what saddens me is that people seem to be more negative to rescuers rather than the people who didn't treat the animal well.
Amen
Spot on🕊️
I agree....32 saved...14 given the last act of kindness....glad the vet was there and they didnt have to go back to rescue all that ways to be euthanized
.....
Many of those poor horses were in such had shape. Cartered all over the Country. A complete horror. Immagine them having to otherwise, try and live through the long trip to Mexico in that state! Who knows if they even get anything to drink. Treated like a piece of s... only to be brutaly butcherd at the end of all that misery, pain and agony!
I think many people are too quick to judge qualified diagnosen. I would say its a dam hard job mentally, having to see these atrocities and know many are condemed to the last act of kindness because people just dont care how they have been starved, malltreated, who knows what whey have been condemed to or why!
These animals are worth more than that - God bless all the rescueres and the valuable work they have to take over from irresponsible stingy pennypinchers! Discusting!!!
Huge aknowledgement and blessings to all the wonderful rescuers, that put all of these poor creatures first 🙏💕
@@lyndakowalke8858 beautifully stated, THANK YOU..
you did bring up one thing that may not be considered by the pipeliners. Whoever eats the terrorized animals, eats all the pain and heartache, is a part of the animal, and it becomes a part of the 'diners'. It is truly angelic that the process is stopped, the rescued animals whether adopted out, or lovingly put down, have been saved from a horror beyond words. Thank Live for Horse Plus and all involved.
So you rescued 32 and had to give about 13 the last act of kindness. Think of all the last days of horror you spared those thirteen from experiencing!
more then that.they had to give 11 that right at the auction site!so that 11 plus the 13 you seen
@@charlevoix2 per Horse Plus it was 10 at the Auction House unless there was one they euthanized after the initial intake which according to them didn't happen.
@@GotAnUmbrella I think it was 14 overall, the numbers don't add up otherwise.
@@elisabetta611 it's at least 14. 10 at auction intake, 3 at shelter intake day 1, and the pony makes 14.
RIGHT ON!
It's shameful to allow horses to get in this dire condition to the point they can't even walk. They deserve mercy and peace.
In my country it would be a crime.
i live in missouri and i’ve seen so many of the horses that amish use being used when they are barely 2 or 3 which is really sad… i have nothing against amish but i think the shouldn’t use their horses when they are barely 2 or 3. it’s hard on their body definitely their legs….
@@kaitlynbrown1850 Sadly no one ever calls out the Amish for their abuse the cause these large draft horses.
@@forrestfey in the UK thus wouldn't happen
@@forrestfey It absolutely SHOULD be a crime in the US as well!!
Wow this auction is really horrific. I'm not even there and almost in tears. We need more people to see this so we can stop it
The fear the horses being loaded into the semi truck showed was heartbreaking. They seem to understand it's a doomed situation.
The stark difference between them and the rescued horses loading willingly and without fear is amazing.
I noticed that too, poor babies💔
😢
They smell death coming.
Horses are intelligent creatures. They can tell when they are being rescued and cared for. They also know if they are going to be abused. From videos I have seen of killer buyers they are not gentle with horses they don't speak softly to them. So the horses know these humans are not nice people.
I understand the horses pain
That was a lot of horses that got put down. What a crying shame...why can't people take better care of their animals? Regular vet visits, and kind and good care, would have prevented a lot of this tragedy. Adding this in edit - I forgot to say thank you to the team at Horse Plus Humane! I know they are all trying to do what is best for the horses. Even though it is sad and hard.
Exactly and the other question is, why can't horse owners put their animals down when their quality of life is nonexistent? It's selfish and greedy to make money off such horrible suffering.
bc people like that don’t like wasting money on something that doesn’t have good quality of life and have them humanity euthanized so they send them to auction instead so they can make money off of a horse they think isn’t worth the money to euthanize. which is cruel. ever animal deserves love and care and to be treated right not sent to auction when they have a problem or a life ending injury or illness. they deserve be humanly euthanized and not put to auction to suffer more than they have already suffered.
