Poor hero she was such a gentle giant and angel is so pretty
My heart is totally broken over the draft horse....
@@catzdollz9810 same!
@@catzdollz9810 oh my goodness, me too. Hero was special 😭
I love how she adopted this 30+ year old horse. You can see they are in love with each other 😍🥰🐴
Except she didn’t keep him
Happy adoption, Sarah! Glad he gets to spend his golden years with you.
I'm overjoyed for Sarah!! Elder equine have so much to offer their people.
Yes Sarah! Love watching you and all the staff love on these beautiful beings. Wish so much I could love on them with you. 💕
Like them
I believe she sold this horse through a horse buyer! She didn’t keep him
So sad about that three legged Belgian, I fell for her the first time she showed up but didn't have a good feeling. Glad you guys can make the right call when it needs to be done but still upset such a sweet horse ended up like that in the first place.
It was truly sad that she was put down, but thank God she didn't suffer the terror of ending her days at the slaughter house ... the silver lining to this deep, dark cloud.
I would give anything to own a Belgian, they cost a fortune here in Australia. I hate how these ex owners throw them away in a market instead of giving them that last act of kindness 😢 they are such gentle giants 😢
I’m sure Hero could have been saved if she had earlier care. That’s on her previous owners who used her up and then took the money from her sale. Shame on those with no souls.
So wrong that she was dumped in that condition. Horses have an amazing ability to heal if things are kept clean and monitored! This would have been treatable at the beginning & she could have gone on to find a loving home but the owners didn’t care. They cost a fortune here in Australia so I will never be able to afford a Belgian so it breaks my heart to see them treated like that by humans😢
So cute when Sarah said “ you wanna go home and be mine” he raised his ears. You can see the love.
Happy birthday Sarah. I saw on the live today was your birthday. 🎉🎂🎈 🥳 I hope you got a piece of the cake. 😆
I noticed that too!! So adorable ❤️
It really is true love! 😍
He loves you with all his heart and it shows with his ears! 😆 He is BEAUTIFUL 😍❤
Please
@@hallieroyea5786didn’t he end up going to a horses seller after she left HPHS?? I know she didn’t keep him
I have to commend the HSH for not going up one side and down the other over the 2 surrenders. But…at the same time, thank God they were surrendered. Their owners finally did the right thing.
I was thinking the same thing when I saw them come off the trailer and saw how skinny they were. BUT - at least they took them to a place where they knew they would be looked after instead of selling them at auction like so many other people do.
You could tell they were rather uneducated about the horses' conditions when they were talking about how good of a ride the one horse was.Those horses were in no state to be ridden. They certainly could have made a buck off them at the auction, especially with horse prices being so high. So I don't think their intentions were bad, just wish people would learn how to properly care for their own animals.
I am so sad and yet happy about Hero. I had hoped and prayed that she would fight off that massive infection. Sometimes, as nurturing humans, we go above and beyond for our fur babies but you have to know when it's time to say enough. You all did what you could for Hero. Thank you for that. Hero's last month or so on this earth was probably one of her happiest memories. She had love finally! She didn't need to fight for food or attention.
I know your organization goes above and beyond. When you have to put one of these babies down I am sure it takes the wind from everyone's sails.
Thank you for everything each and everyone of you do. You are the best.
R.I.P Hero, we all loved you very much.
You will be missed.
But I am sure that you are running happily in horse heaven as we speak.
You are such a fighter and role model for horses all around the world.
love you big girl, rest easy.
Sorry for your loss...
😭😭
😭😭😭 real life tears over this one. Such a heartbreaker
Thank you for pointing out the people who have not taken responsibility for taking the appropriate steps for these beautiful creatures
I am devastated to hear about Hero, I was making a space for her on my farm in Indiana, I just knew she would get better but, evidently not. Run with the angels sweet horse. God's peace to you all.
I just love how his ears went straight forward when you asked him if he wanted to go home with you. He’s so precious. Congratulations
Didn't have tie for them? More like didn't have food for them!
I was thinking the same thing. Poor horses... :~(
Not having food is one thing, but they obviously didn't spend anytime caring for them. The mane is completely knotted. Brushing hair is free! Poor horses were so skinny too. I'm just happy they surrendered them and didn't sell them!!
@@cstar44b91 Exactly. It is concerning however you are sooo right. In the end they did the right thing for the horses
Such a sad familiar story. Children beg to own an animal, then as life progresses the time they spend with their supposedly best friends wanes. Dogs get left outside, bigger animals just get forgotten. One missed meal becomes two, and then weeks go by. I kind of cringe when I watched the adoption by younger children.
Sorry about Hero. Glad she was with ya'll!
My dream someday later is to have a retirement barn for some senior horses with special needs or the really golden age ones . A barn with nicely bedded stalls . Grain and hay . Fresh bedding everyday in the shelter .
