This horse has had ear plaque his entire life. After several vets have tried to treat it by burning it off, the owner gave up until Rex came along and had a simple solution. Rub baby oil on the fungus and it will kill it. Easier said than done because this horse would not let you touch his ears, let alone put cotton balls inside to rub the baby oil on. In fact he always has to have the bridle or halter taken apart to put on because of his panic around his ears from the painful fungus.
After an hour of patience and using the Sugar String, Rex was able to rub the cotton balls soaked in baby oil inside his ears. Treated every day for 5 days resulted in perfectly clean ears with new pink skin emerging. The hair is even starting to grow back after 10 days and still no sign of the fungus returning.
Sometimes the old methods are far less expensive and more effective than the newer solutions of drugs. You can see this horse is actually enjoying the treatment now, learning to allow his ears to be touched and rubbed without the panic.

Rex Peterson learned from the greatest horse trainer Hollywood has ever scene, Glenn Randall, Sr. the man who trained the Triggers for Roy Rogers, the horses for Ben-Hur, the last Rex for Gene Autry and many others. Rex knew he had to learn from this master of horses. Upon arrival at Glenn’s ranch with several rogue horses he was given a memorable lesson of mannering a horse quickly and efficiently. Glenn watched Rex rope the horse to catch them, disgusted, he quietly stepped over and began to whip break the horse in less than an hour, teaching each horse to obediently follow him around the arena. This was a life changing moment as Rex realized he must study with this Master. Many people came and went, but Rex stayed the longest. Glenn would sit in his swivel chair barking commands, not allowing any dialogue while training, but open to discuss any of his methods and techniques at the end of the day. To this day Rex claims he knows only a fraction of the knowledge Glenn possessed.
Currently Rex is developing a TV program for RFD-TV and is continues to work on films. Take advantage of the rare opportunity to train with Rex in a clinic at Windrock Farm, contact Cari to schedule a session. There has never been a horse Rex could not improve.