@@cherylmillard2067 Sadly some states make euthanizing a Horse cost more than they are financially able to spend. Many, many Years ago My Husband and I went to a local Auction in Belleville Michigan. They had a lovely Paint Gelding there which took a fancy to my Husband, and since we were there in hopes of finding a pleasure horse for him, we decided to bid on him and a whole. $50 later we welcomed him in our family. We live in the city, so we had to get the OK from the farm we boarded my Show pinto at, and they set up a quarantine stall and we loaded him in with no issues at all. Mind you he was lame on his hind leg but not so bad that we thought any major issue. On arrival the Vet was waiting and except for his lame hind leg he was in good health and only 7 years old by his teeth. After he was through quarantine his lameness was looked at with more thorough examination. It turned out he had three fractures in his hip and had been given a nerve blocker and would never be sound for riding. We tried for 10 months to find someone to take him as a pasture pet but no luck. He fell in the pasture turnout and did major damage to his good hip. He was in pain yet still gave us kisses. The cost to euthanize him was almost $7,000. A cost me and my Husband simply could not do. The Farm owner offered to take him back to the original seller and that was our only option for him. What happened to him after returned I hate to think about, and it still haunts me at times when viewing HPHS videos. Was I a bad owner because I didn't have the funds to put him down? there was no place that would help us and no Vet willing to cut us a break on cost. In Michigan you have to have a proper Burial site for the euthanized Animal, it has to be 7 feet deep which required hiring a Backhoe driver to dig the hole. The burial site had to be at minimum 200 feet from any dwelling or occupied building. That would have added and additional $2,000 to the cost of the Euthanasia. What is needed is more places for lower income owners to take their Horse to at a more affordable cost.
If you can't afford proper care for animal find them a better home.
It’s not that easy people I’m a rancher if it wasn’t for my husbands help I would have had a big problem these past few years with the prices going up and it’s not that easy to just give them away nobody wants to take a horse that needs help there are extremely expensive to care for thank God mine are in fabulous shape but One of mine is just getting over pneumonia it cost $8000 for one week at the vet what was I supposed to do give away a horse with pneumonia and blood running down his nose away to somebody because they feel sorry for him nobody wants to take that and trust me the vet did not let me carry a balance I had to give them 2000 then another 2000 then another 2000 because they can’t afford to keep working unless they get paid it’s not as easy as just throwing them some hay or putting them out in a pretty field Some of these horses are very very sick they’re not all my little pony
I believe this was the hardest and emotional rescue I have watched. Bless you guys for caring.
It was a rough one.
I don't think I've ever been so distraught watching an episode, maybe it's just the state of the world rn but it broke my heart to see the poor ponies in such pain 💔
I don't even watch every episode
I agree it made me cry. I can't believe people can be this cruel and just send them to a slaughterhouse to be killed horrifically and to let them go and just not treat them when they're hurt or have issues and just let them fail. How can people do that?
I could never do rescue because I would be in jail every day for beating someone's a$$. Thank you to each and everyone of you for helping these sweet babies.
It's heartbreaking that so many had to be given the last act of kindness, but at least they're free from pain and suffering now.
Please be kind with your comments , these folks make a big difference for these beautiful animals God bless you all 😇🙏🏻❤️
It's a beautiful thing you do. My question is why are the owners of these horses not held responsible for the conditions of these animals. Their actions are criminal. Thank God for all the help you do and give 🙏.
Owners and auctions aren’t held accountable because “frankly no one in power gives a damn. And the few who do can’t take on the huge money people running the slaughter trucks and auctions!” Slaughter is huge huge business even to some of the kill buyers run scams in rescue groups.” Hold horses in kill pens to fatten them up while on UA-cam and other sites raising money from people to “save these horses”! This rescue group is great. Honest and at least do the right thing for so many dumped in horrific condition. And rehome so many of the others. Thank you Horse Plus. Rescue is extremely hard work and emotionally takes a huge toll. But y’all keep doing the hard work and those of us in UA-cam and Facebook land will keep supporting you!!! Blessings always
Sadly the majority were owned by Amish.Say no more.
