  • A horrible ending for Queen👑Uniek... We have to say goodbye to Queen👑Uniek. I am so very happy that we have filly Belle from her ❤️

    @FriesianHorses
    Dear All, (I posted this on Friday, April 5, 2024)
    I (Yvonne) have bad news.
    On Thursday, April 4, 2024, at 2:00 PM, Queen👑Uniek became ill, she was visibly in pain. The vet came urgently and gave her painkillers. Unfortunately, this did not get better after an hour. Mathilde and I took Queen Uniek to the horse clinic in Wolvega where she was examined further.
    It didn't seem like she had much trouble there. She pretended nothing was wrong. That is typical for a Friesian horse. But an ultrasound was made of her belly. It showed that her stomach was much too big.
    She was admitted and would have to stay there at least one night.
    But in the evening her condition became worse and worse. The vet called me and indicated that she was really in a lot of pain. The stomach wall was probably torn. A stomach rupture / Gastric rupture. Something that unfortunately occurs more often in Friesian Horses and that is because there is higher inbreeding.
    I was advised to put her to sleep to prevent her from suffering further. I couldn't agree more. I don't want a horse to be in so much pain. So they put her to sleep around 10 p.m.
    This morning I went to Queen Uniek together with Gea and Rinske to say goodbye to her. I had her picked up by a company that cremates horses. In the Netherlands it is forbidden to bury a horse.
    Queen Uniek will be cremated tomorrow. I can pick up her ashes later.
    As I type this, we are less than 24 hours later, but I would like to share it with you first.
    I will make a video later. I still need some time for this.
    Furthermore, other videos are still planned. And I also want to show the Queen as much as possible. Like I always do...
    But I, Bauke, Rein & Teije will miss her so much!!! And certainly also Boss Rein, the Stal H and Stal G people and the UA-cam herd!!
    Because Queen Uniek meant a lot to everyone!! She was special and she still is!
    Thank you for everything Queen Uniek! I'm so happy that Belle is here... And I'm glad Queen Uniek was able to see her own foal with Coralle!
    We will never forget you Queen👑Uniek!!!
    Love Yvonne❤️
    Welcome to my Friesian Horses channel.
    My name is Yvonne. I create and post videos about my daily life with Friesian Horses. I will show you the true Friesian Horse and what they are like: day to day care, training, riding dressage and the very special birthing of foals. I explain the facts about breeding Friesian Horses and the steps I take to help better the breed.
    You will learn that Friesian Horses have a naturally high gait, whether or not they can jump, if they are good for beginners and what they eat.
    You will see them running, trotting, playing and even fighting.
    I show you every aspect of my life with horses; the beautiful and the not so pretty. What you see in my videos is real!
    Did you know that the Friesian Horse originates from Holland, specifically Friesland? That is where I live! I hope Friesian Horses will be love at first sight for you.

    It pained me to see Risey nickering/soft whinny to Uniek at the beginning and furthermore, she was looking intently at him. These two brought me to this channel, I stayed because of how well the horses were treated by Yvonne, Rein and Crew. Uniek was such a good mother, good leader, good friend, good sister and good horse in general. Her stoicism mirrors Yvonne, they are without a doubt soulmates to me. R.I.P Queen.

Then a tiny Rising Star came into her life and we all fell in love with the beautiful bond formed by the mom who had lost her foal and the baby who didn't have a mom. Queen Uniek you are very special and now you run free in horse heaven. I love you, beauty

    I started watching when Risey was adopted by Queen 👑Uniek. I fell in love with her because of her willingness to take a baby to her udder and her heart as if it were her own. I am in tears now because she is gone. But never forgotten. She is in heaven. Corralle is Belle's surrogate mother, in my heart never the true mother. But I thank her for having Uniek's baby. I want to hug you, Yvonne. I want to cry with you. I wish I could send money, but, I am an old woman, alone. I send you love and prayers that things will turn around and be good in the future. Starting with Princess Belle. ♥🙏

      ​@patriciagazey4693 yup. This is why mastiff breeder cross breed to other mastiff types from time to time. To bring in other blood types to vault out genetic issues. They need to cross with Barbs. That's what PRE and Arab breeders do to improve and keep out fenetic issues. I don't understand the importance of blue blood stuck up nonsense. It causes these issues over and over again. I'm sure the vets enjoy the research tho.

