax and Rib cafe. I found the ilia being AS .Which you did on the RHS..Large Rib cages seem to always be AS rather than PI, in the Pelvis.
Hi Neil! Wow, thanks for stopping by! Yes, I see much more AS, probably a lot has to do with gravity too. And I see more PI's if the horse fell on the ground. Thank you so much for watching. I wish I could come to Sidney and visit, and adjust horses together! Maybe one day!
Layla is beautiful.....her coat is gorgeous. I don't know much about horses, but I thought that was what Arabians were known for ...their intelligence. Is that the same as a "good mind"?
What a sweet girl.
Hi Nora, thank you, I agree, sooooo sweet!
She had her beady eye on you but overall I think she knew you were safe.
She was a little scared, I agree, but I think by the end I got the job done and gave her some relief. If I see her again, it will probably be easier, too.
Horses don't have beady eyes. And this one has wide soft brown eyes. She is a bit nervous at times but her eyes kept going back to soft.
@@sassykat2000 Thank you Sassy for putting me straight. I hope you are well.
She is very beautiful
She is beautiful.
You are wonderful with animals
What a beauty. I love her color,.
“for an Arabian” as an Arabian owner I resent that remark.
I'm sorry if I offended you, I hope you forgive me. Dr. Doug
Dr Doug, you didn’t say anything offensive, the blond lady said “she has a pretty good mind for an Arabian” which is ridiculous. I really was not offended because people who don’t know Arabians are always saying silly things like that. I have owned quarter horses, Arabians and Haif Arabians for almost 25 years. As you well know, all horses, regardless of breed, have different personalities which is influenced by the way they are treated. You did a wonderful job making this horse feel better. I enjoy watching you and will continue to watch. Great job.
@@ew6862 Thank you, I was afraid I was being offensive. I really love working with horses, and I continue to learn more every day. I am taking a course this month that I'm excited about,from these two teachers that have this website: hoofandbody.com It is a week long course so I have to close my office. We will study the hoof, dental, and reading the muscles, posture, and soft tissue as it relates to movement, stress, and function. I keep investing in my education, because I feel it is a life long journey. Any insights from you or other experienced horse people will always be appreciated! Thank you!
The horses are fortunate to have you! Wish you lived close to me.
@@ew6862 what part of the world do you live?
How can anyone send such a sweet horse to a kill pen? Or any horse for that matter? Thank you for helping her.
Arabians actually have one less vertebrae that's why their backs are shorter and that's why she looks so full down below her ribs compared to other horses and she's not super level Over the Top Line so that's wonderful conformation
They usually have fewer ribpairs too
This is so interesting
She looked at him like, how did you do that?
Haha, maybe she did! Thanks Cathy!
She looks like a Polish Arab. Better mind and fuller body. She looks like a show horse at one time. She’s pretty 🥰
Such a sweet girl.
She is so kind and calm. For me the "big ribcage" looks pregnant.
The big belly... how long ago was she in goal or it could be what we call in Scotland a grass belly which horses can get if they are kept in all winter on hay and hard feed and are then turned out onto pasture.
Good mind for an Arabian? People are very uneducated about Arabians. They are very intelligent, they slept in the tents of their Bedouin owners, they were part of the family. You can read about their origin. They need interaction and activity to engage their minds so they don't develop bad habits out of boredom. It’s like people think anything that doesn’t stand still and stare into space all day has a problem. I can’t believe she said that. It’s like people can’t handle anything that isn’t dumb and stupid. Do you know how many horse breeds we wouldn’t have without Arabian blood in the foundation of the breed?
Thank you Cathy, I really appreciate the contribution. I respect horses, and Arabians are truly extraordinary!
03:25 She like: "Uh ah uh oh"
That opening made me jump too lol
Hi X, it surprised me too!
A horse chiropractor? Now I've heard everything!
Where did you get the block you stand on and carry around with you? What is it made out of?
She looks pregnant. Beautiful horse
Kool!
I would not be surprised if i see Dc. Willen adjusts an alien one day. 👽
Hahaha, that is funny, because Aliens are on my bucket list!
@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen I can just hear some Alien chatting up his pals about you: "Yeah Zork, so I know this humanoid, does a hell of a job! Now the place is waay out in the South end of the Galaxy sooo..."🤣🤣
@@b3j8 Hahaha, that's awesome. That's how I see it, too! I hope they are hearing good things about me... out in the far away galaxy!
This chiro doesn’t know that the safest way to pass behind a horse is as close as possible?
You are right.
Are they sure Layla wasn't indeed with foal? I didn't catch how long they'd had her.
No, she definitely wasn't. But she had a few babes during her years. Thanks for watching Kristine!
Whoa that first one was a Doozy.😱 I'll bet She feels so much better now 🌰.
JO JO IN VT 💕😄
Litlle does she know most Arabians have really great minds,it is only until some get with some bad owners that they can be a bit hard to handle.
💝
Why are they holding the leash so tight?? She can’t absorb the adjustments properly it seems, since she was restricted in all head movements….. by the person holding the lead… 😭 it’s kept tight and giving her no room to move her head what so ever.
Please horses are trained not broken.
I would be totally stressed and have seized up neck muscles if I had been that close to a horrible death, too!
I know, the back stories are horrible. Thanks for being here Heather!!
Why are the other person holding the lead so tight?? She can’t even shake, or look around… 😥
I like your name and what you do
If you "rescue" a horse to breed it, it's not a rescue
She is not pure Arabian horse you can tell from its neck and noses and eyes.
so true! Thanks Hassan, I'm so glad you could watch this video!!!