Because sadly it's under the livestock laws which basically allow you to treat an animal however you'd like. The most the USDA ever does is fine people if they can even get to them because previously there were only a couple for the whole United States. Livestock are allowed to basically be treated like crap because they're allowed to be used to be eaten. You can pretty much do whatever you want with livestock so sadly
@@joanbryant4601You basically went on a rant and didn't answer at all. The reason is because the law does not cover livestock abuse at all they're not covered under a pet law generally So the laws for livestock are very lax.
@@karensayer3089I think that's pretty crappy to say because plenty of normal people put their animals here meaning people that aren't Amish. People have a bad habit of doing this throughout the United States
So grateful for the doctor being there, and that the auction site is working with you to give these hurt ones relief. I'm astounded by the terrible hurts these creatures have bourne, and glad you were there to help them. ❤️
❤ she is amazing
I don’t know how you do this year after year. I totally am in awe in each and every one of you.
Seeing these horses I'm always brought to tears. The most evil creatures on this earth are other humans. I can't imagine letting an animal get in these conditions. The toll you rescuers. I just want to say thank you all for having the heart and strength of character to help these majestic animals.
I was so glad when you announced the critical care barn was planned, and hoped it meant you'd get a Vet on staff, but having Dr Nancy actually go to the auction with you is above and beyond my dream for you guys. Stream-lining care for these needy horses is awesome! Your organization is the best! Thank you, and may God continue to bless you with wonderful management and donations. Just awesome!
And when we hear the word ‘rescue’ it doesn’t mean bring a pony/horse back to the shelter and it’s good to go. It literally means it is rescued from a horrible road trip to a SLAUGHTER yard. From multiple auctions and trailer trips. From years of neglect by their owners. Before you criticize any of these people…go watch the online videos of what happens when they actually get to their destination…besides the trip down in a semi trailer packed with frantic or lame, sick, blind, young, old, stallions, minis…and being stuffed with drugs to fatten them up…no food or water…it really is the last act of kindness. It’s showing some loving attention and compassion and easing their permanent pain and misery.
Why are the people that abuse their horse not arrested? Disgusting to treat such a beautiful animal so badly. The Horse Plus Society team are angels on earth 🙏
the brutes who abuse these wonderful animals should be punished ,,,,,I mean punished not just fined. they are criminals and deservr the maximum punishment. these people are not worth consideration . they are a waste of space
Laws.. or well lack their of. Like the auction they were banned from then bought horses for £500 a piece outside of, is in a country you can sell a horse in basically any condition. Dead, in foal, incredibly sick, etc.. you'd basically be wasting your time going to such auctions unless your aim is to take near dead animals unfortunately.
It's why if someone wants to get a horse they'd potentially be able to ride, drive, etc.. via an auction, you'd go to one that happens less frequently and local or national laws are better. Otherwise, sickness or death will be everywhere in the building.
Yes, why aren't the devils that abuse these horses put in jail??? Somebody had to see the decline of these innocent horses, call the athorities!!!
This episode was rough. You could tell the impact of having to let go so many horses had on everyone. Sending my love.
That was I think the hardest auction video I have watched so far, there were a lot of tears and I have been binge watching your videos all the way from across the pond in the UK. It is so so sad how any human being let such a precious animal get in that state and let them suffer.....Thank you for all that you do to help save these precious lives,, my heart goes out to you all x
Thank you for what you do for the horses.
As someone who has rescued 2 horses in my lifetime, I thank you for all that you do for those horses. My first rescue was when I was 12yrs old. A neighbor's riding horse had twins ( I know it's very rare). Mama would feed the one but the littler one she had no time for. The neighbor was going to shoot it until 12yr old girl threw raging fit on his back porch. I asked if he give me time to call home and get permission to care for that tiny one. Grandpa talked to him. If I could carry her home I could keep her. Her name was Sugar Baby and she was a handful but she was mine. She lived 11 years until some fool didn't bring her to the barn in thunder storm. She was terrified of thunder and lightning. Thank you again HPHS for all you do.
