Don't forget to mention what happens to the unwanted ones. I've rescued horses for 23 years, mostly ex race horses, but am now too old to do that anymore. There are not enough homes for horses anymore, and the expenses associated with horses are getting beyond most folks. Glad you can still help the ones you do.
The Amish horses are sold for carriage rides in the God awful cities! They work hard pulling carriages in all kinds of weather, no grass fields for them! They are abused their whole lives! They are the lucky ones the rest go to the slaughter houses! We need more rescue farms and the Amish community needs to be monitored for animal abuse! They do not treat animals right!
@@christinelanteri2114 We went to the pony crossing in Va and they took the wild ponies away from their mothers. We asked a farmer that was there and he said the mother ponies usually nurse for two years when they are wild ponies. He said that they are usually still nursing when they have another foal so the people down there sold off their babies. We will never go back the young ponies were crying and their mothers were crying too! We have a local dairy farm that removes the new born calves and keep them away from their mothers. They said the mothers can kill them too easily. That seems funny to me because we were at the calf section when a tractor picked up a dead newborn calf the last time we were there years ago. Those calves need to be with their mothers to get their milk to keep them healthy! They tried to sneak the calf out on a tractor covered up in a blanket. Any newborn should be with their mother as long as possible!
Sadly it’s hard for most people to get even one horse cause there so expensive sadly with all the vet bills and everything you have to but for it and all the space you have to have
@@daveshoemaker7137 Apparently you don't understand where your milk comes from. It doesn't go to the babies, except for the colostrum, the first milk. That is taken and bottle fed to the calves, then they get milk replacer and the rest of the milk goes to processing plants to be turned into milk, butter, ice cream, etc. The calves that are females are kept, and the boys go to auction. I live next to a dairy farm and take care of their barn cats. The cows live in big herds and the babies would get trampled. Cows are not aware of their size and lay on the babies, or step on them. Also, sometimes calves are too big and don't survive birth, and sometimes the mom doesn't make it. Also, twins don't do well either.
It's horrible because you never know what crazy people are going to get them and I wish a good person could take them all but I know it's a lot of work and money
How can you go to those horrendous auctions, knowing about those messed up kill pens? You say, some of them are a little rough. Yes, and don't you think that when those poor souls come in, in that shape that the humans that bring them should be arrested? If you, or anyone else, had horses in that shape on their property, someone would be in trouble! You pass by the neglected, abused, worked to death horses like, "oh well! Look how cute this horse is, this one is super friendly and super cute"! No heart. I worked in rescue, and anyone that walks by those sad, sweet, souls, that'll end up going to slaughter, well, no heart.
This auction looks to actually care about the horses that go through their barn. I've seen other auctions where the horses have given up hope, but these look so full of life. I bet these horses went for thousand of dollars instead of a measly 500 dollars
Wait ohio!? But omggg all the animals are soooo cute!❤💅 but i loveee that bunny it soo cute❤ btw i own a bunny i mifht get a horse idk btw i LOVEEE UR VIDS!❤
They have been betrayed by the ones they have loved. I hate that they get called livestock. Animals are sentient beings just like us. I get that people fall on hard times but to just auction of a soul that has loved you as if they are worthless is evil. Humans need to do much better.
You sure all of theese where horses? I whould probably don’t buy anything from ohio If I was you 💀 ( yes Ik the trend is kinda over but this legendary trend never dies, don’t think ohio will ever die to bc if they get attacked they will probably just send a few “sheep’s” out in the war
Omgggg you should totally add a fjord to yr collection they are amazing ive had one since he was a foal and he’s suuuch a good pony he doesn’t spook at any loud buildings construction noises unlike my mums mare Welsh he just storms on by !
Don't mind me but how tall are you?? You look very short next to the fjord 🥲 I love fjords but I'm tall. I'm 5'8 so I need a horse that's 16 hands up. lowest I'll go is 15 until it's top uncomfortable for me. And I'm a healthy weight. So a 13 to 14 hand fjord is right below my chest.
I would have to take the ones that look sad and not taken care of .. it breaks my heart to know so many animals don’t have good lives. Wish they could all be saved❤️
I love fjorden horses l tell the story Story time So l had a fjorden horse friend named Win but sadly he passed away he was 21 years old and l miss him so much😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Fjord!? Yeah it makes me wonder. I wouldn’t have been able to resist the draft horses though. I’m blind to reality and I just want to feed them all. It’s a losing proposition all around.
I don't go to places like that, cuz i would leve with 4horses, 4calfs, 4 Bulls, 4 rabbits, 4 cows, and 4horses. Jk, i know i can't save every animal, those you take in need vet care good food, shoes, and so on and that is not cheap, i do it 2 at a time, can't do more, cuz the ones i have deserves everything i can give them, also i have 2dogs that needed a good forever home, they also came from very very bad owners and they had no trust in humans, it has taken a lot of work, but we are at such a good place now, they (both dogs and horses) all are healthy happy and such goofballs, just enjoying life❤️
I miss horses so bad, I love them so much, i love everything about them, now I have bad knees, cant work, I will die longing to own much less riding.. 💔
This breaks my heart! This is why I can't go to auction... I'd want to save them all and I know I can't 😭 to see their potential and not be able to help 💔
Omg you have such restraint if that was me I would have wanted all of them I love animals more than people with the exception of my husband and family ❤
Oh TEASE ME with that mare/foal pair! If mama drives, someone could have a CRACK little scramble team! And that Fjord. Kinda rare, and the one I got to pet on once was a bean bag on hooves! You see another one, you wont be sorry.
I have a horse 🐎 and I have a horse too and i Love my baby horse I Like my baby horse I have 5 horses 🐎 and I Love them so much and they are so cute 🥰❤️
