[@anijohnson8082]

Oh Kaitlin...I am so praying sweetie. I thought you were both so sweet together. You are such a good girl! Hugs sweet girl!

[@LindaPoorman]

I am so sorry Katelyn, you and Kory were such a beautiful couple. My prayers for healing of your hearts.

[@judithjury5537]

I am so sorry to hear that. Hope very think go well for you. ❤❤ Keep your self warm in the winter . Can not what to see you new baby ❤❤ I watch your videos all the way from Western Australia 😊❤

[@loriegreene9375]

I just want to say thank you to both vets for explaining their findings. We all learn so much from you ladies. Horse anatomy is so interesting and I did not know that there teeth as well as a rabbits continue to grow.

[@roonsbirdbird2867]

Dr.Lydia, the empathy you carry for the suffering is in good measure, you my dear, are golden!❤

[@sandrakarls8466]

So true!! And Dr. Gina as well!!

[@anijohnson8082]

She is just so wonderful. I love the way she talks to them. She is also such a great teacher too!

[@75SpeedRacer]

Congratulations to Wallen for pulling on Hailey’s heart strings lol ❤

[@giovannagallottini]

These lady veterinarians are absolutely amazing. THANK YOU!

[@kmsbanr]

These two sisters were loved and the owners didn't try to squeeze every last penny from their sweet lives and brought them to HP. You two are the epitome of love and kindness. End of life is terrible for owners and vets who have to give that euthanasia to the animal. I dread having to say goodbye every time but always know its the right thing and can't let my beloved suffer for my weakness. Its the horrible reality to pet ownership that we will usually outlive our four legged family members.

[@allisonkeevers6076]

Wallen is very lucky to have been adopted by Hailey, she is an awesome horsewoman.

[@daphnerandall4084]

I cry with the vets when they cry-thank you beautiful ladies.

[@judyboyle9232]

I had a good cry, they have to make tough decisions, but these horses do need dignity, they sure get a lot of love from all of us watching every week!

[@joycewhitney3852]

Nothing‘s going on, or 20 horses coming in today! Ha ha love it.

[@GodsPropertyMJBeloved]

So sorry to hear Kory and Kaitlin separated. 😢 I hope things improve for their family 🙏🏾 Paolo will be fine I'm sure. Beautiful boy! He'll find a Good home. He's in Great hands❤

Yeah I hope you have any kind of music baby doll I'm there for you 💋💕,😊

[@juliettaLametta5854]

Separated? Hoe?! Did I see the same video as you?

[@suzystone244]

The two mares are sweet girls. The last act of kindness is the correct decision. Suffering is not an option. Loving your horse can be truly difficult. But you show unselfish love.❤❤

[@TinaEnemark]

Dr Lydia would make the most fantastic teacher.

[@zinnia3684]

Teacher , mother, model, vet, wife...

[@kathleenwiebe6906]

I work at a shelter that supports cats and dogs and there are some truly heartbreaking stories that test your ability to cope and can make it hard to keep going. One thing we do that helps combat this is have a “warm fuzzy stories” binder full of the success stories that really touched us and bring us joy to remember. A dog who lived at the shelter for months and was adopted and returned multiple times but ended up finding the perfect family, a cat who was so stressed in shelter, misunderstood and overlooked but one day found a loving family and truly blossomed in their home. On a day when something really heartbreaking happens we take a look through the “Warm fuzzy stories” binder and it lifts our spirits and remind us of the ones we’ve helped, the ones we’ve saved and gives us the strength to keep going and help another one in a hard situation. I recommend this to every shelter!!

[@nikkiknight9455]

Two of the most wonderful veterinarians ❤

[@bettyechristain9711]

Drs.Lydia and Gina l admire both of you for the kindness and love you give to each animal you treat. My prayers for the tough cases.

[@HorseLady1109]

Every time I’ve had to say goodbye to my animal, my vets have been tremendously supportive.

[@HorseLady1109]

Yay! Good job Hayley, congratulations! I’m so happy for Wallen.

