Wow, it's fantastic to see my horses, Queen👑Uniek and Rising Star⭐ on the Dodo channel. 😍😍 The KZread subscribers of my Friesian Horses channel had bought Queen Uniek for me. We were all looking forward to the birth of her foal. It was so sad when we found out Star was stillborn. But a day later an orphaned foal arrived. Wow, what a beauty! It was love at first sight between the 2. The Subscribers of my channel were allowed to come up with a name for him. It became Rising Star JK. And after a few months I was able to buy Rising Star. He is now a few months old and doing very well!! This can all be seen in the videos on my channel. Thank you so much for all your lovely comments! ❤❤❤❤ Yvonne

Just an update for people, Yvonne has come home and been on recovery, her memory is still a little fuzzy and she can get tired, but she has been riding again and seems to be doing well.

What is even more miraculous is that they were supposed to find the afterbirth of Queen Uniek and smear it onto Rising Star to give it the scent illusion (uterus aura) that it is a baby conceived of her but instead they could not find it, so they took the risk of introducing Rising Star without an assurance; low and behold, Queen Uniek accepted him regardless. Now, that's truly one in a million miracle for horses.

I remember seeing this in one of the videos, them struggling in hope of finding the afterbirth and stressing when they could not! Uniek was so, so ready for Rising Star she barely flinched. I think they're only struggle was with initial nursing because she was painfully engorged but they got over that quickly enough. They're really a beautiful mom/son and a wonderful story. He's going to be a wonderful horse thanks to Uniek and Yvonne and the entire stable.

That happy dance was everything.

The dance Queen Uniek did when she saw Rising Star is so cute ♥️♥️ she’s very happy

Love Uniek and Risy! He's such a big boy now! Thank you, Yvonne, for sharing your wonderful horses with the world. Your videos help me relax and feel joy!

I have to admit I was amazed at how well this mare adapted to mothering a foal that wasn’t hers. To this day, he’s such a spirited little guy and neither mother nor son are ready to let go of that bond.

Blijft een geweldig moment om te zien, hoe gelukkig Uniek met dr lichtgekleurde baby is. En moet je RS nu zien, wat een pracht knul geworden! Goed gedaan Uniek (en Yvonne)!

Inderdaad. Uniek wou gewoon een Mem zijn. Het leek als ze dacht dat haar veulentje de volgende dag terug gebracht was naar haar met een ander kleurtje!

I've followed the whole story in one time with them! Risey was such a cute colt, now such a big boy and Uniek was/is such a great mother! ❤️❤️

Yvonne has had a bad accident while riding one of her beloved horses. Pray she recovers.

I've been following these people & their beautiful Freisian horses & was really heartbroken for Queen Uniek when she lost her foal. Thankfully, Rising Star needed a mom & Queen loved from him from the moment she laid eyes on him. She's been such a great mother to him. Yvonne bought Rising Star so Queen will always have her baby. Queen is expecting another foal so we hope it all goes well this time. Beautiful.

Uniek and Star's first meeting. Brings back memories. And tears to my eyes the second time.

U can tell they were both lonely but now there happy!

So beautiful to see this Friesian (one of my favorite breeds) mare accept this little orphan. When she started dancing it brought tears to my eyes. Loved this story.

I love their channel.

I follow The Friesian Horse channel and recognized this mother and foal right away! Such a wonderful story! Rising Star’s mother died and Uniek’s baby died, so this was a perfect match. ❤️

i almost forgot how tiny risy was. and look at him now. such a gorgeous big boy. and uniek is definately unique :-)

Hello Sumner how are you doing and how was your day

I am subscribed to her website and I saw this when first posted it. It is an amazing story of love and acceptance. Queen Uniek is a phenomenal Mare with an equally noble and regal disposition. She absolutely loves her owner and "her foal" Rising Star, who was recently weaned. She is also newly pregnant. This is a wonderful story, very worth sharing with others, so thank you!

Thank you, Giovanni..you covered it so well. One cannot help but be in awe of this Friesian Queen....Goedzo, Uniek!!🥇 ( means, " Well done" in her Nation's language..)

Followed this journey on the original channel. It's nice to know, that everything went well and a litte side fact, for everyone who didn't know: The orignal owner and breeder of Rising Star decided that he belongs with Yvonne and let him stay there.

Yvonne actually purchased Rising Star from the breeder. It was nice of Janet to sell him though, since it must have been hard for her to lose Risey's mother too.

How wonderful, he needed a mom and she needed a foal, what a beautiful match, glad she excepted him he's so happy and she's so proud beautiful

This mare is truly a Queen in her own right.

