animal communicator has spoken to pilgrim - your thoughs???

What's that quote from International Velvet, Anthony Hopkins....
Isn't it 'Horses are only marignally less stupid than those who ride them' or 'sit on their backs' or something like that?
So true
 
not at all :)

i used Jackie Weaver, if you google her you will find her website. i think its worth it as i think it is not expensive - especially as she new my horse was hurting and then we found he was slightly lame an i have missed it!!!

A friend of mine used JW recently and was absolutely amazed with the reading. She said JW recounted stories that no one else knew, that friend hadn't told her and were very specific.
 
Aregona..........I'm pleased you got some answers, now at least you have something to go on and work from there.

For the skeptics.............I got a reading done and due to having a difficult mare I sought out all the options available to me two things that really stand out for me are:
1) We had been jumping the previous tuesday and misjudged a fence (spectator flapping a coat at the side of the fence) and my mare came down sort of over the top of the fence, it was the 2nd one on the course. An experience we never had before and hopefully we'll never repeat. we demolished the entire fence, however we circled got our composure back and continued on more to get a bit of confidence back. We came out of the ring and I said to my OH what an awful "clatter" we made - The communicator said to me that my mare was telling her about having a scary moment with a fence recently and we created an awful clatter, and we demolished a fence!! then she went on to say that I had reassured her and she didn't loose any confidence over it.

2) I always go into the stables saing hello to all the horses I greet my mare with a touch of my finger on her nose and say Hello Georgeous! Communicator said that she's telling me she loves you touching her Nose and calling her Georgeous!!!!! she said that was special for her!!

Now those words are too exact.............I've never met this woman, she's from England, I told her nothing. Of course there where many other things she said that where 100% but those two really stood out!!
 
There are charlatans and there are truly gifted people. A lot of what you have been told seems to make perfect sense so definately worth a try! by a banana shaped back - do you mean a roach back? and what other saddles did your saddler suggest to work around that problem?

Funnily enough I have been having lessons with a new SJ trainer - who only does SJ. So he completely ripped the proverbial from me about trying to SJ my horse as though I am riding a dressage test - and my other trainer tells me to think differently about SJ v eventing.. doh. But both have said to stop fussing about a nice outline - horse will need to raise his head slightly to look at the fence, let the horse meet the fence however he feels comfortable - and also to stop trying to jump off a long stride (apparently its another well known eventing fault!) - so Pilgrim asking you to let him jump how he wants to makes sense! I for one, am looking forward to your follow up..
 
These people are amazing! I had Isobel Hogton out, shes due back in Dec so will post how that goes then. Here are AFEW things she said, she looked at my 3 horses, and ive got pages of notes written down with what she said. She also did the rest of the yard, so 7 horses in total and all of us were amazed!
1) she told me one of my horses was very scared 2 weeks previous, he had been sweating and very unhappy in the horsebox. He thought he was getting poisened by the fumes, and the engine was very noisy. - Sure enough 2 weeks earlier the exhaust had gone on the horsebox, and he kicked all the way home, and came off the lorry dripping in sweat!
2) He told her he hated his double bridle i rode him in, and wanted the snaffle with a lozenge in the middle that he hacked in to be used all the time. I took him out the next show in the bit he wanted, and we won the championship!
3) Told her i wasnt a morning person, and was always rushing! He also said out hacking he walks quicker than the other 2 i hack with, and i turn round over my right hand side and talk to them!! So true!
4) My other horse told her he had injured his hind leg in the field, and it had taken 9 months to heal. He was on box rest and very grump. He did indeed do this to his leg, and it did take 9months to heal!
and lastly, because your prob all very bors by now..
5) my mare listed a number of things she didnt like! (eg a blue checked rug she hates!) also said she doesnt like her ears being touched, infact Isobel said upon driving down the lane where my yard is, she could picture a horses ear, but didnt know at that point which horses ear it was. My mare is a nightmare with one ear, Isobel said she was twitched by a man on it.

I cannot wait for her to come back in Dec.
 
OP regardless of whether we're believers or not, I think you did the right thing getting the communicator and you now need to try to do everything you can to find out what is physically wrong with your horse and how to fix it through vet, physio, chiros and saddlers etc, then you may just find that your horse is able to do some of the things he can't currently do. He didn't say he "won't" be able to do those things just that he can't - whether that means can't now, or can't ever is to be confirmed I guess.

I am not really "a believer", though I would do anything to help my horse if he needed it, and like others have said, if it's the different between a communicator or a bullet, I would give it a go!!

My horse was in a terrible state when I got him through back pain etc and it has taken 2 years of TLC and patience and he is now going from strength to strength. I think that thanks to your communicator visit you've now got some prescriptive things you can try to tackle and you may be surprised where you and your horse find yourself in 2 or 3 years time!!
 
What sort of price are you looking at for a consultation? I'm not sure whether I believe or not but think it is worth some consideration. Really confused how it can work over the phone.

