Oh dear Lord, that grey with the bad eyes just broke my heart ! How trusting he was as you guided him into the 'unknown'. Luckily for him it was a good future. Bless you all.

Watching the auction part was heart breaking. And I know it’s only a minuscule fraction to what you go through each time! The blind horse - I am so glad you got him/her! Pauly really deserves an award. A golden hoofed! Look at what happened to the stock 😮 So glad the Haflinger‘s hoof is looking better… Royal is gorgeous. Ah Merrimeck - he had a mind of its own! 😅
Watching the fear, confusion, and apathy of these beautiful souls. Breaks my heart. You're doing wonderful work.
Thank you so much!
Thats awful to see so many equines and knowing what a horrible end many are going to have. Those sad eyes, statved and so neglected hooves - I cant watch sometimes, it gets to me so badly.
You guys do such a valuable work. I wish I had money.
I am so shocked to see so many😢 in Germany we don't have auctions, only for the very expensive horses. The price of horses is so expensive to buy so people seem to be keeping their horses and looking after them more because they just can't afford to buy a new one. How can people buy horses and just send them off to auctions knowing they will most likely get sent to slaughter. It's so heartbreaking and never ending 😢
@@charlotterockel-kennedy8913 Americans do the same thing with all kinds of animals, dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, llamas, alpacas, ferrets, skunks, opposums, raccoons, snakes, reptiles, fish, wild cats, like cougars and lynx, lions and tigers, cheetahs, bears, chimpanzees, smaller monkeys, even a few elephants, every possible kind of animal. There are almost no regulations, and where they do exist, they're not enforced. This freedom from any and all regulations on anything is what they mean when they claim that they are the freest country on earth. But theirs is the most messed up country on earth! It's literally a hell hole, for animals and people. If they cared about any of the issues, not just animal welfare, they would make sure there are regulations, but they don't. Living in that hell hole turns them into horrible people, for the most part. A few are different, and Pony Tales are among them. Thank the gods for them!
That is the reason i strongly believe anyone who abuses any animal those people should be treated the same exact way they treated these wonderful babies. But people are too kind hearted to accept the truth and oh yeah give them a break, i say no! The only way people are going to learn is to actually experience what they are doing to the animal or see it for themselves
Pauly is just amazing.
That auction segment really drives it all home about how disgustingly over populated America is with horses, makes me so crying-mad..
Thanx for another good episode. Hope your stock can get fixed without too much trouble or expense.
Have a safe week, ladies! 💗🏆
Hey guys. I am so happy you guys save seventeen horses 🐎🐎🐎 And Marrmack is funny little mule. He definitely knows something fishy. All my 💕🥰❤️🤗💖😘 to all.
I just love these videos!!! I always learn something!!!! Thank you!!!! You guys work so hard for the animals!!! Blessings to you for what you do!!! 🙏💕
Merrimack is such a bunch of personality. If I Had the Funds and knowledge, I'd Love him.
Slippery as ice little Merrimack. So funny. What an imp
You guys are awesome, thanks for keeping your channel open to all horse lovers.
Very sad to see an auction like that. Breaks my heart, I pray for better people and conditions for all living things. Happy yall got to save some and thank you for never giving up! ❤
Seeing whoever was enjoying having his or her lips flap in the wind really made me smile! As did Merimack being a little bugger and jumping through the fence and earning himself more quarantine time 😂
Those poor horses at the auction just rips my heart out…ty for all y’all do from Texas!
Thank you!
Midge is such a good supervisor! 😂😂. Merrimack is something else! What a little scamp!!😂😂 I am so sorry you ran out of funds. I so wish I could buy all of those horses!❤❤. Bless you all for your work!
Pauly is such a compassionate, hard working farrier. These horses got lucky not once but twice.
My heart aches to hug you guys you do the best work to save one of the most noblist animals on earth who only want to make us happy 😊😁😅
I don't know why but seeing his little muzzle smelling the air made me cry. Great episode love exposure of what happens to horses, they are more than livestock!!
I just wanted you to know how much I love you guys, and when I win the lottery I will donate all I can to help you the best I can, love you always hugs and kisses, tell pauly I love him too he's 1 hard working guy, great personality!!!😊😊❤❤
I really liked the behind the scenes look at the auction and the transporting of your rescues..