That rescuing is a beautiful story! It's amazing how a child can get so much strength when there's an animal in need. I'm sure Sugar Baby was quite heavy for you at the time, but with your kind heart she was as light as a feather. Not to mention all the care and time it took to raise her. It's sad her life was short, but it was definitely the greatest life she could live. Thank you for being such a sweet soul. May all the blessings come to you in abundance!
Yay Dr. Nancy!!!! What a superstar! So happy for Horse Plus and all the horses that can benefit from her care.
I couldn’t love this group of people I don’t even know. Thank you for doing the hard work and decisions that some folks can’t man up and do for these horses.
Thank you Dr Nancy for showing how hard it is for you to advocate the last act of kindness
Honey you and your team did a great job with the horse auction thank you for giving the last act of kindness to those 10 horses who really need it and that was wonderful of you. Thank you and keep up the great work.
So cruel to let an animal suffer like that. Thank you for everything you do ❤️
Tawnee,when you showed the horses being loaded on the slaughter truck and then showed the blind draft y'all got. I started crying.How can people use horses for work,but then show them no gratitude whatsoever? One day I will be there at your rescue and I wish to get a horse, mini/small horse, hopefully a dog and couple of cats. I'm saving up for that day and I know it's coming. Bless all of you dear people
The Amsh and communities like that view horses and other animals in the same way we view cars and tractors. If it stops working and is beyond repair we get rid of it and buy a new car or tractor. They don't do the emotional connection to animals. They simply see them differently. It's never my part to judge them for their religion and their views. It simply is what it is. I actually got a cart horse from them who was only twelve but had been ridden/carted around so much she became lame and had laminitis at only 12 yrs old. This is something i have dealt with before and she was a Morgan pony cross - still out in the field with sheep right now (no one believes us that she gets along with so many other farm animals). It was fall just before winter and I knew it would take at least 6 mo of controlled feeding to regrow healthy hooves that weren't problematic with a farrier I adored we had at that time and I wouldn't be putting much into training or riding her for the winter. It was a risky investment, but she is a great kids horse and like most ponies you simply need to watch her feed.
The Amish weren't going to put 6 mo+ of feed into an animal they got no use out of. She was $350. They considered her to basically be "broken" like a car whose wheels were deflated.
@@blackdandelion5549 They don't believe animals have souls,.
@@juliaforsyth8332 Yes, they have their own personal beliefs about animals. Many years ago they used to breed high quality animals, but now . . . not so much. They even used to breed some very high quality dogs because they actually worked these dogs and needed them to herd sheep and protect the home and livestock and now many use the Amish name but it's like a puppy mill. They figured out they could get money doing all of these things and for some it fed their greed and the quality of things went down the crapper. I second guess when I see "Amish made" because I would need to know the Amish man who built it or who raised the animal before I bought it. Did he do it with craftsmanship or did he do it for money to buy a bigger farm?
Don't forget that you don't just have to save for getting the animals but also for their lifetime care! I in meantime donate.
I do enjoy watching you bring the horses in. However, could you do an episode about what happens with them as they're being rehabbed? I think we would all like to see that. Thank you for all you do. Thank you for giving the ones you could not take with you the love, respect, and relief they deserved ❤️
I’m hearing an electric cattle prod being used to get those horses onto the slaughter truck. Thank goodness you got Yeti.
Those kill buyers are evil, just that small snippet of video broke my heart. You all are amazing, you are angels for these horses, I don’t know how you are all emotionally strong enough to see this horrific abuse and neglect day after day.
Are they, though? It's the people breeding unwanted horses and not caring for their horses, along with those who eat them, who create the market for them. Going to slaughter, while horrible, at least ends the suffering of those horses languishing in pain in stalls and pastures everywhere. Like Tawnee said, those horses were out there suffering long before they were brought to auction. I wish Horse Plus and other rescues could intervene for all of them, but it just isn't feasible.