But Yvonne is strong and one day she will be able to smile when she thinks of Uniek instead of tearing up. Those are the stages we go through when we lose someone dear to us. I smile more now when I think of my parents, for instance, but sometimes I still cry. That is the way it is. Belle is such a blessing, as is Risey even with his issues. Circle of life.

No one should tell her how to feel, or how to look at things in the direct aftermath. She needed to speak her truth.

    Dear Yvonne, I am so sorry for your loss. Don't feel bad or weak for crying about Uniek. She was your heart horse, a true Queen and ambassador for the Friesian Horse breed. She brought joy and awe to you and thousands of people over the years! You did everything you could to make every minute of her life as great as possible for her.
    All of these words are not able to help in grieve, nevertheless she will live on in our memories, in the videos you made, in her foals, in Belle and Risey.

    I finally have strength enough to say how deeply sorry I am for your loss of the beautiful, majestic, Queen Uniek. I like many fell in love with her and your channel when she took in and adopted baby Rising Star. Uniek was such a sweet and special horse. I’m happy that you now have Belle. While she’s not her mother and can’t ever replace her, I know many people who have had a heart Horse and wanted to get at least one offspring from them. I pray for little Belle’s protection and health. At least mommy Uniek got to see her. And now she’s watching over her and Risey. I couldn’t type anything before because I kept crying, well I’m crying now too but not as bad! 😅😭 I came for Uniek and Rising Star but stayed because I enjoy your personality and your dedication to these horses Yvonne. I grew up loving horses but have never had the opportunity to work with them or be around them often but I was so obsessed buying all the books to learn about them and watching all of the videos I can. I will continue to pray for you and hope you find comfort in your family, friends, your pets and your horses, especially Uniek’s precious Rising Star and beautiful little Belle.❤🙏🏻😢

    But, Yvonne, your “bad luck” has also resulted in good things.
    You lost Star, but gained Risey. You fell and yet you survived to live and love your close family as well as your world-wide family. You were wise to create Uniek’s Belle via Coralle to carry on Uniek’s uniqueness. The glimpse of Belle that we’ve seen shows she has her mem’s conformation. She looks special already!
    All this and more, due to your wisdom and strength.

May her spirit guide Belle and Risey through their lives, and may you find peace and healing as time rolls by.

    I am so sorry about Uniek's passing. I too was here from the beginning when you bought her with all our donations. What an exciting time that was! Also you were just beginning to heal from your terrible accident! So it seemed as if you were getting a new start in so many ways, along with your precious little boys and husband! And you certainly took all your fans along for more of your healing, all the fabulous mares with new babies, and life on a horse farm in the Netherlands! It was a wonderful time! Thank you so much for everything! Now we have all the absolutely wonderful memories of Uneik, Rising Star, Saly, and the multitude of others I can't spell their names! You and your family will go on now to form more beautiful memories of your boys growing up, and of all the new horses that will come to live with you! Yes there is sadness that always comes with the passing of the older things, but there is now tremendous hope for the future where you will teach your sons all about horses and the adventures to come! I wish you the very best life has to offer!!

You know what? I see Uniek in Belle. Belle has Uniek's big beautiful eyes. I always could identify Uniek by her beautiful eyes! I think Belle is our next Queen when she becomes an adult. Risey will also always be Uniek's little Prince for however long he lives on earth. He really has a great determination, which he must have learned from Uniek. He really was her little boy even if not biological and after he was weaned, he seems to continue that Uniek royal essence. I will enjoy seeing Risey and Belle continue their beautiful lives! ❤❤❤

When Uniek lost her foal, there was a miracle foal that she loved as her own. You had an accident & fell into a coma but you woke up! You recovered more than anyone expected. You run your own stables & people care deeply about your life. Though Rising Star has a concerning diagnosis, he is beautiful & strong now. Uniek’s foal transfer worked perfectly & you received a beautiful princess before the Queen left. There are so many blessings for you! I am so sorry for your loss. 💔 I hope you can take some comfort from the 2 beautiful babies she left in your care. One boy, the child of her heart & one girl, the child of her blood. I know Uniek was loved & cared for from the day you met to the day she left. I hope this is the last heartbreak for you for years to come 🫂

We all I imagine will mourn the loss of Uniek for a while, then we can move on to remembering the joy she brought to all of us. I am so glad she was able to be there when her foal was born. I am sure if anyone can know that her foal will be loved as she would have it is Uniek. She took an orphan to herself and loved him as his own mother would have, and Risey is a sweet boy who benefitted from Unieks care when he was in need. To me Uniek will always be the "Queen" of the herd. You did right by Uniek and I am sure she is now happy and grazing in a beautiful sunny field. Much love to you and all at Stal H and Stal G.