I never want these episodes to end, I love watching the love being poured in and showering each critter with the new found hope of love...you guys are amazing, each and every one of you...THANK YOU!!!
This sounds like what me tomcat went thru. Seriously, the vet and I made decision to put him down . I loved that little guy so much
Proud of the girl who surrendered. Must be heartbreaking and she did the right thing.
I cried about the big Belgian horse she seemed like the life had come back into her and the fact that there was nothing left to do for her leg was just devastating
I like the Farrier! He has such a kind face (:
I get shivers up and down my spine when Doc cleans their teeth
Thanks for giving Hero the time she had with you. I feel like you gave her soul a chance to heal.
Also Yay for Sarah!! So lucky the horse got such a wonderful home
R.I.P. HERO .Run free forever in the sky over fields of green where u will never be hurt or in pain again . At least she finally knew love and got great care before the last act of kindness .
Kudos to the farriers..that’s hard work, but with their education and knowledge of the hoof/ leg can they help correct, hopefully their walk..❤️❤️❤️
The two newbies don’t know how lucky they are.
We should be able to clone Doc and sent him all over the world (We need one her in Austria). He is the most amazing vet I have seen working with horses and just an amazing person like all of you.
Bitte auch einen Doc nach Deutschland schicken :)
Y’all made the right call for Hero. It’s a hard a decision to make , but sometimes the right call is the hardest. I’m so sorry for your loss. Hero was an amazing horse and I bet she is running free in heaven and healthy.
Heartbroken that you had to say goodbye to Hero. I was so hopeful when she perked up so much with your care, and understand that death is not always the enemy and the kindest thing you can do is put an end to suffering. Thank you for giving her a wonderful couple of weeks and a chance to reconnect with people who care.
You were a special gal Sarah before the adoption but now your actions have made it a fact! So very happy for you and your horse that you found each other. Age is but a number and with all the love and care you will give him I have no doubt you'll be together for a good long while.
Enjoy every moment...
Look at the love between horse and proud new best friend
Doc is so funny 😂
I just love how when you say "you wanna come home and be mine" his ears just immediately perk up, thats just when you know its a match not only for you as a human but you are the match for them too, I alwasy look at their ears when people are adopting, its so sweet to see them do that when they hear those sweet words, they just know.
So sad but at least hero’s last few weeks she knew was love was like
So sad about Hero, but she's in alot better place. Fly high the angel. No more horrible pain. Heaven gained a angel.😪🙏🙏❤️
We all have a request. We love to hear about every horse diagnosis when they are doing intake. It helps others to understand what is going on. Please!!! thank we love the videos!! Just wander what happened to the horse that kicked Tawnee? Cant wait to see the new intake video. Great job team!!
Yes, I am very curious about Kicky and how she/he is progressing.
@@brendareed8412 same here
I’ll bet Kicky is flyin’ with the angels if you know what I mean. Tawnee was NOT amused with the kicking
@@jackies.7924 It was bad and Kicky moved arouñd and aimed at Tawnee.
Tawnee was kicked by Donovan. He's up for adoption on HPHS-Website!
Lol Doc is so freaking wholesome.
I'm heartbroke that Hero didn't make it. I was so hopeful her leg would heal with just enough time. But hearing what Doc explained about the conditions found during the necropsy, She would have been suffering needlessly for my well wishes. You all did the best you could and made a tough decision, I'm sure. And I'm also sure, the correct one for Hero. She at least knew some love, caring people, and in spite of the pain she must have been in, a measure of happiness before it was time to let her go. Thank you for trying so very much. I had been following her progress on Facebook. I asked about her in a private message. I was hopeful for her.
CONGRATULATIONS SARAH ON YOUR FOREVER FRIEND!!!
Kana is beautiful, I loved my old 36 year old. So loving
I have no cash for your fantastic quest to save these (and the other) loyal, noble beasts. My own horse and two cats take all my spare cash....(you know how it goes 🤷♀️) I freely give daily prayers and my usual good thoughts and best wishes to you and yours. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU 🥲💕
THANK YOU 🙏💋
I had tears, from that first night Hero was on video I was in love. I have a soft spot for giants. Thank you all for not letting stay in pain...
so heartbreaking that heros previous owners didn't do anything about her leg! But sooo thankful tha you guys did all you could for her!! Thank you!!!
You guys are the best run horse rescue I have ever seen! If only dog rescues followed your protocols we would have more safe healthy adoptable dogs in the system
Beautiful community
I hope you are going to do an intake video on the horses that you just brought back from the auction. I’ve always really enjoyed watching the intake videos.
God Bless all that you’ll do.
RIP Hero, fly high and enjoy being pain free
Next episode will be the auction rescue and more!
