Time flies ! Meet Bruno our dog !

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY...!!!

It has been a very very busy summer, we have a new puppy with us named Bruno, he is now approx. 7 months old. So no time for writing these last few months but very busy with raising a puppy and taking care of Whoopi and the cats. Together with going to work, giving TTouch workshops, going to several trainings myself, writing case studies of horses for my TTeam training, maintaining 2 websites, answering mail from customers and so on...I could hardly find time to breath...;-)

Anyway Whoopi is doing fine and we hope for a mild winter. She is changing, she is becoming more and more herself. Where as she used to have a strict schedule in the past today she can choose whatever she wants to do during the day. She really had to adapt to all that freedom she got. But today she enjoys it very much, sometimes she is running in the meadow as a young filly.

Whoopi, Greet & het Droomvanger-team

Wellness treatment by Yannic Ongena, osteopat for horses

Whoopi got treated for the second time by Yannic. First time was a few months ago on the 23rd of December. I was very happy to hear that she thought Whoopi looked really good and had physically and mentally improved since her last visit. Since we moved we have been able to do a lot of TTeam/TTouch groundwork and bodywork which improved Whoopi's balance physically, mentally and emotionally. Yannic checked on Whoopi's legs, her back, her neck - front to back and back to front, left side and right side. Also her stride improved according to Yannic, she has a much larger stride than before. So all in all very good news ! Before Yannic starts her treatment I had to walk Whoopi in small circles and then in straight lines than trot with her in hand, it was more effort for me than for Whoopi.

Pim, the long haired cat always is in the front row when there is something going on.

Cadeau van het Keyzershof

Cadeau (is) was the "little" colt at Droomvanger. He was born on the 5th of May, 2009 he will be 2 years old in a few weeks. But despite his young age he is already HUGE. Whoopi is 1,68m approx. and Cadeau is slowly getting taller than her. One of his grand fathers grew to be 1,90m ! We sincerely hope he doesn't grow that tall too. You can see how tall he is on the last picture; I am 1,73m and he stands way over my head.
Last week Cadeau became a gelding, the last thing we were waiting for is the current hot weather cos the wound stays open to heal; cold weather and rain would have been better as we are now constantly fighting flies to keep them away from his wound.
Today while waiting for the osteopat for Whoopi I gave Cadeau some nice scratching on his itchy spots in his neck.

Spring is in the country !

The horses are enjoying the first spring days with wonderfull sunny weather. Whoopi really enjoys being with the other horses and feels totally at ease in the herd. What a difference with a few months ago !

Picture of Whoopi taken under Vaillant's belly :-)

Whoopi is often together with Pepper, the quarter gelding. He is a quiet horse which she seems to appreciate. I like Pepper too! He is sweet, cool in his head and down to earth and above that a really good looking quarter horse.

Romeo, the dentist for horses

Whoopi had her yearly check-up of her teeth. She behaved impeccable. She stood still and waited patiently for her teeth to be cleaned. She had just 1 little hook that was removed. Next week Yannic, the osteopat comes by to check on Whoopi.

Whoopi's 19th birthday on the 2nd of April, 2011

We celebrated Whoopi's 19th birthday. We did some TTEAM groundwork and bodywork which she both enjoys very much. TTEAM groundwork learns a horse a lot about his/her balance. The TTouches can release and relieve stress and tension in several body parts. She loves the ttouches on her jaws. The head wrap brings her focus to the excercise and the green wrap around her neck learned her again to lower her head when stopping. She could find her balance back without having to put her head up every time she stops.

After all that work the fresh hay was very welcome.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WHOOPI !

Good food...yummy !

Aha, something else is coming...

I have a box in which I have treats for Whoopi, I call it her Magic Box like they do at McDonalds.

She knows her Magic Box very well !!! She gets impatient when it takes too long to take something out and bumps with her head against my...

As far as you can see is the land that the horses can use, the houses in the background are the more or less the borders of the land. The other half is behind me from where I took the picture. Space enough !

Vaillant with Whoopis' bucket : Did you leave anything for me ???

Whoopi sniffs with Indy.

Pepper pays Whoopi a visit.

Grooming time !

Whoopi loves being brushed, especially her tail !

Beautiful Whoopi !