[@jannawhitten2473]

Oh no Caitlin! I’m soooo sorry!

[@HorseLady1109]

My heart is breaking for Paolo. I hope he finds a new forever home soon. My best to Kaitlyn and her family.

[@Rgrn-e7z]

Rest in Peace to the 2 beautiful mares that had to cross the Rainbow Bridge,

[@Open2OpenUT]

I cried with Drs. Lydia & Gina over the two lovely mares, it was a hard call but the right call and letting them go together was so special 😭💔. Wallen is a lucky boy to have Hayley as his new mommy 😄👏👍❤️; congratulations Hayley 😄👏❤️❤️. God bless all of the staff working at HPHS you are all Earth Angels ❤👏👍👌♥️

[@zinnia3684]

I w was as doing fine but they went on a bit too long for me to hold it together. Bless them both. There is nothing worse than a cold bedside manner. 💕

[@zinnia3684]

We humans are above the angels according to the word of God.

[@Flash3-22]

Been following FTLOH horses coming your way, and SO excited to see them arrive. All fairly good looking wild horses. Sorry to hear the reservation gentlers couldn't stay. Watched til the end. The work you have done is remarkable. Hardest part is how many needed the last act of kindness. Thank you so much.

[@cherylmillard2067]

For the Love of the Hoof uses a sham supposed "equine chiropractor" Sierra, in the videos showing her, she uses a rubber mallet and by barely tapping on that rubber mallet she "realigns" a horse's spine, she then makes presumptive and highly speculative "diagnosis" without the aid of either radiographs or a DVM present. I have been telling this rescue they're wasting their money on this quack that could go to more rescues or proper vet care. This individual "Sierra" gives legitimate equine chiropractic medicine a bad name. One of the videos is called "Rescues need help on Warrior Wednesday" dated Apr 13, 2023, pay attention to timestamps 1:29 1:39 2:12 2:39 (2:39 where "Sierra" speculates "he has a lot of calcification", this is a presumptive "diagnosis" on her part, at 2:50 she also says (paraphrased) if not too bad calcifications can be broken up over time with continued use of chiropractic). Dr. Mike Adney who is a legitimate and world renown sport horse chiropractor on YT, I recently messaged Dr. Adney during one of his live shows and he had a bit to say about these sham people that parade as equine chiropractors, it is the live called Sport Horse Chiropractic, Dr. Mike Adney is live! dated two weeks ago (as of 2/21/24 it's the last live) and the timestamp is 29:10. I have commented several times on FTLOTH videos with valid concerns and was basically blown off by FTLOTH stating that this person was "highly qualified", anyone can sound qualified but that doesn't make them so. I feel this is a gross waste of donations and negligent to donators, it also eats up funds that could rescue more horses. I assume this individual is still there as she can be seen in the latest video called 'A Lady Saved.'

[@gaeltacht]

I really appreciate the end of life commentary. I had to say goodbye to my heart-dog 2 months ago and I wrestled with the decision for so long. He made it 16 years and we were able to have the vet come to my home to make his passing as calm and comfortable and as peaceful as possible. I know in my heart it was the right call before he got any worse but it was so, so hard. It still is. Ultimately I had to recognize and admit that he was only hanging on for me at the end, and gave him my blessing to rest. I miss him so much.

[@kristawilson718]

@gaeltacht darling per Kat Kerr,ctheir not resting! They are running and leaping and having a wonderful time! So rejoice! He'll be waiting for you in Heaven healthy and whole! No pain! ❤️🐕

[@classicambo9781]

Sorry for your loss. It is never an easy decision for someone you love.

[@LynnMarie3D]

Same with our German Shepherd, Gabby. She was 14 and the vet came to our house and we were with her saying goodbye and loving her until the very end. I appreciate you addressing the end of life emotions and being a loving caregiver of the souls that are making the transition.❤

[@JennaGetsCreative]

Aww, Kaitlin! I'm so sorry you're going through all that.