So sad, but thank you for giving her the best chance before giving the last act of kindness ❤
RIP Hero.
Oh such sad news about Hero, but its not just about doing the right thing by letting her suffering stop, but also about she had weeks where she knew she was being cared for, had food, had water, had love and was safe from harm. What more can any living creature want before they take their last breath? Thank you for rescuing her.
That girl Cassie is always smiling she's got good vibes! Keep up the good work
Hero had a great life with you guys.
So sorry for the loss of Hero. It is never easy to make the decision to to the "Last Act of Kindness" that you all do. You all do a fantastic job with these rescues. In the past I have rescued horses from both regular livestock and all horse auctions. I also at that time watched many go hopelessly to kill buyers as you call them.
It is very sad to see an injured ex race horse come in with a bad knee only to be sold to slaughter buyers.
Thank you for everything you do.
Yay Sarah! Kana is a lucky boy!
I also wanted to say that it's sad Hero had to be put down, BUT Horse Plus:
1) Saved her from a terrifying death in a slaughterhouse or even on a slaughter truck
2) Did the right thing by accepting that it was time to let her go
3) Showed her weeks of loving kindness and care that she otherwise probably never experienced. Her quality of life in her last few weeks was the best she could have been given and Horse Plus did it without hesitation, even understanding that they might not be able to save her.
PLEASE SUPPORT this incredible organization!
:’( poor hero I was hoping she would get better she was so beautiful 💔 thanks for making her last weeks good ones
sorry for your loss praying
Sad for all that need to be let go… Blessings to all of you who have that awful job. I was a 20 year emergency vet tech, and we have a dog rescue at the shop I groom at♥️. IT AINT EASY!!! But the rewards outweigh the sad times!!! Hard when ya get attached though!!!!😑😩🤪🥰‼️💕
Why wouldn't anyone like the content of this awesome video?
Hello. I love watching your videos and updates on the previous horses, donkey and others beautiful animals y’all rescue. When I was looking on your adoption website, one horse caught my eye and my heart melted. I’m interested in the beautiful horse named Skippy. And by how far my dream is to have a friend by my side, I fell in love with Skippy. Unfortunately I can’t get a horse. I don’t have a job and my parents aren’t horse people, and they don’t want to spend the time and money to deal with another animal. For how sad I am to say that I hope Skippy finds a forever loving home. And thank you guys for doing this. Y’all have saved so many lives and it melts my heart to see it. All they want is someone to love them. God bless you guys. ❤️🥺🐴
Sorry to hear about Hero, such a beautiful horse. Needless to say you didn't leave a stone unturned to try and get him better but as Doc said, the damage was already done.
Absolutely amazing
I love your channel and I am so happy you are rescuing all of these horses
Furosemide (aka Lasix) is a diuretic. What our Grammas used to call a "water pill" . Used to try and get the leg swelling to go down
Sometimes all you can do is give them all the love you can and make their last days special and your whole crew do this daily bless your kind hearts
so happy sarah adopted her love, happy birthday sarah
So sorry to hear about Hero. You guys have her the best possible life and did everything for her you could. Her leg was just to far gone. I'm sure she knows you guys tried your hardest. She was a beautiful horse. 💜
I love Gray’s freckles.
Sara you made me cry thank u u are a good person
The Belgian was a truly sad case, you guys made the last few weeks of her life truly in peace, she had past on with people around her that loved her and just wanted the very best for her, she felt it i know it. So happy she has met you guys, truly thankful, i know she is too. I was rooting for Hero, I found you ony today and have been binge watching the episodes hoping to hear her getting better. Thank you guys for having hope in her, may her soul rest in most peaceful green field.
Hero is at least out of pain. My sister has cellulitis and it's on ongoing battle for the last six months. Been in the hospital for treatment. Very painful.
Aw man. Poor girlie. At least her leg will be better now :( I love what you guys do and how you help any animals condition!
Wow things are so different in the US. Riding a senior horse over 30. Just wouldn’t happen in the UK. Also I’ve noticed the weight restrictions on horses are totally different. 10% of horses body weight is allowed in the UK but 20% in USA. Strong little ponies your side of the pond 😀. Love the work you are doing. Amazing. True heroes.
I'm so glad the you all are doing a good job Nannette
I feel so sad that you have to justify releasing these animals from the pain that they have endured. Myself, I am so happy that people like all of you put the horses etc well being is what counts.
God bless all of you
So wonderful to see how Sarah’s horse looked after good care and now going to a loving home with her❤️. What more could he ask for after his tough years and ending up looking like he did at the auction.
just finished watching spirit and crying, watching this will really flip the mood
Please make more videos with Doc. He is so compassionate and kind and calm. I love watching him.
