24 Feb 2004 I first heard about Bill Northern 18 months ago when I was looking for someone to help me figure out my stallion social problems with humans. I wrote a message on a horse forum and a reply came up about Bill with a few web pages to read. Funnily enough I forgot to follow it up as I read he lived in the USA. Then at the start of 2004, when I came back from holiday, my Bossette Clare McGowan. asked me if I was interested in this guy talking to my horses. I was keen as they come and infact I had several for him to visit. I left a message on Alistar Cox's phone asking if I could book Bill in to see 4 horses of mine and 2 for Clare. One day I got a phone call with the only appointment left before Bill left for the South Island where then he was to fly out to Honululu. The problem was I was flying out in 2 hours to Christchurch and wasnt going to be back until 4 hours after he had been. Well after a few phone calls organizing people to pick up my horses and take them where Bill was going to be and someone to video along with writing my questions I wanted answered I hoped on a plane. All afternoon on Sunday I wanted to know how it was going. I basically got of the plane and rang my friend Aimee, who was there to find out what it was like. She said he was amazing..She videoed it all for me so the next day I sat and watched it all. I was shocked. He was just standing there next to the horses who had just been pulled out of a box and tied up in front of him. He said things about each horse that you just couldnt guess.
NIK - Grey station bred gelding- Bill asked him what he liked doing. I was concerned he was getting on in age and didnt want to push him if he didnt want to do it anymore. Nik told him he wasnt a dressage horse but was a fantastic jumper and that he was really fast and could jump big fences at speed. This is too true. He still wanted to jump. This made my day as he is a very good jumper. Nik refuses to do any sort of dressage, but he'll jump all day. He is the best and safest hunter you would ever sit on. Nik said he only likes to do enough dressage to warm up for the jumping. This is a horse that I can only canter to warm up. He cant trot properly, so I dont do it. He is happy when I just canter him around for 10 minutes and then start jumping. When it came to the diet. Nik has always done better when in work. He just drops away when he is out of work even if it was only a few weeks. Bill said he was getting fed his vitamins but his body wasnt absorbing them. Because Nik had come of a station where they do it hard his body hadnt received the vitamins he needed and had forgotten how to absorb them. Alistar Cox did some work on him and I have just brought him back into work and he is the fattest he has ever been and he was turned out with out feed and just a mineral block. Asked him why he got nervous at the shows. Well Nik said its because I get really nervous and that upsets him. Nik also said I had to memorise my courses. Though I dont get lost when Im going, I do panic about where the first fence is, when I walk in. Bill said I need a wine before I compete. Since I cant really do that I take my Bach Flowers remedy to chill me out. I only get nervous because Nik jumped out of the ring and slammed into a horse and truck at a show. Clare my horse physio found his neck majorly out which caused his neck muscles to be like they had tetnus. Bill said he had a veterbrae fused in his neck and though it didnt hurt anymore, he still waited for it.
BLAZE - Bay station bred gelding This is my mum's plodder schoolmaster, that I steal for showhunter. Everyone rides Blaze cause he is so quiet. I was worried because I felt towards the end of 2003 he was going off his jumping. He had a major injury in his near hind 18 months ago which put him out for 8 months. Since then he has been doing a bit of everything with everyone. This must of confused him, because Bill said Blaze didnt know what his purpose was. Blaze is a funny guy, he seems so laid back, but actually did get quite wound up and stressed. Bill found an ulcer and recommened yoghurt in his diet. When Blaze was asked what he wanted to do. He said he wanted a holiday. He liked jumping but he was sore. He wants to be a dressage horse for awhile, because he can really move. This horse has amazing movement. So I have stepped off and given him back to my Mum to do dressage on and cruize. We also have to tell Blaze what he is going to be doing day to day, which has worked amazingly. He doesnt get stressed anymore when we go places. We also told Blaze that his purpose is to look after my mum and he'll have a cruizey life.
KAHU (BS Kahurangi) - Black and white pinto stationbred stallion. This is the stallion I wanted Bill to do 18 months ago. Very quiet and spooky guy. He ran wild on a station for 11 years, on the east coast of the North Island in New Zealand, before I got him 4 years ago. He is the only horse that I cant figure out. I treat all my stallions and colts like normal horses, because that way I havent had problems with handling them.. The stallions are only separated when breeding season is on. Bill said Kahu thinks he is just like the others and didnt know what his purpose was. Straight away I thought, "How the heck do you tell a gorgeous stallion what his purpose is". We came up with showing him all his stunning progeny he has thrown for us. He didnt know they where his. I like to do in hand showing with him for publicity purposes, but we have always had a problem with finding someone that he likes to lead him. As soon as a leader spooks him or get angry with him he refuses to lead. I have always let him choose his leader. Amazing enough he is quite particular. It might sound stupid but it works. I have never really had a good bond with him so I try to get someone he likes. He told Bill he loves me but doesnt respect me, because I have only ever told him when he was bad and never praised him when he was good. This I have changed and I explain everything to him so he doesnt get confused and he is a changed horse. I havent quite got his whole trust, but it has come a heck of a long way in such a short time. Now I can do anything in the paddock with him with out having to put a halter and lead on. He used to snort all the time and he hasnt done that for weeks now. Bill asked who he wanted for his leader, and he chose Clare (my bossette) who he absolutely loves . She fixes him up when he strains muscles and hurts himself. So Clare has been booked for his permanent leader at the shows. We havent tried this out yet as the shows are all over for him, but roll on next years shows.
