I really didn't believe it at all, absolute cynic, but 78 reviews of 5 star and no bad reviews really makes me wonder. Surely nobody could "guess" accurately enough to wow that many people?

I'm a huge cynic too and hate to be so negative but having read the first 6 or 7 reviews can't help thinking how similar they are in style and choice of words...I might well be wrong of course. :)
 
I'm seriously cynical about this but I had someone come to my yard and do this and I can hand on heart say that all the horses suddenly went very very quiet and she told me several things about a few horses that she couldn't have known prior....I find it all very odd :/
 
I am also a cynic- I don't believe in psychic readings etc, I think they are just good body language readers and prey on people looking for answers. HOWEVER, a friend of the family is the son of a very well known animal comunicator in America. It was about 7 years ago and I can't remember her first name but surname was fitzpatrick. She has a TV show. Anyway, after I lost my mare milly he said he'd ask his mum to do a reading- I just had to send a photo. What she told me she could never have known in a million years, about the injury she had, which leg and even down to a preference of the headcollar that the YO used (parelli) to the one I used (regular). The detail was shocking and I do believe she is gifted but that there are also a lot of charlatans out there!
 
If you really watch a lot of readings on TV and such you can see how readers will often probe a person with a lot of questions and wait to get the answers out of them. They'll also lead into the questions and manage to blow off or wave off misstaken information. In fact some get more wrong than they get right; but people remember the right because it spooks them and sticks in the brain more (WOW they knew that!).


As for animal readers I would think most of that is a skill; but not a magical one. It's a skill in being able to read an animals language and communicate that back to them. Its an awareness and understanding of those animals that most people can gain if they spend enough time and get the right instruction. However I think many people have a disposable level of attention to animal communications thus often find it hard to really read an animals language - plus modern language makes heavy use of words but heavily underplays visual elements. So many of us grow up with a poor grasp of body language which makes it harder to then learn another body based language
 
The one we had done on my dartmoor when he came back from down south unridable when he went away a kids pony was entertaining! This was just from a picture. No phone calls, no meeting the pony or nowt.

Basically through all the flumf and flowers it boiled down to the pony wanting to be called Free and not Freebie and he wanted a new red feed bucket.

In reality we did that whilst waiting for an appointment with the McTimmony practitioner. Now her words I can believe - his body felt like he had been hit by a truck side on! He was sore everywhere. I can only assume something happened to him during transport as he left me the nicest wee ride on the planet. He is still at home with me now 10 years later lol!
 
My friend had the lady posted above out today and apparently even brought up things about our third friend from the past and her shouting, the mare hasn't been around in years, no posts on social media (and there definitely wouldn't be anything about her shouting) about said friend, she lives miles away now. Very strange, first time I've ever questioned the legitimacy of it.
 
We have one with an excellent reputation near us, I really want her to come and meet my dog as I know a lot of his history and we are incredibly close, I can read him exceptionally well, so I am keen to see his reaction to her.
My friend had her to see her difficult horse and had some very interesting stuff come up, stuff that only they knew about his past. He also talked about "the small person" that he liked having around, the owner had a young son but no evidence of that in the stable area.
It got more intriguing when they had the chiro out to the horse and they got chatting - she wouldn't speak until she knew they "believed", but she had the communicator out to talk to her horse. The dogs came in one by one and started butting in, the first said they didn't like the nanny, the second said they didn't like the nanny and neither did the children, 3rd repeated similar, but then the cat came in (!!) and said they didn't like the nanny because she hit the children. So they confronted the nanny and sure enough, she confessed to smacking and hitting their youngest child. They spoke to the children later and the older boy confirmed that she hit his sister but she had caught them playing with matches one day (which they know they are not allowed so were scared of being in trouble) and threatened to tell their parents about it if they said anything about her hitting.
Think what you like, but she had no way of even knowing they HAD a nanny.
 
I think its all body language. But i also think i would be a little afraid to get someone in case they would tell me "your horse hates you, sell it"

It's stories like this that make me really question! I don't see how they could know things like that?

Equi Ha! I think if they spoke to my new horse he'd probably say he misses his old owner and his pampered lifestyle!
 
Someone I know uses one and every time she can't believe how accurate it is, she knows loads of things that are going on with the horse right now... of course she does... friend posts about it on FB and is friends on FB with the communicator...
 
