When you rescue a horse that people have dumped, there will be those animals that are beyond medical help. What I appreciate so much is that these horses have been spared the horror of a kill pen journey . At least they have known a kind hand, peaceful surroundings, green grass, a pail of grain and a painless passing. This is a blessing. Thank you for your dedication. Great team you have there. 🇨🇦❤️

Lois I totally agree in a kill pen they are scared weak and miss their home and dint understand. Yes granted they medically can’t be helped. But these were family members grant them a peaceful passing to greener pastors. Never agree ever with that horror and I feel so helpless. Maybe government change can be implemented. Please try to call your local MPs and take this to the top. Anything but this horror that hasn’t changed in many years!,,

It breaks my heart when a horse at the auction comes over for a pat. It shows they still have the belief that somebody is going to be kind to them.

Thanks again for protecting these beautiful creatures when no one else would

Every rescue auction has heartbreaks. This one was no exception. HPHS people are true heroes! 🤠

Humans have a lot of blood on their hands. God see's all and is taking notes. Thank you all for your hard work and saving so many.

But he sees the ones of us who care and he sees what we're doing and how much we try and he doesn't miss a single thing. God Is Watching but he doesn't miss anything that's the good news and... When I get blessed I know why because I'm helping people and horses together he'll 2. It's a beautiful thing to do no matter how hard it is it's worth it every single day and it's starting to get around the therapeutic programs are starting to get attention. Even even our Electric Cooperative has it on the front of their magazine this month how horses heal people and it's beautiful because they're finally getting the recognition that they need as majestic creatures that do a lot of good if you just let them and just listen to them and be gentle back. I got one of my horses it was being sold to a price of his meat. His name is frolicon home and his owner trainer was this guy named Dale who had him raised 63 times to the point where his lungs burst and he's got no voice but I'm happy to tell you that God intervened and told me don't ride him let him be let him be. And he's a happy horse now he doesn't even need to be ridden he doesn't have to perform none of them do they just have to be themselves. It's so funny now they'll even bring a stick while I'm riding a different horse just messing around bareback for no reason because I don't really ride much just for exercise for them stimulation it's funny cuz another horse will bring up a stick in his mouth just carrying a stick or a piece of log just as like a gift like can I be next it's hilarious

I'm starting a program called My Horse buddy Incorporated in Virginia and it's supposed to be just a buddy program but really what the truth is is Ben it's the most unassuming and I could find and think of that doesn't spell out exactly what it is that the horse buddy is going to be hearing. A lot of times it's abuse victims molestation victims and battered women and better children. That's why opportunity to get them help and teach them to the word know is beautiful. Having first-hand experience since I was a child abuse by a babysitter and boys in the neighborhood after that and then 26 years being abused by my husband I understand so much about it that sometimes we play a game and we see how loud we can say the word no! I tell these kids I love the word no because it saved my life it also protected me for my buddies who really care about me and they're bigger and their love is bigger and their heart is bigger for me and they have a better personality and a better view point of who I really am it's awesome to be there buddy and to protect myself for them. If they think I'm worth it then they're right because they're bigger and they win LOL. It's one way to tell the children and the people just in a fun way the horse is bigger he wins it's his word versus somebody else's!

Have sooo much respect for EVERYTHING you guys do, but special props to your trainer! She's so chill & calm about just hopping on all these nervous horses that she has absolutely NOOOO CLUE what kind of "under saddle history" they even might or might NOT have, and she readily works with & hops on them all pretty much equally... That's pretty amazing! She has such a great demeanor about her, she's awesome!

Sadly you have to make some tough decisions, but you are probably the only ones who have cared for these animals. I appreciate what you do.

I know right they're so responsible and well-trained. But my favourite out of those two would have to be the fact that they euthanize the horses that are suffering because a lot of people who rescue horses know that they're in pain but don't want to put them down because they feel like they can help because I mean like who wouldn't like you just bought a horse you love it to death you want to try and save it but sometimes euthanizing is the best option. I'm glad that they know when it's time and that they don't say we can save this horsewhen it's beyond saving like they know when its time.