STAR - Chestnut ex thoroughbred racehorse Bill did this one by remote, which I thought I'll give it a go, what do I have to lose. Star was in Pukekohe South of Auckland in the North Island and Bill was in Christchurch 1000kms away in the South Island of New Zealand. I was actually wandering how he did this, but when I went to email Bill for a time, I checked my inbox and had the results of Star. He picked all his sore spots to a "T", including an irritation in his lower left jaw in his mouth (strand of silage stuck in his teeth that I had to get out for him). I couldnt beleive it. I was standing next to Star with a copy of my email from Bill pushing all these sore spots he typed out for me and they where all there. He made me a total believer then and there. When Bill got to Star's diet, Bill said he was lacking in Potassium. This was the mind boggling thing for me, as when Star was racing he had to have standard bred racehorse salts (which are high in Potassium compared with the thoroughbred ones.) to keep his bloods right for racing. So even though he is spelling he is now getting the dose of Standard bred salts he had while racing, which has changed him back to being really laid back again instead of stressed. When Star was racing he was quite a maniac on the track. His owner was going to put him down when he retired until I stepped in. After looking after him for 6 years, getting him to come back to racing after 2 years and winning another race, after he bowed a tendon, there was no way I was going to let this happen. I get on really well with this horse and Im determined to prove to everyone he isnt nuts. Bill told me he'd like to do a bit of dressage to keep him in shape and concentrate on hunter jumping. Star has a really good jump, as he proved to me jumping the odd gate every so often, to go and see his girlfriend down the raceway. So within a year or as long as it takes me to get his body and feet right, Star and I will be making an entrance to the showhunter world.
IVY - Brown homebred mare my friend Aimee owns. Aimee had spent all morning telling Ivy not to embarrass her before Bill got there. The first thing Ivy said was Aimee was stingy with the food. Aimee doesnt feed Ivy everyday, I do. She had only given Ivy a snack to keep her occupied in the box for 2 hours until Bill came. The next thing Ivy said was Aimee needed lessons as she had no balance and wobbled all over Ivy's back. That just devestated Aimee, as it would. Hard enough when your instructor tells you, let alone your horse. Aimee did get forgive Ivy. I dont think Id like it if my horse told me that. This however I do blame mainly on her saddle which doesnt seem to fit Ivy anymore, as I found when I rode her, it just wouldnt keep still on her back. When I changed the saddle I was fine. Bill did say Ivy had a sore back probably due to the saddle. He also pointed out a sore hock which we new off, but hadnt said a word to Bill about. Bill asked Ivy why we cant repeat the same training day after day. Ivy said it was boring and she already new how to do it. Trust me I broke this mare in and she has got to be the fastest learner I know. She used to throw tantrums if I tried to repeat something I did the day before. She is only four years old, and first year under saddle and could just about do most medium level dressage moves. She thrives on a challenge. The harder it is the more she loves it. Bill said we just have to keep it challenging for her. She also kicks the heck out of the stables when we put her in them. Bill told us she once again gets bored and that we need to give her a mirror to stop her getting bored. Just what we need a vain horse. Bill Northern just said things that where too close for comfort, to not believe. He is an amazing man and I would recommend him to anyone. Ive spent hundreds of dollars on people trying to find my horses' problems and from now on, if I have a problem I cant resolve or horse physiotherapist, Clare McGowan cant fix, Im ringing Bill. And I havent even met the guy in person. He is the true "Doctor Doolittle". Next time I'll be here to meet this man in person. Im never going to miss another appointment. TRUST ME! THANKS BILL Your Friends for life. Kiri, Aimee, Nik, Blaze, Kahu, Star and Ivy. AWATEA FARMS PUKEKOHE South Auckalnd NEW ZEALAND PS. Please let me know when your back in the country as Ill have a few more for you and so do my friends that missed you this time. If its urgent, I'll email you.
Dear Bill Your help in making the new hotel I have created a much better place is acknowledged and appreciated. Since your work to enhance the positive energy elements of the site of the Hotel Off The Square in Christchurch New Zealand , the hotel has often been at full occupancy in the six weeks since your work on it. I tried to design this new HIP (Highly Individually Placed) establishment to be different from the usual formulaic /beige boxes of hotelling. I wanted to create a sense of New York comes to New Zealand and with a homely/club like feel. The comments recently have been describing the serene restful feel that is within the hotel. I think your dowsing skills are great and other people might like to seek your assistance in making their business a better place, as you have done for me. Your sensible, down to earth approach adds sincerity and helps work in an area that doesn't need science for it to have acceptance. I feel the result very much speaks for itself. Thanks for your assistance again and see you when you are next 'downunder'. The hotel website is at www.offthesquare.com Cheers Tim Nicholls