They are. Do you think anyone with a conscious would CHOOSE that profession?
@@elizabethregister9145 Conscience is the word you wanted. On a scale of awfulness, I don't rank them any higher than the people who dump their old and injured animals at auction, not caring what happens to them.
Crying from start to finish I don't understand humans who can treat these beauties so badly.
Thank you so much for all you do you are calm when needed and that makes it easier for the horses ,♥️💖
Thank y’all for rescuing!
God that chestnut , so sad I don't think the blindness was a issue for her but I could see her body 🥺 but the way she had such a release well you where rubbing her head she was just licking away 😞😞 she was so happy in that moment 😢😢 run in green pastures with the others , safe and without pain , sweet heart 💜❤️
What a gift to have a veterinarian with you God bless her
Oh my goodness I felt awful for the horses with clubs foot and the legs that bends! I’m so glad you all are there to help these horses. A lot of love to you and the rest of rescuers! ❤ from Canada!
You all did such an amazing job! To see Dr. Nancy at the auction was amazing! This one really looked rough. To see these horses that would have needed help a long time ago is so hard! And I won’t start on the slaughter truck. I was live when you got the horse from the slaughter truck. What an incredibly lucky horse! To see this Belgians have to leave this world together after a hard working life… And when Dr. Nancy cried over the sweet mini mare I bawled right along with her. I am so grateful for all you do! If you wouldn’t be there they wouldn’t get the help and a chance. Or even the last act of kindness if necessary.
Dr. Nancy touched my heart. Seeing her unable to talk for seconds and than saying, what was unavoidable... I couldn´t hold my tears back anymore.
@@sandrakarls8466 It's a goog thing that it wasn't edited out of the video, this way people can see that Dr. Nancy is human too.
@@N_v_G Exactly! And it opened my eyes further how much everyone connected to rescue work is giving from themselves.
So sad that owners don't reach out before the horses get neglected . So happy you were able to help So many horses. Tawny your making me 😢!! It's heartbreaking.
It is such a shame what happens to horses, so much harm, only because they don't show pain and shout out loud at once! You are doing such a great job helping these horses!
THANK YOU for showing the trucker whipping those horses. The truth while he didn't know who was watching.. we were. Keep up the good work.
I would like to get my hands on hom and give him 20x what he did. He had a special place in H€££ for him.
Angels!!! You are all amazing and very much appreciated ❤❤
So hard to see the fear and pain the eyes of these poor animals. 💕
when at a fair I got to walk through a maze to a slaughter truck- metal floor, not in any way safe for equines, so I am in total agreement with the hard choice of kindness and relief for these precious animals. It takes courage to offer the right form of kindness... with tears in my eyes for these old, or injured ones.
That kind of thing is aGREAT idea. That should be done more.
Such a blessing that you are able to do The Las Act of tKindness so they don’t have to travel to the shelter. Thank you for rescuing and taking care of them.
I haven’t been fortunate enough to own a horse.. never had a property to keep horses.. so I’ve transferred that love to dogs and at 71 I’ve had to make that final decision for my beloved dogs, many times.. it’s so hard. And I know that would bankrupt myself to care for my animals.Your facility is so needed .. we need more across the country.
i love that you are able to help them cross over before they have to get in a truck again.
You and the team ALWAYS do what is right and I am huge fan. Thank you for doing the hard stuff, you are my heroes!
Thank you!
Thank God for Dr Nancy and the ability of the entire Horse Plus dynamite Staff. Thank you for sharing.🐴
💔OMG! Watching Dr. Nancy diagnose the sweet little mini and choke up with tears really got to me. I found myself crying… So very sad that these problems are for the most part could be completely preventable! People really suck! I am grateful to HPHS for the wonderful work that they do! Thank you!💔
Dr. Nancy is just wonderful!
Loving Dr Nancy!! I find it hard to understand people that criticise rescuers who are doing everything they can to do right by these animals, when the people that mistreated and neglected them are mysteriously forgotten. For all of those people who enjoy criticising others who are making an effort to improve the life of these animals, how about spending your energy either helping, or turning your hateful energy toward the people who actually deserve it!!