Roughly £15-£50ish I think. Some will refund if you are not happy with the reading at all, if you think it wasn't remotely accurate. (I posted about a communicator who did this for me. Very fair and honest of her, much appreciated too.)
I have no idea how it works at all, let alone over the phone!
oh, and I'm not the only previously-sceptical-but-now-believing person out there:

Jackie Weaver was £35 I think.............but when she was doing the reading over the phone, she was looking at the photo and almost doing a translation, then I would say ask her...... and she would say she can hear you, just speak direct to her. It was strange to begin with but you soon get into it.
 
For what it's worth, if this is true, you need to remember that your horse only knows what he feels. He doesn't know that you could get the vets to investigate what is wrong with him, and potentially fix it. All he knows is that he feels like this, and how to make it hurt less by moving differently. If you think the communicator was right, then take the symptoms that have been described to you, and investigate them. He could have any number of problems causing this, many of which could be fixed, and then things would change.
 
It's nice to read another good outcome on using a animal comm person. I have one for mine and wouldnt change a thing now. I think when you are the end of your tether with no where else to go you will try anything. This is what I done!! Good luck with yours.
 
The lady who Mrs P chats to has always said to call the vet if I'm concerned that there is a significant problem. Thing is that I would feel a bit of a wally calling the vet out to a perfectly sound and apparently comfortable horse because she's throwing her head in right rein canter transitions, she's decided that her dinner tastes revolting or she seems to violently dislike the girth that I bought her despite the sales blurb saying every horse would love it :o P gets asked her opinion every month usually and sometimes comes out with some corkers ('special instructions' - usually something food-related), but the intent is to keep her on an even keel so any developing problems are headed off at the pass. I wouldn't see the communication as being in any way a substitute for calling out the vet.
 
Guys thank you so much for your input - very much apprieciated!!!

I was very down after the reading after the thought of never actually 'eventing' pilgrim, but with some thought now and an earlier reply from hels-bels i think????? I do agree, he is saying thats he can't do the dr and xc on rough ground but i am hoping if i can sort out his physical problems then maybe i will get there after all!!!!!!

I plan on having jackie speak to him again in a few months after we have started show jumping and see how he is feeling, obviously all of this is after his 3 week holiday he requested (can't believe he pulled that trick on me, lol :) ) and upon reassurance from the vet that whatever is sorting out his fore leg soreness has settled down.

Could any of you with any info, or recommendations of bowen ppl in the south wales area please PM me, i have not tried it before but as you have probably gathered im open to ideas :)
I am also going to post some pics of his back / comformation tomorrow and i would appreciate any input you have as to saddle types and fitter that may suit him better. My current saddler said his saddle is fitting him well so i dont think there is any point going back to him. Please look out for my next post if you have time. THank you everyone. you all deserve pizza and chips. :) :)
 
What a fascinating thread. I LOVE the idea that we could communicate with our animals. We have a horse that likes to climb on the tack locker whilst travelling and I'm going to get a horse "whisperer" to him. A very experienced horse owner friend of mine recently sold a 5 year old which absolutely refused to load, the new owner had a "whisperer" to him and the horse now loads himself:) It must be well worth trying for the amount of money involved. Look forward to hearing how you and Pilgrim progress and hope the SJing goes well, I just hope his next request is not champagne and caviar for brekky:D
 
how des a person 'talk' to a horse especially if the horse is 'saying' he wats a fluffy numnah and to jump 4ft6? how does a horse know how big 4ft6 is and that's what a jump is measured in? why not just 'i want to jump bigger because i'm bored of little jumps' :confused: most horses i know would just demand more food..
 
I think horse communicators sound like they have similar qualities to autistic people (savants). I've read the Horse Boy and apparently the reason autistic people can communicate well with animals is that both see in pictures, which is why autistic people can find it hard to function in 'normal' society.

I'm not saying all communicators are autistic, but maybe they have learned to switch on that part of the brain. Def a thing on the list to do for me :)
 
Apparently communicators can 'clear their mind'. This allows the horse to communicate with them. I would love to be able to clear my mind but if I try to think of nothing loads of things come flooding in!
 
I am another one who has used Jackie Weaver and have always been amazed by the readings, she is spot on every time!

For any non-believers who are going to try having a reading please go into it with an open mind, if you go into it with a negative feeling I don't think you will get as much out if it as you could.

JW has a fab book out called animal insights, it is well worth a read, have some tissues handy though as it will make you cry in places :o :D
 
I can't believe some intelligent-sounding people on this forum would actually give this tosh a second thought! lol.

Seth, I completely understand what you mean, a few years ago I would have said the same as you, no doubt at all.

Fast forward a few years and, having met Jackie Weaver, had her talk to my horses, and having met many other people who have 'used' her amazing talent, I am no longer a sceptic. I don't understand it but I have seen enough to believe in it and that's good enough for me.
 
Aww i think thats quite sweet, i would like one to come out and see my baby horse just to see what he has to say for himself :) i feel me and him have a really good bond and he sort of understands me, i'd most likely cry, wonder if theres any in scotland i shall look it up :)