Thank you all for all the good work that you do! Jesus bless you and all his sweet creatures that have been mistreated by wretched people!💕

What a tough day for you guys. I was crying throughout with so many euthanized. And the horse with the back problem probably will have to be as well. I'm glad you are able to see the euthanasia as a positive. Because it is. I accidentally once saw a video of horses at slaughter and it is terrifying for them. By giving them the peaceful time beforehand and the humane euthanasia, you truly are doing a great kindness. I've seen the other and I know. Good bless you❤️

I really love and appreciate these longer episodes. Thank you. This is all so incredible to witness. Incredible and DEEPLY heartbreaking. But what you do is just so important, and I can't thank you enough.

you guys do so much for these its beautiful

I am all for horses that get PTS if they are in pain. I have had many horses PTS over the years, mainly from arthritis and I never feel guilty as I know that I have done the best by the animal. I know I would rather feel the mental pain than them feel the physical pain any day. You guys do an amazing job and you should be so so proud of the work you do to help these animals, even if sometimes they cannot be saved .

Thank you for all that you do. I'd send a donation, but I'm unemployed (like half the nation) and don't even know how I'm going to pay my bills next month. Take care and be safe.

This is so sad and wonderful all at the same time. 😭♥️

seeing the horse at 3:56 and all of the wounds she has made me tear up. I do hope she is doing ok now and her wounds heal up.

Well done guys you are doing a fantastic job

I can imagine how hard it is to give that finial shot. I worked for a vet and one of my jobs was to hold the cat/dog and talk to them give them as much love I could in those last few minutes. I lasted 5 years and could not do it any longer.

I've watched several of your videos. It's beautiful work you do. Truly you are making a difference. I used to work on the race track many years ago. There truly is no glamorous side to that industry. This year I decided that I would adopt (it was a rescue make no mistake) an OTTB. This mare would either have gone on to a slaughter facility or to another abusive home. She has severe trailering issues and I wound up having to sedate and use a mustang shoot to load her to get her home. I knew when I saw her ad on CL that she was the one. I did her lineage and her family tree goes back to some of the most famous race horses in the world. It is sad that there is so much over breeding just to get that one stakes winner. I hope one day people begin to see the true horrors about the reality of horse racing. The ones who are no longer useful generally go to slaughter. Liberty is what I named her and she has landed with an experienced horse person who sees her value. Thank you for saving so many lives and for giving the ones who must cross the rainbow bridge dignity and knowing peace and love. There needs to be more people like you and your staff.

Thank you so much for what you are doing for these horses, donkeys and others. With regards to euthanasia, I just wanted to share a perspective from a person with chronic illness, because I'm sure it's so painful to be putting down these animals, and something other people can't understand or accept you doing. I have chronic illness. I've been in a lot of pain. I'm doing really well, very optimistic for the future, things are getting better (yay modern medicine!) but I know what it is like to have no quality of life. I know what it is to wonder about when you will or can die, and how. I know what it is to look at the suffering you have to go through before you can pass. It's really not fun. So if you can prevent suffering, and give a good death, a painless death, sometimes that really is the kindest thing you can do. It's horrible, and I wish every living being got to experience joy, but sometimes eliminating suffering is all that can be done.

Bless you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a hard day for you all, but the horses will put to sleep in a peaceful environment....

God Bless y’all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤠

I think your all amazing . Xxxx

Horrible how these horses were treated at that auction. Isn't there animal police or something to fine the owner doing this to the animals? They're skinny, sick, beated. There's no way that would be allowed here, especially at an auction. Also branding is forbidden here for around 15 years already. I'm so happy you save them though.

How often do you scan a horse with a microchip? Does the sale barn scan for microchips also? Have you ever found the owner for a chipped horse? Fabulous job you are all doing

So good that you put those animals to sleep that are in cronic pain and can not be saved, it is the only right thing to do and the original owners ought to have done their duty to. Strange you have to explain it so much, if you respect animals you will understand it..

22:03 when you're done with the whole bag of cheetos 😂

Oh the horse @ 28:25 He is beautiful! I hope all goes well for him.But then I have never seen an ugly horse..Just underweight old or sick...They all need our love and kindness. Even if that means ..The last act of kindness .I just don´t understand people who don´t care..

Wow awesome work! But how does it work to give oral meds when the pony is lying down and totally out of it? It can’t swallow or? Would it not risk going into the lungs?

If a human can't stand on their legs without pain, they have a lot of options to avoid having to do that. Even for a dog or cat, provided the pain's under reasonable control, lots of elderly arthritic pets have happy sunset years lying around a house being spoiled. But a horse *has* to spend the majority of its time standing. It's a myth that they can't lie down but they only lie down for short periods. So it might seem like a bad leg is a small thing to put a horse down over but sound legs are really important for a horse.