Cayna went to a great home. Sarah will not have him need for nothing. Beautiful horse.
Glad hero came to be with us guys she know what it mean be loved and really care for sweet was happy at the end with friends by her tc and gb you All for good work do for horses and other animal s
Beautiful episode!!! So happy for Sarah and her new horsey!! Xo
Hero was really a sweet girl and she had a lot of love in her last month or so. I was really hopeful for her. You all have done everything you could and than some.
I'm so sorry to see Hero had to cross the 🌈 bridge. I'm am so glad that you could examine and learn about her leg problem so you could learn to possible help another 🐎 in the future.
Doc has the most gentle and calming voice in the entire world. I could literally listen to him all day every day. I would love to work for him. He is amazing! You are so lucky to have him. What an inspiration. Thank you for all your doing HSH. I watched the part 1 for the new episode with the leg issues and I was just in tears the whole time. I cannot believe people do that horses. They are such an amazing creature.
I donated to Horse Plus for the first time because of Hero. When I heard Jason say that they had rescued 43 precious lives and Hero was in the background I knew I had to help. Thank You guys for all you do! It helps to know that Hero felt love, kindness, and attention in those last few weeks.
Thank you for all you do for these beautiful animals.
Bless all of you and bless doc I'll tell you what doc is an inspiration doc inspires ducks inspiring others to get involved with veterinarian science and bless all of you bless you you guys have a passion and you know you guys you guys are wonderful you guys you inspire and to see Tony and I'm going to say Justin I hope I get that hope I have your day right John Mr Tony's husband I hope I got that right but to see your young son getting involved I'll tell you what you're laying the groundwork for the young people to get involved with animal rescue you guys are wonderful my hat's off to you guys you guys are rock stars and you don't know it you go that extra mile in your passion bless you all always and I just just incredible I applaud I pray for you guys every every day for all that you do and pray for those beautiful beautiful horses you bring happiness and joy and safety and it's so wonderful you know people don't realize animals are so intelligent and when we watch the horses come back from the past year they come on down to get checked out and everything it's amazing it's incredible it's unstaged it's a tremendous tremendous event bless you bless you all you guys are so so creative but you know what most of all you've got big hearts but most of all you're so humble so very very humble and that's that's a that's a that's an attribute that it's not taught and you humility is just second to none bless you bless you bless you bless you always
I'm so sorry about Hero. Thank you for all you do.
I'm so sad about Hero, I was really drawn to her and was the most excited to see her recover.
Run in peace Hero. We were really hoping you'd pull through so we could give you a forever home. 😪
Congratulations Sara!!! 😍
It’s best that Hero crossed over the rainbow 🌈 bridge. She is no longer in pain and you gave her more love in the short time you had her than she probably had for a long time.
You have an amazing vet
😍 beautiful 🐎
Angel legit looks exactly like my horse. Same name and all. She’s a dark colored Buckskin, literally everyone asks me for her.
Jasper and Memphis are more like 500 lbs. underweight but at least they gave them up before it was too late. Pretty horses. They sure have a nice trailer, though.... smh.
I saw that too. Shameful people.
Yeah, new truck, new trailer..🤔
Under fed horses with matted manes :/ Just glad they didn't wait any longer to surrender them.
maybe the car and trailer were rental/borrowed from a friend, to be able to surrender them
The Trailer did have a large decal that said “Rent Me” on the back, kind of like Uhaul, so I figured it was a rental.
Very few places available to surrender horses- other than auction. They probably didnt want horses end up with a kill buyer.
Hope these horses are able to put on weight, improve health and find a new home. None of us know the situation unless
you have walked in their shoes. Best situation is surrender horses before weight loss.
Thank you for trying for her, makes me very sad, but thank you for trying
I was so hoping hero would get better. At least she knew kindness and compassion in the end
Thank you for all you do for these horses very sad about hero but its the last act of kindness you gave her a good couple weeks and tried everything thats what matters
What is the youngest you guys would hire? Not like I’m old enough to work anywhere. But I have always talked about how I would love to work there in the future if it’s cleaning the stalls mucking poop whatever it takes.
Well I think you guys should contact them directly. I would hire the girl who said she’s so whatever and the manure and whatever it took ! That shows good work ethic right away !!! Your already a good horse woman!!!! 🐴❤️🐎❤️
Can I join too….? Lol! I used to have a “job” cleaning the barn (technically speaking, I’m too young but I worked for discounted lessons) and I worked it for 2 years so I have experience. I’m not that far from them!
I had difficulty donating on your website. I pressed DONATE and the circle went round and round. I waited a minute or two, then hit the back button and the information page came up. Thank you for helping these poor babies.
Der Doc ist super, tolle Arbeit und ein grosses Lob an das gesamte Team 👍
Lucky Keena!
