  • Spartan survived the racetrack, lived as a work horse, being sold for meat and still is one of the sweetest horses you'll ever meet. From Stringhalt to dislocated ribs, there was a lot for Dr. Doug to work on to get this horse living as comfortable as possible.

    The leading organization, in my opinion, that has Veterinarians and Chiropractors that become Animal Chiropractors is the Animal Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA) They have a website with a "Find a Doctor" tab/database: www.animalchiropractic.org
    This a good resource for all that are looking for a well trained doctor near them.

    Race horses are NOT work horses. I can't think of anything nice to say about the Amish. Spartan is a gorgeous elegant boy and the Amish certainly didn't deserve him. Thank you for saving him and giving him a loving home.

    • @florac6906

      I don't understand any reason to use horse to plough this day and age . It is absolutely cruel .

    • @Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n
      @Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n Před měsícem +18

      ​@@florac6906 He would probably be used as a carriage horse. Belgium's are the plough horses. It's their job. What they were bred for.
      As for the Armish too many of them treat their horses badly. It is the way they treat them, not the fact they use them for what they were bred for that is the problem.
      They do not get veterinary help when it's need and carry on working them until its too late to treat them. Or are old. Then the horses end up in the slaughter pipe line.
      The slaughter pipe line is terrible. Something I've learned a lot about from Horse Plus Rescue.
      Its nothing like sending a horse to an abattoir in the UK.

      Yes, I've heard they're very cruel. Animals are just things to them.

      I have heard those gossiping lies about the Amish, too.
      However none of you have any experience with the Amish. You just listen to the second hand lies and gossip.

      I'm not a fan of the level, or lack thereof, of care given to horses that came from the Amish that I work on. However, this is a Standardbred racehorse, not a thoroughbred. I had a barn of standardbred racehorses (both pacers and trotters) on my book until gas went up and it was too far to travel. Thoroughbreds would likely do very poorly as cart horses on the road, and not saying it's right, but these standardbreds are raced pulling a person on hard surfaces, so at least they are as prepared for that rough life better than what most think of as a "racehorse."

    I think people tend to forget that animals have muscles and bones just like us 😂 they are just as prone as we are. You are an absolutely beautiful soul for helping those we can’t communicate with. If not people like you, who else?! I hope your career leads you to do more good. ❤

  • @JimmyYahteez
    @JimmyYahteez Před 4 měsíci +148

    It’s as if the animals realize after the first minute or so of the adjustment that Dr. Doug is making them feel better and is a friend there to help them. It’s amazing to watch. Keep up the good work Dr. Doug!

    Dr. Doug, I absolutely love watching your videos and greatly appreciate the relief that you provide these beautiful creatures. Since your patients can’t speak to let you know what is bothering them physically, you let their bodies (bones, muscles, etc)speak for them. What you do for your patients is truly amazing! Thank you for all that you do!💕😊👍👏🥇💕

  • @florac6906

      Sounds like it was going to be butchered out, so not really throwing away. Just livestock.

  • @heatherburrell
    @heatherburrell Před 23 dny +2

    Not for the first time that I've seen a big horse, hurt, discarded and rescued after the amish used them. I'm just happy that some animals are lucky to be rescued after they've been used and have no more value for those that treat animals like machines or something to profit from. But even more lucky, they get you visiting! Your calm demeanor really helps, plus we all learn alot from you 😊❤

  • @YorkistRaven
    @YorkistRaven Před 4 měsíci +70

  • @OliveTaylor-no3vc
    @OliveTaylor-no3vc Před měsícem +7

    You should always ask your horse if they mind if you ride them, if you don’t get a response take it as a NO !!! Just love and appreciate them for what they are and not for what they can do for you !!

    • @Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n
      @Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n Před měsícem +2

      Really!
      Yes we should have respect and care of all animals, but we do have dominion over them.
      Who's the boss you or the animal. The attitude they are equal is why we have dangerous or badly behaved dogs and horses.

    Spartan seems very sad & hurt. This horse fell & it's ribs popped out (same thing happened to my friend). The problem with these injuries is they often misalign again because the muscles are inflamed. Like humans great care needs to be taken afterwards, massage & topical creams can help in the healing process. Amazing AMAZING PEOPLE, thank you.