Farrier work is such a backbreaking job. I truly appreciate the craft of helping these animals. I just found your channel and I love it. Thank you all for what you do.
I just love all the bird songs! In the barn and the feild, like in the feild from 40:00 onwards. It's so beautiful!
And the barn is so light and airy compared to most. So when the birds are singing in there your heart feels light!
What a wonderful place this is. I wish I could volunteer at a place like that. I know it's not all fun and games, not by a long shot. But it sure is meaningful.❣💜 💙
🐎 🐴 🐎
Mules are so unique I hope for a great home for this one
Those auctions are brutal, and I wasn’t there! Much respect for y’all!!
Sunny, a hippo with the head of a horse. I love her!
Thank you for sharing.🐴
I live horses so much, and i live you all for your dedication to saving and finding homes for as many as you do. Im 72 and my husband and I are not in a position to donate now. But if we could we would help. So i can at least subscribe and share. Blessings tobyou for your kind and caring hearts. ❤
Thank you!
Pauly are having a hard time at work. I do admire hes calm. He is the best. Bless you.
You don't realise how dangerous it is being a farrier 😮
what a wonderful team you guys are pauly is a legend cheers from australia
Thanks for running the auction soundtrack. Very revealing and very sad.
Just started watching, I’m mortified to see the abuse these magnificent creatures have to endure. You imagine the USA a horse tied up at the picket fence cared and loved, but obviously they are just a commodity to some. I wish I was a bit richer, the best I and I is give you a 👍
Thank you all for helping God's majestic babies.
All you girls deserve a big gold star award. farrier puts up with a lot . lucky to have him. I bet you wish you had dr. Nancy at your barn to anesthetize those horses who are misbehaving
Dr. Nancy does her job very well with HP! We love our vets here and wouldn't trade them for the world :)
@@PonyTalesRefuge I didn't mean to bash your Veterinarian team at all. Just when you are in need of help there was the time to wait for help. I think that Dr Jim is just like the doc I worked for 26 years and I hope that he heal quickly.
The auction footage brought me to tears. All I want is a horse in my life again, and I no longer have the means. To see so many in the state they're in, and going to the fate they're going to... God.
Oh. Dutch! As soon as I saw the lane and the gate, I recognized the horse who got "stuck" from a FB post that cracked me up. Merrimack is gonna be a pistol to train! 🙃😄
worked at a feral pony ranch in the 90's in hinckley minnesota.. hest way to catch a feral pony is 2 to 3 people on a lunge line, stretch it out about chest high... as he tries to cross it it catches his neck.. the people cross and move forward slowly and you end up with rope around his neck to either lead that way or halter next... hope that helps... other way i s a lasso around a 5 gallon bucket with feed if you can offer off a hay wagon even better but not necessary... as he reached for the feed he cannot see you because the bucket is so deep.. slip lasso over then you can lead or put on halter.. both of these method's worked well and less stress on both people and pony/horse
Pauly isn't so far out - Hippopotamus means 'Water Horse' 😁Merrimack is a real little stinker!
Ornery little white mule hey.😊
I just love how that horse with sticking his nose out of the trailer he she was like I’m free I’m free and I just loved that. I love watching y’all trying to get them on the trailer. You have to admit it’s a little funny they were determined you’ll save some beautiful horses and I just want you to know I can tell what an amazing job y’all do, showing love, patience and kindness to all these beautiful horses, no matter what state they might be in. I’m really enjoying the videos so down to earth not so much acting for the camera. I like them a lot people need to see what y’all go through on a daily basis with these horses and donkeys. Thank you so much for all y’all do I will look forward to the next video everyone take care.
Can you imagine what mr studman is gonna become with all the care you give cant wait
Love your rescue. Real life.
Great video of rescue work. Thank you. 😍👍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for watching!
Congratulations on your new incredible life change! My condolences on losing Lady A. I have and will continue to keep you both and your entire family in my prayers. It’s such a blessing that y’all share your journey with us. We enjoy being along for this incredible ride that y’all are on. Thank you for bringing positivity and love into our lives. Congrats on the new animal as well!! Maybe a bunny? That’s my guess 🐰 Prayers and Hugs!
I just love watching y'all! I love your personalities and accents😊 thank you for saving the horses and helping them all that you do. God bless y'all ❤🙏
Thanks
Thank you!
