I was absolutely flabbergasted, confounded, shocked and dismayed when I heard what Nita said after our Live Q&A Coaching Class: “…The usual enriching and awesome live call… my main takeaway, simple and basic as it sounds, is to practice with unknown pets with feedback.

Pet owners often wish their dog could talk – then they would know for sure when their dog is in pain. Like people do sometimes, even if your beloved pet could speak to you, he might try and hide his pain. Dogs have a natural instinct not to show weakness, so they often literally grit their teeth and try to wait out illness or injury. Communicating with them is a great way to open the channels to true understanding where you can discuss pain, concerns and get their direct feedback. However, not everyone knows how to communicate with animals, yet. And that means you have to carefully monitor your pet so you will know when he needs your help. […]

This article was previously published March 23, 2012 and was updated on March 16, 2023 Welcome saddle fit specialist Sabine Schleese to the Real Dr Doolittle Show™ Sabine Schleese (pronounced SHLAYZA) has been Director of Corporate Affairs of Schleese Saddlery since 1986, when her husband, German Certified Master Saddler and Equine Ergonomist Jochen was asked to be Official Saddler for the World Dressage championships. Together they have changed the face of saddle fitting in the equestrian industry. When they first arrived, saddles were treated like commodities. They were basically bought off the shelf – either they fit or they didn’t – and if they didn’t, there was really no one capable of fitting them properly or repairing them. They began a Saddle Ergonomist certification course allowing equine professionals insight into diagnosing and analyzing issues arising from poor saddle fit. Sabine and her company have received many industry and professional awards, […]