Was on the fence with this, until recently...... engaged someone from the other side of the country recommended on here. The details included in the subsequent account of my boy's thoughts were almost all ( apart from just one) apposite, accurate and timely, including a amazing reference to some unexpected treatment he had had a matter of weeks before - and no, my boy didn't 'describe' the treatment in medical terms, ( animals wouldn't) just expressed surprise, pain, and worry about any repeat...... this was not treatment that could be divined by the one photograph I sent, or by his type, and I am not active on social media.
Pm if you want contact details......
 
I'm a sceptic, but had one out years ago out of interest, who was a work colleague of a friend of mine - she did it for a hobby, and didn't charge a penny. She'd only ever done dogs and cats and had never done a horse and knew nothing about them. My friend had told her precisely nothing, only my name and the address of the yard to come to.

She shook my belief system, because she was able to tell me some very specific things. About my newly acquired horse "He misses the cat that sleeps with him." Only I had gone into the stable where he came from and seen a hollow in the shavings in the corner, the original owner told me the cat slept there and I'd not given it another thought or told a soul. I'd also seen what I now know is a tongue twister lick toy on the stable wall. She told me he missed something purple that was on the wall and he could move. It was purple.

About the horse I had had for a year or so, and who I knew to be very "shut down" and anti human (but you would need to spend time with him to recognise this) she got...sweet FA. In her words, he said "Nah!" and that was it. She could have spun me a yarn, but she didn't.

There were lots and lots of other things about my new horse, 2 A4 sides when she wrote it up later, and as I said she didn't charge a penny. Go figure, as they say.

Thats amazing! But the question is... did you get another purple licky thing??
 
I've also used Sara Coppin, a couple of times, she was amazing, told me things she could not have possibly known. On one point I disagreed with the way she was describing something, explained to my husband later and I was the one who had got it wrong (basically got my left and right mixed up!). Hoping to book her soon for my new horse.
I've always had a healthy skepticism but Sara was absolutely amazing!
 
Had a photo one done when I was desperate to figure out what was wrong with my horse. I thought the horse would be screaming out a problem to a psychic if such people existed. The guy was well thought of on Facebook groups. Absolutely rubbish. I tried to make what he said fit but the reality was it didn't. He suggested the horse had a trapped nerve in his neck/shoulder. The vets/physios/chiros and I found a whole load of stuff wrong but that wasn't even close.

It depends, but the one near me is only about £30 or so plus travel. I have heard of ones who charge £100 or thereabouts but I don't know how they get any business - I don't mind taking a gamble on £30 but that's just too much!
 
I've never had one out, but have heard some of their 'readings' for others and the ones they've had out sound a bit useless.

I don't need to be paid money to know that B likes to jump, doesn't like the black and blue sign in the indoor, is a bit wary of strange men and doesn't think he gets enough food :D

Similarly to psychics, I feel like the real deal are not the people who charge lots of money and advertise themselves a lot. A lot of them pick up on the horses behaviour and are very general, as well as looking at the type of horse/researching the horse through social media and if it has a registered name (so they'd know if it's an ex-racer or if it's got a show record)
 
i am quite cynical about this but recently had Cooper Wilson out, i am not friends with him on FB and gave him no info other than my nickname.........i didnt tell him my surname, horses name, horses problem, horses intended use etc, nothing.

he got a few things right, a few things wrong and some half way. But there were a couple of things that i really dont know how he could have known relating to a family illness and another horse as very few people know and most that do know are not horsey and gave me 2 things to try with the horse in question and give it 2 weeks to have an effect.

i am only a few days in so will try and remember to report back but the 2 things were not things any other health professional has queried so it will be interesting to see how it pans out.

he was a lovely, funny,polite guy with a lot of horse sense in any case, so not a waste of time or money at all.
 
Sasquatch, you are quite right - there will be unfortunately lots of people cashing in who are not 'doing it' at all but just basing it on what is in front of them and what they have got from social media; then there will be a number of people who genuinely think they are 'doing it' but are not very accurate - I had one of these some years ago - unfortunately nothing at all was relevant to my boy but she was mortified and refused to take any payment. Then there are the few that totally knock you for six with what they say. These are the ones that make you rethink your belief system if you are open-minded enough.
 
I am such a cynic I am totally unbelieving. Those of you who think they talk to your horse, even via photo media I assume you also believe in God and fairies?
Not actually intending to be as rude as it possibly sounds, but horses do not even 'talk' to each other using the English language, let alone to us.
