Leo was gobsmacked how good that felt and he was like 'Oh....well OK then!!!' Yawning, lowering his head, licking and chewing....you left him feeling good! Bless!

[@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen]

Yes for sure ! He was so funny! Such a great guy thanks yorkist!

Leo said okay I’m good, strange Fella what he does. I’m going in , I’m not sure about this yet.

It never crossed my mind that animals can get adjusted too, their reactions range from "Awwwww Yessssssss!!!!!" to "WTF Was That?!?!"😆😆 I love Leo's reaction when he had his left leg adjusted, the smile was too cute

I love your descriptions 😂😂😂😂 They are exactly right!

His eyes were so deeply relaxed at the end, I thought he'd just fall asleep right there! What a gentleman of a horse - great work as always, Dr. Doug. 🤗

I'm just over here laughing at Leo loving every second of this.

[@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen]

So glad you loved every second of it !

[@toddfraisure1747]

I used to assist with a very talented chiropractor on horses. Some horses just stood there and took it in stride. I liked it when they would actually get affectionate trying to show their relief. A few veterans would actually come running up when they saw our truck pull in.

[@jenniferlehman326]

Leo, you are quite the character!! Opening your stall door as if to say, "OK, I'm done!!" LOL 🤣 But you got a lot of good cracks and responses to the adjustments you made, Doc. The yawning was a great sign of accepting all of the adjustments. Your friend the Retired Paramedic, and a S&R Dog and Handler Trainer and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦

[@julier.1902]

Him opening the door just killed me! How funny! Horses are sassy and snarky and oh so much fun!

[@jenniferlehman326]

​@julier.1902 Yes, they sure can be!! Both my old mares were escape artists. I called both of them "female Houdini's"!!! One actually opened a gate and went swimming down a river!! I ended up 5 miles by road away from where she was supposed to be. Thank goodness it was summer!! I swam out to her, fashioned a soft rope halter, and then I rode her home, with my girlfriend following us with her 4 way flashers on!! The other one knew how to open doors and got into the feed room one time. I literally had to padlock that door after she did that, the one with the river, we made sure there was a Rappelling Clip on the gate, because she knew how to open the gate to the boat launch. They will give you grey/gray hair, but each one is worth the joy they bring us!! I wish you many blessings for a good week ahead of you!! Jenn 💖

Thanks Jennifer always like your stories!

[@jenniferlehman326]

@@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen Not stories though, that's the scary part!! It's the truth!! You ever have to ask a farmer if you can jump into the river ahead of your horse from his land?

[@348Tobico]

I am surprised Leo didn't just collapse and go to sleep right where he stood. He was calm when you started but he really wanted to drop and sleep when you finished. What a gift to be able to see immediate relief for your expert effort. The reactions you get from horses is so funny. I bet they hear your voice on later visits and can't wait to see you!

I love seeing all of the animals get this great level of care, but the horses really touch my heart in particular. When you think about what they go through and how so many of them are disposed of, it can break your heart. But then great groups like this save beautiful horses like Leo, and Dr. Doug comes along and gives them relief from pain. It really is a wonder.

Leo’s facial expressions were the best!❤

[@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen]

[@Noybiee]

Leo was sooo relaxed after the first few adjustments, and that's definitely what you want a horse to feel with you. I remember riding a lazy and stubborn kind of horse sometimes a few years ago during riding lessons and I'd get enthusiastic compliments from my riding teacher about how relaxed the horse was and how he just pooped at the very first minutes during riding and how I was direct in my way of communicating with the horse. This reminded me of back then and it's so beautiful and enlightening to see Leo being like "Ooohh Yeaahhh..."❤

[@mihorsewoman]

Hi, Mayor Leo!! I know you feel better after those great adjustments Dr Doug gave you!! ❤ He's awesome! And, so are you! ❤🐴

Yes! was a surprise for me too! 😅

[@DipityS]

Leo was so good for his session - except when he stamped back over to this bedroom that first time 😂 He's been through so much - I'm glad his mum had you work with him to help him live more comfortably. He really did show his reactions - more than any other horse I can recall - he almost seemed to be aware what was going on - or perhaps that what you were doing was making his hurts disappear.

[@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen]

Aww wow thank you DipityS for watching and sharing your words.

[@samuelsasunov8724]

Aww, Dr Willen, Leo was so cute and funny. At 6:10 his reaction was like, “Don’t forget to look at my teeth, I take really good care of them and brush them everyday .” The ending part was funny 😄 as well, Leo is charming in his own way. Dr Doug, you’re really awesome 👏, everyone loves you and it’s impossible to not to. Thank you 🙏 for your beautiful heart ❤️, your talent and your generosity. Have a nice 👍 week doc

[@AnimalCrackerDrDougWillen]

It sounds funny when you say that! Actually Leo was showing a flehmen response, it has two significations, 1 horses curl the upper lip to transfer scent mostly pheromones in the jocobson or VNO organ. 2 horses do that as well when they have ulcer colic or stomach pain, or mare do that normally after giving birth. I think Leo caught a particular scent at that moment. Thanks Emma for always being here.

[@peacelove7706]

Thanks Vaga glad you like the photo! 6:13 this is called a flehmen response. Horses do that to transfer a scent mostly pheromones to their Jacobson or Vomeronasal organ.
