I had Bonnie read my senior gelding (full-size, 23 year old half-arab), I've had him for 20 years. If I could afford to, I'd have her read all my horses. It was so interesting and informative.
I still can't quite wrap my mind around her discribing him as like Liberace, but I am starting to see it. She likes to compare their personalities with someone we both would "know".
I was happy to know he is content in his personal corral (we built a corral just for him to keep him safe from the other horses, my husband's mare kicked him a few years ago and left quite a bruise, so...).
I got a kick out of; he thinks he's all that and a bag of chips. Thinks he's a real cow horse; we move cows between pastures a couple times a year and he wants to keep doing it.
He referred to a mare I sold two years ago, as "the b*tch" and wanted to know if she was coming back.
I knew she was gritchy and sometimes a bit hard on him, but I didn't realize he really didn't like her (they were together for 10 years ).
Bonnie also mentioned a few health issues; some new, some very old. All very interesting.
He told her about his back leg and said it still hurt. He told her that he got hurt by an old metal car tire and other metal. I never knew the story of what happened, only that when I looked at him to buy, he was fine and out in a field with 6 mules and a mare; when he was delivered a month later, he had a really nasty cut on his leg (it was covered in proud flesh, the seller said oh it just happened that weekend. I don't think so). I always assumed the other equines ran him into the fence.
All very interesting and much appreciated. Bonnie, if I got anything wrong or you wish to add, feel free to do so.
All in all, an excellent experience.