[@kristenkylemack9477]

I am so sorry to hear Katelyn & Kory split up! I thought you were such a cute couple & now a baby on the way! I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers.

[@imjustabee]

It's a shame about the gentlers moving on, but I wish them all the best wherever they go next, and hope you're able to find new people that fit the organization!

[@eleicajunstrom8724]

Note: Not sure where my reply went? Only an upper case "C" was left? But here is my message... Can't understand why the Horse Gentlers left either. Maybe because it was colder now? Maybe the Cost of living? Or maybe their families wanted the home for the winter and the holidays? They will be missed and I am sure HPHS will find other horse trainers/Gentlers.

[@IloveD0809]

I wonder why they didn’t feel that HPHS wasn’t a good fit for them.. in yesterday’s vlog they seemed happy to be there with the horses and the people..

[@eleicajunstrom8724]

Also, it is sad that Kory and Katelyn are having marriage issues. Keeping them in our prayers.

[@444angelmine]

​@@IloveD0809 from what I understand from Tawnees live , a lot of people posted negative comments about them, they saw the comments and were very hurt by them! I can't blame them , no one wants to read hurtful hateful comments about them!

[@eleicajunstrom8724]

@@444angelmine Well that sucks. I thought the Horse Gentlers have been blessed with a very unique gift and the horses feel in their hearts, that the Gentlers mean them no harm. Thank you from my heart, Horse Gentlers, for all you have done to help HPHS with saving and helping the horses in your care. God Bless all of you and keep you safe.

This is heartbreaking for me. My mare is 22. She's been yard art for years and is sound and comfortable. I will be by her side when her time comes. I owe her that and she'll take a big part of my heart when she goes

[@30dayride67]

I have the same situation with my 25 year old mare. Hoping she takes after her mom who made it to 43, but that doesn't look promising. She has Cushings, so we'll see how far we get, but so far she's still doing very well in all departments.

[@ambersemona9676]

So true Dr. Lydia when it comes to being OK with talking about end of life for your pet I for the first time in my 48 years experienced the horrific grief by putting my 24 year old Chihuahua to sleep two days ago he probably should’ve been put to sleep a year ago to be honest But he would show signs that he was himself again. I didn’t feel that I should take the initiative like God and put him to sleep although now as of two days ago, he clearly told me he was ready and so I needed to be ready for him. Also thank you to all the veterinarians out there and especially to you too beautiful ladies. One more thing To Tawnee your message at the end has me crying my eyes out! I am SO very proud of every single one who has been a part of this rescue ‼️🥰🫶🏼🥰🫶🏼🥰 even those that are watching and 👍🏼 every single video‼️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💝 a big…… THANK YOU‼️

[@charlotterockel-kennedy8913]

So very sorry for your loss, what a grand age. They do tell us when it's time 😢 keeping you in my thoughts and prayers ❤🙏

[@MadddyDawn]

I lost my boy 9 days ago. He was 14. I’ve had him since he was 3 weeks old. He was a pit mix and the best boy ever. He took care of me and my daughters. They referred to him as their brother. 24 is amazing. You obviously loved and took great care of him. It’s hard to lose that constant presence in our life. I’m so glad you were blessed to have him your life.

[@lauradenio5846]

Absolutely love the vets. They are both so caring and loving. ❤

[@vintagelady1]

It is so hard for the vets & you 2 are so very, very brave to keep doing this tough job. You ALWAYS do right by the animals, whether it's getting them ready for adoption, carefl diagnosis, or sending them on to The Next Thing. I'm glad that you have each other to lean on, in addition to the staff at HPHS. Congrats to Haley & lucky, Wallen---when you fall in love, what else can you do but take them home! To Caitlin, I'm sorry that you & Korey are separated but I know you'll have lots of support with the baby, so kind of you to let your horse go to find a forever home!