Seeing Mommy prancing in place brought tears to my eyes. They needed each other, magic happens.

You’re so passionate about animals. You’re so sweet indeed

This channel is great to watch, a place with no negativity or politics! It’s just comprised of beautiful stories of these Fresian horses. This breed of horses are so majestic, not only in their beautiful looks, but also in how they trot & cantor, and how they relate to their humans and other horses. The bond between Uniek & Rising Star has been wonderful to watch over the months since they were first introduced in this video. “Risey” has gotten so big and handsome over that time. Yvonne, the person responsible for their KZread channel (The Fresian’s) was able to buy him at the time he was to return to his original stable. We followers had been preparing ourselves for his departure and were very sad about it. We were pleading to find a way to keep him there at Stal G in the Netherlands. But Yvonne & the original owner took care of that too. Now Yvonne owns both Queen Uniek & Risey & they will be with her forever. FYI, although it looks like it, Yvonne is not the owner or manager of Stal G but in fact, is a dedicated volunteer with tons of expertise who dedicates most of her days to taking care of & training I these beautiful horses. There are other volunteers who also are extremely dedicated as well. They make up the family that is so devoted to these horses that we followers feel a part of. Sounds like I am making a marketing pitch for this channel, and maybe I am,😘 But in actuality, I live in the USA and am just an enthusiastic follower recommending it to anyone who enjoys stories like this.

The most wonderful channel to subscribe to. Following the herd from Central Florida.

I've never been close to a horse,but seeing this makes me happy.

I've been watching their story since the beginning, and I'd love to see it made into a movie. Queen Uniek and Rising Star have a way of connecting to your heart. Rising Star is getting so big now. I love watching him grow up among the Friesians.

Just cried my eyes out while watching this story a second time. I watched the video of Star’s unfortunate stillbirth, and followed Queen Uniek and Rising Star’s journey from the beginning to the present. I’m so happy for Yvonne and the Friesian Horses channel. I was waiting so long for their story to be shared on The Dodo. 🖤🖤🖤

Friesians are stunningly beautiful, she's truly majestic.

It always confuses me when people say they couldn't love a child that wasn't their own when even animals can do it, and with pleasure.

I followed this whole process, it was so heartwarming see how their bond grew and grew 🥺

Braaf! : )

A little update about Rising star; he is a beautiful horse and until summer of 2023 was doing well and still a stallion but he has developed a condition called wobbler which is a neurological disorder they think something happened to his spine in his neck maybe. He has trouble controlling his back legs. They are keeping him isolated at Yvonne’s stable, where his adoptive mother Uniek is, to allow him to rest without any rough play that would happen if he was with other horses. He seems happy. They recently gelded him as well. He has had at least one treatment with a specialist who does manipulation, pressure points, and acupuncture where he seemed to have some improvement. We are all praying for a miracle that he will be healed of this condition.

Beautiful. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Uniek and Rising Star.

Uniek is one special lady! She did a marvelous job raising Rising Star.

I remember this EPIC story from their original channel, went from deep heartbreak 💔 and sadness to JOY and Love 💕. Amazing to see that wound healed for both (as well as the caregiver’s).

I'll never forget their journey _ brilliant to watch! That prance Unique did on seeing rising for first time _ still makes me cry.

I discovered your site several weeks ago but did not know the story of a lost foal. The timing was perfect, it was meant to be, that a lost foal found a grieving mother and they became one. Awesome, I love your hard work and beautiful horses. Thank you for sharing! GA USA.

I love the Fresian Horses channel and the story of Unlek and Risy (Rising Star). Yvonne is great! Well worth checking out! (Edited for spelling)

This story was one that made 2021 so much better for me. I had never seen the channel before but the video of unike adopting RS popped into my suggest video feeds. I haven't looked back and have looked forward to my weekly and sometimes daily peak into stal G. For those of you who might not be familiar the foal is named Rising star or Risey for short. He started off as a foster with the intention that at some point after he was weaned he would go back to his stable. However he was officially purchased by Yvonne and while she has her own stable with two cute Shetlands and a Rottweiler he and Uniek are staying at Stal G (yes Yvonne owns Uniek following a crowd raising to keep her from being sold last year but she too stays at stal G)

I was not expecting to see the most beautiful pastor I’ve ever seen!!!! Beautiful green grass as far as the eye can see

Blessings to Queen Uniek and her Rising Star!! This was so touching and beautiful. Tickled my heart🙏💛🐴

Uniek and Rising Star. The perfect adoption combination. She has been a wonderful mother to that foal. Love doesn’t depend on blood.