Loss is never easy; it is like a piece of your heart is torn off, but it is this piece that went with her over the Rainbow Bridge. Mahalo for sharing Queen Uniek with the World; she has brought joy, beauty, majesty, and resilience to all of us. Aloha Oe, Queen Uniek.

    Yvonne, it breaks my heart to learn that Queen Uniek is no longer with us. It was a beautiful video, albeit very sad. It is comforting that Belle is here to carry on her legacy. Blessings and hugs to you big kisses for Belle and Riley. The stable was so quiet so you know that they all knew that something was wrong and that their Queen was gone. Extremely touching. Prayers

It was the darkest day of my life and you lifted me up. Each day I looked forward to seeing you. Thank you for that. Thank you, Yvonne for being the amazing woman you are. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You both saved me. I'm still here because of you and our Queen. Bella is so beautiful and I see hope and strength in her eyes.

Queen Uniek's joy at seeing Risey has never ceased to inspire me, as has Yvonne's resilience. We press on, honouring those who touch our lives along the way. Love to all horse lovers everywhere and especially to those of us who aren't physically and/or emotionally well enough to go out there and ride❤.

    I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Queen Uniek.
    I first watched when she lost her foal & then adopted Rising Star.
    I'm sure nobody expected this to happen so suddenly.
    In humans (and I realize it's not the same) intestinal problems and blockage kills quickly.
    Because humans can communicate the beginning of illness, it is possible to intervene earlier. Still, it's hard to accept when a fatal process happens quickly.
    I am so sorry and offer my condolences.❤️

You have beautiful baby belle, not bad luck at all. Risey is a beautiful young horse, not bad luck at all. You have lovely beautiful horses and more to come. You have many supporters, followers, lovers of your horses. The very best is still ahead! Remember we all pray for you, cheer for you, love that you don't give up, you have come so far. 🐴🐴👑👑💞💞

    Yvonne, I cried along with you. How many times I stood at where my Nikita slept. I kept her bed where it was till I was ready to move and put it up. In my hallway there is a memorial of her. I made a shadow box with some of her things in it. My girlfriend made a picture for me to keep beside her cremains and shadowbox. Grief has no timeline, Nikita has been gone since May 2005 and I still cry. Queen Uniek will be forever with you because of Belle and Risey. I was pleased to see you smile because I smiled when you said you had Uniek in the back of your vehicle. You will have smiles and tears as you remember her in your private moments. Funny about the rain, because the day my dad was to be buried it was raining terribly and as the time came to go to the cemetery the Heavens cleared and the sun came out and it was beautiful..ty for this memory of my daddy. Never forget you have a human herd thats here for you and there is nothing we will not hesitate to do for you..please ask, as there is never anything wrong with asking. Thank you for TikToc, Instagram, UA-cam. We love you and the others at Stal H. I love forward to seeing Belle, aka little Uniek grow and become who she is meant to be. Continued prayers as always for you physically and emotionally..Prayers for our Prince, Rising Star and boss Rein and Glendy.

I am so very sorry things happened this way but I am also happy that Queen Uniek saw her beautiful filly, Belle. Tonight I will watch my favourite video where Uniek meets and falls in love with Risey at first sight - and sound. Then I'll raise a glass to the unforgettable Queen Uniek and think of her reunited with her precious little Star. Thank you Yvonne for sharing your videos; they and your incredible strength in the face of so much adversity helps all the herd followers to come to terms with the loss of our sweet Queen Uniek.

I’m praying everyday for Rising Star. If she fails then he will join Uniek in heaven to rub the grassy fields forever. God Bless you and your family.

    Then for you to have to go through your accident & recovery, then Rising Star's health issues it had to seem like so much was going wrong. But Uniek was always there to love being with you and help to make you happy.
    You definitely made the right decision for her. No animal deserves to be in pain that can't be controlled or cured. RIP Queen Uniek 💔