[@HeleneBurger-o2n]

Thank you so much Tawnee, Jason and all the staff of Horse Plus! Thank you for rescuing and helping so many animals, you are amazing!! 🙏❤ So happy for Haily and Wallen, enjoy many happy years. So sorry Kory and Caitlen are no longer together, they were a lovely couple 😢

[@gillianmcgough9743]

I had to make this decision for my mare this year she was 30, and I had her for 28 years. I wanted her to go with some dignity. She suddenly started to lose weight. I had her tested for cushings disease and insulin resistance, and her bloods came back within normal range, but she then she became lame in her pelvic/hip area, it was a hard decision to make but it was the right design for her I'm grateful that I have her son reuben.

[@heidimink6123]

Euthanasia is the easiest hard goodbye. It is so easy to end any suffering your animal may be experiencing, but it is so hard on our hearts. Having had to have multiple horses, dogs or cats put down, I can say whether they were my 32 year old gelding or a brand new feral kitten, they all take a piece of your heart. I am grateful that you all have each other to discuss and process these end of life releases you have to make. Bless you all.

You all do the most fantastic work, thank you so much.

[@francineherron1940]

I love Dr. Lydia and Dr. Gina, they are very thorough in their examinations and are very compassionate and loving with their patients. I can't even imagine how hard it must be in the decision to give them the last act of kindness, but it's better than their suffering. Congratulations Hailey on adopting Wallen🎉. Caitlin I am very sorry to hear that you and Kory are separated 😢.

[@FeatheredLife]

I wanted to add my 2 cents in on the last act of kindness. I have been down that road many many many many many many many times. Your heart bleeds only because you know that you cannot do anything more for that animal. I volunteered in a rescue for parrots for a while. One of the hardest cases that I had to say goodbye to was an Congo African grey named Mister. Mister should have been a pirate's parrot. His previous owner had taught him words that should never be spoken around a bird that mimics. In basic words he had a potty mouth. He was not fed a proper diet nor was he given proper care. When he came to the rescue his previous owner knew that she could no longer care for him. He had a multitude of internal problems, from kidney damage to liver damage to a broken wing that had never been healed properly. He was so sick, but such a fighter. We did everything humanly possible for that beautiful bird, to make his last days to his best days. The avian vet removed a stone/ mass from his kidneys. We all thought that he would do so much better, put the pain meds could no longer cover amount of pain that he was in. We all laid our hands on him as the vet gave him the last act of kindness. Rest in Peace Mister fly over the rainbow bridge. Dr Lydia breaking up is what I am doing right now. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 and it's ok.

[@wolfmare50]

One of the sacred acts of love there is.

[@pamlacey136]

I cried when the two sisters needed the last act of kindness. Then I smiled and chuckled when Hailey adopted Wallen!! So happy. Then sad again when the dog had to have his eye sewn shut (so glad he didn’t need the more extensive eye removal). I pray his nose sample comes back benign. I can only imagine what it must be like for all of you to have your emotions on a roller coaster everyday. I pray that you are all able to destress when you have time off. What a difficult job but what a need there is for people who do what you do and who love each one of these animals. Blessings to all of you…………………..

[@susansitterle3840]

What's this rainbow bridge? Animals go to heaven

[@jesseelisabeatty8205]

I used to rescue parrots but h no good deed goes unpunished, ( people who want the pretty one.. not the bald one , but the pretty one was bald a year ago. Or you're " selling" birds, not free adoption.( No my adoption fees or donations were made out to the avian vet, the feed store, for meds, and my doctor bill when I had to get stitches from taming,. No money went in my pocket, I had each parrots story, from intake, and to when they were adoption ready . totally transparent had all vet , food and rehab cost that they could see what cost went into that animal. I had them rated into experience levels, had " educational classes" on how to feed and care, and size of cage..or you could buy one from me .yes I sold cages.they didn't just come in the adoption fee unless specified. I made them come visit their " parrots and bond, did home checks..a lady decided she wanted a FREE scarlet macaw or an African grey ( my two personal birds) I told her she could maybe adopt a similar one but would have to volunteer to gain experience..she didn't want a bald bird .caused problems, so..I decided not to do that anymore. Too heart breaking to rehab, then have one pass..etc. my grey is almost 30 now. They just don't mimic..he makes his own conversation..lol. they are so smart.