So many really sad and difficult cases this time around. Thank you all so much for being there for them and showing them love and compassion in their last moments. It's so incredibly heartbreaking that some people could just abandon an innocent animal in this way.
I will never understand the human capacity for cruelty and indifference…. I sometimes feel ashamed to be human.
Glad you have a great and straight up vet. I like her. She’s perfect for all this
Great auction rescue. Sad that so many were in such bad condition but glad you had your vet on board to humanely give them peace. Their owners are at fault. It is not easy to give the last act of kindness. Horse Plus is doing the right thing the right way!
My reply is the same as donna, sof cause it is the government that is the reall problem. They like all govenments --wait till things get right out of control, and then these beatiful animals pay the price of out right cruelty. We have the same thing happening in Australia. The people dont have a say in the matter. If the governments world wide, in the case of all wild animals, PUT THEIR HEARTS @consciounces into caring for land and animals We wouldnt have such cruelty going on right now. I think two legged animal deserve rge blame today. 👍
That was ROUGH! Another great job👍 Thanks so much!❤
God bless all of you people who are working so hard to help these horses. A lot of sadness in this video for me, I wish I could help, these beautiful horses deserve so much better😢
I really miss Dr Nancy she is one of the best that you've had their I really miss her and all her knowledge
Much respect to all of you for caring for these sweet horses that didn’t deserve to be in that auction. I will never understand why legislation to protect them from cruelty is not in place. Thanks for everything you do to help those that need it to cross the Rainbow Bridge and those that can be saved and found loving homes. You guys and gals are angels in disguise! 💕
Seeing these poor horses in such pain really hurts my heart. I can't understand how people can let them get so bad!! Those people have no soul!! Karma to them
I feel bad for all these horses. Such hard lives, and a horrible end if it wasn't for this rescue! I especially wish the little sweet black/white mini could have been saved. What a hard job to do. But a happy ending for many this time! You guys are beyond awesome!
Nice to see the new Doc smile and laugh. I imagine she will settle in soon. Lots of pressure on her. I do like her though.
Dr. Nancy is awesome 👌! What a great addition to the team. It's so touching to see how much she cares. You're all such beautiful people to reach out to these forsaken animals. Please don't take animals into your life if your not prepared to go the distance for them.
Thank you for all the care and kindness you give these horses 😢👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This was an awesome video. I feel so sorry for these horses that are mistreated. God Bless you and your employees for rescuing these beautiful animals.
SHAME on those who took those who needed euthanasia to the auction!
Shocking, sad, shameful. Thank you for being there.
I was in tears with the one Tawnee was giving the apple to…..😥😥thank you for being there for these poor babies…..telling them goodbye with love is the best thing to happen to them in a long time, you sent them off with love 💕 your amazing…..
I REALLY LIKE Dr. Nancy!
Thankyou for showing the intake of these badly affected horses and their outcome., this is what we have been waiting for
Plus once the others are checked after quarantine or during quarantine if they are bad we want to see what is happening with each horse
Let's face it you have every horse documented so it shouldn't take too much to update each horse
That way you are being open to your donaters, it is much better than hearing a list for the month of what you have helped all around the world, it is your organisation and the horses there that we are interested in
And that's where you need to be transparent
Nancy is so incredibly compassionate. ❤
I'm so glad Horse Plus exist. All these people doing a beautiful job in so many ways, from the people doing the tech work to those that go to the auction rescues
I'm so sorry 😞 that so many had to be given the last act of kindness right off the bat 🥺 but at least they are no longer in any pain 😢 God Bless you Dr. Nancy!! And congrats for literally getting a poor horse taken OFF the slaughter truck. Love you all and Blessings to everyone at HPHS ❤️🙌 JENNIFER
I've saved dogs from shelters that just needed help crossing over. Each one knew love and kindness before they left. thank you. and in a cold area of CT this morning it is 46 degrees. nuts.