Merrimack really said "Ha! Another 30 days of freedom!"😂 what a stinker
Haha!!
Another wonderful video, guys. I'm so sorry about your stock. At least it looked like only wood needs replaced? I hope you figure out how to strengthen it somehow. Merrimack sure is a handful!
Don't feel bad I had to remove the nut on the ball to unhook my 26 ft. trailer
As a UK viewer I was shocked at the obvious and atrocious lack of treatment to which some of these equines had been subjected.
Here in the UK such treatment would amount to a legal charge of ‘animal cruelty’ and attract either prison sentences / stiff fines / or banes on keeping animals - or any combination of such punishment.
This prompts some question, ie: - 1) what, if any, federal laws are there covering animal welfare in the USA?
2) How well are these enforced?
3) Is there a movement/s to advocate for animal welfare, especially equines, in the USA?
Your films are really quite eye opening to the widespread extent of equine abuse and also the extent of care which you guys provide.
I’m especially impressed by Pauli’s & the vets skills too.
May I wish you a Happy New Year and all the very best for your endeavours to ease at least some equines suffering in 2024.
Cheers,
Hal🍻
He is beautiful!
Awesome ladies👍❤😎💪💪💪💪💪😉🐎
😢😢😢 extremely, all them horses
Cindy you better be careful if they catch you filming in there you’re gonna throw your butt out you go for a girl show but it’s really like don’t feel bad Cindy because there’s so many for horses you can only do which you can do and you guys do a wonderful job. What would we do without people like you? What horses do the ones you saved today?
Maybe the horse (sunny?) you cannot lift the hind legs has something going on with her udder? It looks swollen to me and might hurt when Pauly lift her Hooves to the back.
Is that a mini mule or donkey? Either way it is a cutie who will eventually get adopted by an owner who has love to give and spoil them rotten
Those poor horses. Look so scared and pitiful. How can people let them get a shape like that. I wish i could help them.
That little white mule is but head stabing
Pauly is getting quite the workout.😊❤
How many horses did you rescue ?
You guys do an amazing job !!!
14! Thank you!
Sorry the computer changed my spelling.
Oh man those poor feet! What a crying shame!
❤❤❤
You couldn’t pay me enough money to be a Ferrier. This is crazy and scary.
31:00 im sorry but why didnt he let go 😂. Hes a great farrier and just in general a great man.
Of course theres amish people at the auction!! This is absolutely ridiculous, i prey that most horses in this auction were sold to caring people and not the amish or other horrible beings
Have you tried using the molasses licks to reward the horse for stand for the ferries.
Farriers should get hazard pay for rowdy draft horses.
So basically, go to the auction late, to save those that aren't sold quick.. 😢 When there are fewer buyers, and therefore lower prices, and hopefully you can save more for less. ❤
What about the ones that go through for little all during the sale? It's not just those at the end that go super cheap.
Does anyone hear that really loud bird w the high pitched whistle? What is it??!
I’ve seen horses getting shoes and trims for about 60 yrs…yes, Pauly is a nice guy…sure…but he’s what my farrier a drama Queen..his approach is downright funny…I hope he never loses his sense of humor….
Have seen Amish made stocks. They were made from oak. Maybe a bit stouter material to make the stocks?
It is made of oak. Tazio is a very large horse and there's only so much that wood can hold up to. It will be fixed and usable again.
This guy on something
😊🧡💜🧡
Put a dog collar on the back leg and a rubber car tube on her neck and you use a cotton rope you tie on the dog collar then you put it through the rubber car tube you tie it on the car tube and you tie it up with her just being able to put her toe resting on the ground and you let her fight against her self as they can not hurt them self’s I had to do that to two of my horses as they had broken my foot after I had pins put in my right foot and the farrier was the one who showed me how to tie them up with out them hurting them self’s
I think you need a steel stock.
I love your intro!
Waiting until most buyers are gone would make purchase of horses cheaper. Not overall cost but initially
If it could only work like that. We bid on any horse below slaughter and they come through at all times during the auction. Even in the consigned ring. They may get cheaper at the end, but what about the ones before them? We can't say no to them just because they don't go quite as cheap. :-/
@@PonyTalesRefuge I understand. Damned if you do, damned if ya dont. Hate catch 22
Is this auction run by the Amish? I see quite a few in the ring while bidding is going on. That sect never fails to surprise me. Out in Oklahoma they farm with tractors and go the “English “ they call us and cut and bale the hay field for a price per field.
