In the stables, they are still celebrated. But behind these obedient horses lies a painful truth.
A horse that stands as still as a statue—one that always obeys and never pulls even slightly on the lead rope—does not do so out of love for you; it does so because it no longer has an opinion of his/her own. His/her spirit has been broken.
This is not communication; it is what is known as "learned helplessness."
These horses have learned that any "no" on their part will be met with punishment. This is not obedience, nor is it communication; they have simply learned that any opinion of their own that runs counter to the human’s will results in punishment.
This is NOT trust—it is a survival strategy.
For me, the most important thing is to convey to the horse that it is okay to communicate, that it is perfectly fine to say "no"—to let the horse know that his/her "no" is the most valuable piece of information it could possibly provide.
True trust begins when you stop expecting a horse to be 100% "functional" (compliant) and, instead, learn to read his/her subtle signals before his/her nervous system shuts down.

I also carry out rescues like this.
Some friends—who a few years ago might have killed this little creature—reached out to me today, asking me to take care of it, now that I’ve helped them understand the importance of such wildlife.
And so, I did.
A little tarantula, rescued and taken into the jungle, where it was released right in front of my house.
We all have a right to live.
Every little soul counts.
Goodbye, Tulita! 🙂
Thank you, Michael and Angelika.

It makes me so happy to see these three eating together. And to hear them chewing with that calmness horses exude when they eat. 😍
And that’s saying something, since I have misophonia. I can’t stand it with humans, but with horses—oh, I love the sound.
It’s a bit hard to see clearly, but around the 12-second mark, little Miss Sophie pulls the feeder toward herself.
We’ve worked hard to help her feel this secure around the two big guys. Vivaldi was pretty rough with her at first.

Sweet Little Joey.
Arrived 9 years ago
Was born in the streets of Mexico
City, had 11 siblings, his mom, a Saint Bernard was chaind to a wall.
The non profit organization ‘Por Los Que no tienen voz’ rescued all of them. And made it public on their page.
I saw their post, applied for one of the puppies and Joey was sent to Cancun. Traveled by plane with a wonderful
Person in cabin of course. We met at the Cancun Airport and since then Joey is part of our family. He helped me over the loss of my soul dog Giaco who will always be missed but little Joey made it a bit easier.
And he is just such a wonderful
Life partner for me.
Don’t shop, adopt.
There are so many beautiful souls looking for their for ever home.

A big thank you to the mamas who brought them to Luna’s to spend the morning with us. Thank you also so much for your kind contribution
Together we make a difference ♥️
