NEWS FROM FOUR LEGS & A SOUL 4

NEWS FROM FOUR LEGS & A SOUL

BROOKE’S UPCOMING APPEARANCES

Join me at the Illinois Horse Fair in Springfield, IL, March 5th-7th.  In addition to the Four Legs & A Soul booth, I will be presenting a seminar both Saturday and Sunday. De-Mystifying Animal Communication will constitute a practical introduction to animal communication techniques and theories.  These one-hour presentations will focus on empowering individuals to reach out to animals using their own language.  The vocabulary of animal communication consists of images, thoughts, sensations and emotions; during these educational talks, I will provide participants with the tools to use this vocabulary to communicate fluently with animals. 

De-Mystifying Animal Communication with Brooke Baxter:
Saturday, March 6th at 11 AM
Sunday, March 7th at 3 PM
LC Seminar Hall, Illinois Sate Fairgrounds, Springfield, IL

For more information, contact Brooke or the Horseman’s Council of Illinois.

BROOKE’S FOCUS ON RESCUE

E.A.R.S. or Equine Angels Rescue Sanctuary is an incredible organization founded by Frank Weller.  Over the last nine years, Frank has placed over 260 foals into forever homes and has had a significant impact on the industry, helping to keep horses out of the feedlots and end the cycle of pain for Premarin mares and their babies. 

I have a long-standing relationship with E.A.R.S. and Frank, having volunteered my services to the foster program for many years.  In addition, Wood’s and my beloved Clydesdale, Hudson, was among Frank’s earliest rescues. 

The spotlight is on Deja in this month’s newsletter.  Deja is a 20-month old jet-black Premarin filly with an angelic disposition and soul-searching eyes.  She has had the best of care since arriving on the East Coast as a weanling and after a successful and happy foster experience as well as professional handling and training, she is ready for her forever home.  Deja is a draft cross and will be a big but elegant girl suited to many riding pursuits and most of all, eager for love and companionship.  

Deja is currently in the NY/CT area but has the opportunity to "hitch a ride" to the Midwest next week when one of her fellow PMU fillies goes to her forever home in northern IL.  Deja's current foster family will be moving due to a job change and therefore can no longer foster her.  

Please consider welcoming Deja into your heart and home.  

For more information about Deja and other available PMU foals, please contact Brooke or Frank Weller, founder of E.A.R.S.


THIS MONTH, BROOKE RECOMMENDS…

DYNAMITE RELEASE
This is one of my favorite products!  The Release spray has so many wonderful, practical applications and I consider it an essential tool in my holistic first aid kit.  Made from pure distilled water and organic flower essences, Release works on a vibrational level, opening the body, mind and soul to the experiences at hand.  This light, delicate mist has a very mild, clean aroma that makes it appealing and unobtrusive for the animals. 

Release is incredibly useful with nervous, injured animals, helping them to settle for treatment.  It is also a terrific tool prior to bodywork, vet visits, massage, grooming and competition of any kind, allowing the physical body to soften and accept touch.  So-called “cold-backed” horses benefit greatly from Release prior to riding.  Cats and dogs who struggle with traveling, having their nails trimmed, being examined by the vet, groomer or judge, and other stressful environments will quickly relax under the soothing influence of Release, which makes muscles malleable and accepting.

WITH LIGHT,
FOR THE ANIMALS,
BROOKE
