And definitely not a neigh or a whinny. Yet those are common sounds in the hallways of Calais Hospital in northern France. Why? Because towering over the doctors and nurses in white coats and scrubs, you\u2019ll find the sweet chestnut-brown face of Peyo the horse, accompanied by his owner and handler, Hassen Bouchakour.<\/p>\n<p>Peyo, a Barb stallion, now 17 years old, didn\u2019t always work under fluorescent lights, surrounded by the smell of antiseptics and those incessant machine alarms. He had a remarkable career in the show ring, where he was accustomed to the roar of applause and the flash of photographers\u2019 bulbs. The competitions and exhibitions, known as dressage, require a symbiotic relationship between rider and horse as the horse performs a series of precise movements. After the shows, Peyo would, independently, approach certain people in the audience and remain by them. Over time, Hassen realized his show horse was not simply signaling that he <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/friends-and-family\/pets\/this-penguins-amazing-journey-proves-the-bond-between-humans-and-animals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wanted more human contact<\/a>. Peyo was pointedly seeking out people who were physically or mentally fragile.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-86350\" alt=\"Peyo and Hassen; photo by Jeremy Lempin\" height=\"288\" src=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/goingbeyond_embed1.jpg\" style=\"float:right\" width=\"306\" \/>In 2011, researchers at Les Sabots du Coeur (Hooves of the Heart) began a study to determine if Hassen\u2019s hunch was correct, and after four years, the team found that, indeed, Peyo\u2019s brain is wired differently from most horses. Not only can the horse detect illness, but also he has <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/the-growing-need-for-empathy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the empathy and drive to help those in need<\/a>. According to the Les Sabots du Coeur website, Peyo is the only horse out of the 500 they tested to be able to \u201cdetect cancer, tumors and support the end of life.\u201d Even Peyo\u2019s foals didn\u2019t inherit his gift.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt took me a while to accept it,\u201d Hassen told <em>The Guardian<\/em>. \u201cIt put an end to my successful career as a sportsman, and as a showman. It was very complicated to no longer be the master, and to be forced to admit that when [Peyo] detects someone [is sick], <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/the-power-of-putting-god-in-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I am no longer in control<\/a>. When he decides, I cannot hold him back; it\u2019s a need, it\u2019s visceral, it is in him, he needs to go and cling onto the specific person he has chosen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hassen is referring not only to Peyo\u2019s unique behavior from his days in the dressage arena, but also to what he has done since 2016, when he began making rounds in the palliative care unit of Calais Hospital. Peyo will indicate which patient they are to see next by approaching the door of the person\u2019s room and lifting up his leg. Once he\u2019s inside the room, he will connect with the patient, nuzzling and comforting them, letting them pet him. Sometimes he assumes a guarding stance to protect the infirm. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat really pushed scientists to take an interest in him and open the health establishment doors to us was this [seeming] ability to greatly reduce [the patients\u2019 dosage of] all hard drugs and thus allow <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/positive-living\/health-and-wellness\/life-advice\/managing-life-changes\/peace-is-the-presence-of-god\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a more peaceful departure<\/a>,\u201d Hassen told <em>The Guardian<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-86351\" alt=\"Family members let Peyo visit; photo by Jeremy Lempin\" height=\"288\" src=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/goingbeyond_embed2a.jpg\" style=\"float:left\" width=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/goingbeyond_embed2a.jpg 359w, https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/goingbeyond_embed2a-340x273.jpg 340w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 359px) 100vw, 359px\" \/>Doctor Peyo, as he has been nicknamed by the medical team, has to scrub in before tending to the sick. Hassen, adhering to the hospital\u2019s hygiene restrictions, spends about two hours preparing Peyo for each visit, using disinfectant wipes. As for bathroom time, Peyo knows to signal when he needs to go outside.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s a child or an elderly person, a patient or their family members, Peyo brings delight and peace. The staff also looks forward to his visit; his presence reduces the stress of a difficult job. Each month, Hassen and Peyo visit about 20 people who are at the end of their life. They\u2019ve supported well over 1,000 patients since the horse\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/inspiring-stories\/people-helping-people\/amazing-acts-of-compassion-during-the-covid-crisis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">journey of compassion<\/a> began.<\/p>\n<p>Hassen reflects in <em>The Guardian<\/em>, \u201cIt is a unique experience to look after a person who is facing death, to stay with them and tell them: \u2018Don\u2019t worry, you can go in peace, you won\u2019t be forgotten.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>To support the work of Peyo and Hassen, visit <u><a href=\"https:\/\/lessabotsducoeur.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lessabotsducoeur.org<\/a><\/u>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>For daily animal devotions, subscribe to\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/gpbookstore.org\/articles\/shop\/product\/all-gods-creatures-magazine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>All God&#8217;s Creatures<\/strong><\/a><em>\u00a0magazine.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You expect to hear beeps, buzzes, even shrieks from machines and monitors in a hospital, but not clip-clop, clip-clop.