The lil' mini pony broke my heart. 😭
It’s heartbreaking to see the horses that didn’t go with you but with the slaughter truck 😢
I was in tears at the auction were that pony who’s leg fell beneath it and it fell that made me cry.
I think it’s horrible how people can’t be responsible for their animal and give them the last act of kindness instead of bringing them to a stressful scary auction.
My favorite is the mini mare that had to have the last act of kindness she was so sweet.
I think it’s amazing how you guys do this for horses and I’ve watched you guys for about three years now. I love the work you do and it’s amazing what you do for horses!🐎
Nancys moment w that black and white pony made me cry❤ bless them
I admire y'all so much for the good that you do. I cry my eyes out every time I watch these videos.May God bless you all!
So out of 32 horses, how many were you actually left with after all the LAOK's?
Also, follow up videos would be nice. We see the horses go through intake and then rarely see them again. It would be nice to see their progress etc.
I would like that, too. Even just before and after photos of them when they get adopted would help.
I think an update on the horses in the monthly auction, maybe a week or two between videos would ge fantastic!
THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF YOU...... DR.NANCY. THANKS FOR BEING THERE FOR THESE BABIES!!❤
You guys are HEROES!!!!! Let no one dispute that! You gave mercy when no one else would. You saved those that would have otherwise been sent to the kill house. You did what you could to save as many as you can. I've always wanted a horse, but I couldn't, so I'm extremely glad people like you exist.
My heart is breaking seeing the condition of the horses this time around, you lost so many to the last act of kindness 😭😭😭…. How I wish there were other treatments that could be tried. As always you all have done a magnificent job and should be very proud of yourselves. ❤ 👏👏🇮🇪🇮🇪☘️☘️
God bless you all for helping so many horses…
Heartbreaking 💔 to see what devastating condition the horses are in and how they have had to suffer for so long.
The progress of your journey is amazing and deserved!! Thanks it’s an inspiration for us here in Ireland
I’m so sorry rescuers have to go through such hard decisions with life and death. Seems no matter what you do, you are criticized for doing it. ❤️💕❤️
THANK YOU ALL for doing what you do!! We are so grateful you are there to save as many as you can. I read an article when a was a kid in horse and rider magazine about the difference between horseman and horsey people. Ya'll are horseman and put the quality of life 1st even if it is the last act of kindness, they were truly rescued ❤

I love you were able to film so much more at the auction after purchases action !!!
Thank you all for what you do 🙏🏼🖤🙏🏼🖤🙏🏼
This is the first episode that has actually made me full on cry. HPHS is amazing and the work they do is so incredible. The men from that slaughter truck made me physically ill 😢
I sure like Dr. Nancy she’s really nice and seems very competent to be a vet in your facility
Gracias a Dios 🙏 por ayudar a los animalitos 😌
I have nothing but the greatest admiration and respect for these rescuers! I can't imagine the emotional toll it takes to know they can't save every horse but yet save so many. God bless each and everyone of these people and I pray that with continued support, they can continue to rescue so many more. 🙏❤️
How could someone let their horse get in such bad shape. I think the same should be done to them.
Thank you for saving them.
God bless those how are kind and generous to animals
How many horses are we gonna get?....."One more than we thought we could...and one less than we hoped."
I'm so sorry there were so many horses in such poor condition this go round. But how lucky for them that you were there to save them from going to slaughter. That Percheron was so incredibly lucky you were there at the right time. Tawnee and Dr. Nancy choking up says it all. My eyes are always full of tears watching the auction videos. Bless you all for helping these babies! ❤️❤️❤️
Maybe Horse plus can start a Horse plan they could put together to help the Community maintain the health and wellness of their Horses by offering Clinics from time to time so Horses don’t get into dire straits but are caught early on in their disease because Vets have priced everyone out of the Market
Sorry so many of the rescues were in such a state they needed the last act of kindness. The silver lining was the rescue off the slaughter truck of the blind percheron. So glad you guys were there for that lucky horse. Great to see you working out the new processes with Dr. Nancy.