I love the additional educational explanations by Dr. Lydia and Dr. Gina! So interesting! Thank you! I loved the ending presentation by Tawney! Very visual and creative. It seems like the number of horses saved from slaughter was too low. What is that based on? And remember to count the duck! Did I see anything about the chickens? Remember them, too, and the turtles and the other reptiles that were rescued! This was a great vlog episode! Thank you! P.S.

[@randomchick901]

My cat was diagnosed with an enlarged heart last year. He’s been on meds and doing well, though we know the problems are progressing. My partner and I discussed it and we knew that we didn’t want to engage in the “dance” of check ups and changing meds constantly just to keep him around when his heart isn’t in it anymore. It’s sucks but we know our only goal is for him to be happy and functioning basically normal up until the end. And then say goodbye at home on a good day

[@rpal320]

Today we had to make a tuff decision to send a beloved horse to heaven. I have such a greater respect for you Veterinarians making these life decisions. I appreciate you explaining each and every detail. Especially the selfish, costly decision to keep a horse alive and suffering because we want to prolong their life. You both brought comfort to my heart and helped me to know the right decision was made. Does it make it easier? Nope! It just helps to know it's the right thing to release an animals suffering.Even if the horse seems happy and active.

[@beckbeverley3451]

Thank u for all that u do. I love Dr Lydia's way of explaining diagnosis so we can understand. End of life is tough I have a 20yo maltease x kelpie who is amazing for her age. She helps move our cows and sheep and is happy to supervise most jobs lol I have had her almost half of my life. Last year she tore the cartalidge in her knee. We were advised to operate but at her age it was risky and the pure rehab and time to heal I thought would be too much. We had that tough talk. Where to from here. We discussed about keeping her pain free and mobile and what it may look like. I decided not to put her through the op and give her the opportunity to tell me what she needed most. I allowed time to heal and ensure she was not in pain. Thankfully she bounced back well. I truly believe that all people and animals have the right to die with dignity. And not linger and be tortured. We discussed that should this not work it would be the last act of kindness. My little rockstar is going strong. Sleeps a bit more but is so good. I hope I have many more years but her needs are the priority. Thank u to the vet team it's heartbreaking and the fact u show emotional is such a positive thing for u and them.

[@labyfan1313]

I know I wish my vet had said something when my cats were getting near the end of life. I remember being so mad when it came out of the blue that it was time for them to go because my cats never acted like anything was wrong with them, they didn't act like they were getting old and frail. The one cat had kidney failure and then 5 months later we took the other one to the vet because she was getting extra clingy and once she was there she wouldn't even stand up when you put down, she never did that at home but the vet said you know I think this is it. I hated myself because somehow it didn't click that she's an elderly cat and I was tossing her out of my room at night so I could get some sleep (which didn't work because then she'd just howl outside my door.) But I'll never forget hearing this and thinking why didn't anyone ever say before in all the routine vet visits that there was anything wrong, or mention about their age and say to start getting prepared. The whole time I thought they were in perfect health because no one said anything different and they didn't show any problems until the last moment. Edit: I should add that in each case when the vet told us they asked if we wanted to take them home for one more night together. The answer was immediately no. We didn't want them to suffer another second and they hated car rides, we didn't even want to put them through that stress.

I will do some praying for HP to be able to find gentler's and regular staff as well. I know that rescues often have trouble keeping staffed and that is because it can be difficult, sometimes risky and dirty work, and rescues cannot pay the same as many jobs people can get on the outside. I mentioned it last week and will again say, I am a tad worried that the operation might be getting a tad big for its' britches, yes you have to have funding, but you also need a bunch of staff, to get these animals adopted and cared for.

Sorry to hear about Katelyn and Corey. I love you both. I also love Haley, you are great with the horses. Also a quick major side note to dr Lydia and dr Gina …you are both so kind we are lucky to have you on here. Thank you all!