Not necessarily run by the Amish, but most of the auctions around here are frequented by the Amish as both buyers and sellers.
your amazon wish list isn't up to date.. it leads me to my own list
❤😢😂
Are the Amish completely unregulated?
Do you not go onto your donors days before the auction? So you don't have to scramble for money on the day?
They always are asking ahead of time for donations. They continue to fund raise to save as many as they can up to the last minute!
We fundraise ahead of time always! :)
O O careful Pauline’s man ber ies.
I think that one is Dutch. He sure is pretty need some weight but really pretty color.
Any chance you doing a fund raiser to purchase a sweatshirt?
I’d like to know if these people that bring these animals to the auction like this are not ashamed of themselves they don’t care what other people think of them how badly they treat the sources and tell poorly they take care of them I would be embarrassed to bring my horses to a public place like this and have people see what kind of a jerk I am just respect these beautiful animals like this I bet you they have plenty of Bruschi instead of getting theirs, your horses taken care of it today Dave belly up on the bar enough
When the "loose" or "end of halter" horses are dumped, there are likely people who feel bad, which is why they leave them with no history. However, they obviously don't care enough as they are easily replaceable with a dollar bill.
I’m having trouble donating I’m in England 🏴 do you accept Apple Pay ?
Through the lens of a camera, it is hard to show the strength of a horse. Tazio ripping the stock apart definitely showed the danger a horse can cause. It scared me and I am on this side of the channel.
I really cannot imagine the straps over their torso and legs straps…..you’re working on prey animals and they’re seriously troubled horses that you have ZERO idea of what their backgrounds are. Dangerous as can be and that’s for all involved. I’m sure you have received as many horses with myriads of issues. Some are going to fight it, some are resigned to any stimuli, some are just docile and or/too weak to fight. While I applaud the overall rescue and your facilities look quite nice, I can’t help but think of the needless situations you’re all getting into.
Who are all these people who treat their horses like this? I don't understand... It's so many? Is it cultural? I mean, you wouldn't want people to see your horse if you had mistreated it like that... Why isn't animal control there? You're doing a great job; it must be absolute heartbreaking to be at these auctions. Horses and their kind eyes looking at you, I would want to take them all.
Lastly - real question, don't shoot me - but I see a lot of Amish there. Is this a way for them to find horses for cheap? Or do their horses end up at the auctions, looking like that... The latter was sort of indicated in another video (so don't shoot the messenger; you have to tip toe and dance around things today, don't you, lest someone get _offended._ (Even if that something is true.) If so, is it _Christan_ to treat your animals like that? I'd like to know.
Hmmm, maybe you shouldn't have said the words 'Castrations" in front of Jack and the other males...
I watch and love HPHS, and ever since you guys won the sponsorship, Ive been trying really hard to connect with y'all. Love your mission, but dont like seeing you in the parking lot, saying your out of money, yet showing all of us all the horses at the auction that are going for $100 bucks.... basically telling us that THEY are all going to slaughter! I totally understand running out of funds, but I don't know why you insist on showing us all the horses that are going to die a horrific death! Skip showing us anymore after you've run out of donations! I dont want to look into the eyes of a horse that I know is going to die! Just my 2 cents. Blessings to all 🙌 Jennifer......P.S. I really do love what your trying to do, but cant subscribe until you change that part. Sorry 😔
So you would rather remain ignorant about how it ends for the remaining horses. Honesty is not always pretty but it is reality.
@@radgalut How dare you call me ignorant!! I bred, raised, broke, and showed registered quarter/paints for over 20+years of my life!! I KNOW what happens to the unwanted, but it doesn't mean I have to watch it! All I said, was when they RUN OUT OF DONATIONS.....STOP showing the remainder of the horses! It makes a lot of people feel bad 😞 like they have to reach into their pockets for a little more! When your running a business ON DONATIONS, you shouldn't make people feel bad! That's ALL I was saying. Other rescues I DONATE TO, don't make me feel like that! You need to re-read the protocol on how to leave a comment, because that was extremely rude of you to speak to me in that manner! Hope you have a nice day, cause you've succeeded in ruining mine! All because I made a suggestion....WOW!! 😧😧
Jennifer
