WE DID IT AGAIN! Another rescue! Three more Belgian Draft horses arrive at the farm! Ep. 80

Episode 80
Back about 2 months ago, I had a lady reach out to me from Weatherford, Texas because she needed to re-home her two Belgian Draft horses. Zeus and Hercules were previously used to pull farm equipment and carriages on an Amish Farm. They were partners in a working team and to this day still move in unison. They are a bonded pair and needed to be re-homed together. They were rescued from Bowie Texas Livestock originally about a year and a half ago. I agreed to help her try and find a home for the horses as she was having a hard time finding a rescue group to help or even take her calls. I thought I found a family to adopt these two beautiful geldings but at the last minute the home we had planned didn't work out and we were at square one looking for a place for these boys to go. After telling Cory what had happened with the family not working out we decided to give them a home here at Fletcher Farms Amarillo and the Big Hoof Foundation.
During that same week that we agreed to take the boys, Jessica from Bowie Texas Livestock reached out to me because another rescue group had paid the bail for a Belgian Draft Horse but they were in need of finding a home for her. When I told Cory about this sweet girl with some medical conditions, he agreed to pick her up when he was going to get the boys from Weatherford.
And that is how we ended up with another three horses here on the farm! This video is all the details about the three horses we brought to the farm and how they are doing now. We were not expecting the mare to be in the condition she was in! We are doing one last fundraiser for the end of the year to help cover the medical bills for the new rescued mare. Also, an update on everything else happening here on the farm.
The fundraiser is on our website at www.bighooffoundation.org
We hope you enjoy this video! Make sure you like, comments and subscribe to our channel so you don't miss anything happening around here! Because it's never a dull moment!
As a growing horse rescue group, we rely on monetary donations to keep the organization moving forward. The Big Hoof Foundation will always be transparent with how your donations are used. 100% of the money we raise goes directly to the rescued horses' bail fees, transport, feed, hay, medical bills, medications, alternative medical treatments, supplements, surgeries, etc. Every dollar raised is for the horses!
Our ability to help these horses is only because of the generous donations from our subscribers and followers! Please consider making a tax deductible donation to the Big Hoof Foundation to help us save more of these precious lives from shipping to slaughter and provide them with the care they deserve. Thank you everyone for your continued support in saving these gentle giants! We could not be saving these lives without you!
If you would like to support us, the one item WE always need is FEED! If you would like to send a gift/donation of feed (Alfa Pro) you can send that through our local feed store, HF & C Amarillo. HF&C Amarillo has offered to help us with anyone wanting to send a gift/donation of Alfa-Pro to the horses. When you call, tell them you are sending a gift to Fletcher Farms Amarillo/Big Hoof Foundation and they will add the gifts to our account.
Alfa-Pro is a complete pelleted alfalfa mixed with vitamins and minerals all the horses need on a daily basis. Alfa-Pro is $17.45 per bag. They do offer a discount if you purchase by the pallet (40 - 50 pound bags) $16.95 per bag if purchased by the pallet. WE go through 6 pallets per month to feed all 22 horses (440 pounds per day)!
Thank you to everyone that has sent us gifts of Alfa Pro! The horses love Alfa Pro and we truly appreciate the bags/pallets you have sent to us!

*These people have hearts of gold. PLEASE DONATE.* If all the viewers just sent $5 it would be a tremendous help. Rescue work is stressful, expensive and often heartbreaking. I try to give as much as I can, when I can. They are really doing the hard work and every equine vet visit costs a small fortune. I just donated and I wish it could have been 100xs more. God Bless you all. Merry Christmas.

[@FletcherFarmsAmarillo]

Thank you so much! We truly appreciate your support! I have uploaded the most recent vet bills for transparence and what this fundraiser is covering.

[@gj9736]

I know how stressful rescue work is and also emotionally draining because of all the abuse and misery you get to witness. I did dog rescue for years and was involved in many rescues, I also fostered, it wasn’t equine rescue but non the less it takes its toll on the rescuers no matter what animal it is. I also know how expensive rescue work can be because of surgeries, general vet care, vaccinations, food and other supplies that are needed on a regular basis, I no longer do rescue work due to my age but I do support the Big Hoof Foundation whenever I can on a fixed income. Horses are my first love before before any other animal, I have loved them as far back as I can remember and they have a very special place in my heart, I so miss being around them, smelling their scent, being able to touch their velvety soft noses and hearing their whinnies, so I get my “fix” by watching videos on channels like this one. I love all animals and none of them deserve to be mistreated or abused and it absolutely breaks my heart knowing what is being done to our horse population in America! Granted we no longer allow horse slaughter, however we do allow for those majestic creatures to be send off to Mexico and Canada for slaughter for dog food and to land on someone’s dinner table which is disgusting and I find it atrocious that our government is even allowing that!

OMG!! ZEUS! So cute taking a snooze and all his adorable grunting and groaning. He looks super happy! And poor Aurora and her issues, she's been through a lot clearly but has found a little slice of heaven now. Once she puts on a few hundred pounds she will feel and look even better! I hope that wound on her leg clears up and she's not as stocked up on that leg. Once that wound is better it will be easier. We used to run the hose on the swollen leg a few times a day and keep it wrapped at night and hand walking and gentle massage really helps. Though I noticed the older drafts tend to get stocked up in the hind end. You guys are truly heroes!! Sending you and all your giant fur babies much love and snuggles!! Bless you for all you do!

It's fantastic that you were able to keep the two boys together for their retirement. I'm so sorry to hear about Aurora's troubles. Hopefully it's was found early enough to get her healthy so you can feed her, your favorite pastime! A sinus infection in a footlong nostril must be extra painful. Hopefully this will clear it up this time and she will be over this. I'm so happy you finally got Noah to stand still for a few minutes. He must have really been in need of balancing. The farrier must have been completely zapped after all of those giant hoofs he trimmed.

Multiple tries to get subscribed. KZbin makes it extremely difficult to get subscribed, and then frequently dropped from subscription. Just so frustrating. Anyway, I donated, and like another person said, if everyone donated just $5 this would cover their needs. Saving these draft horses is the best thing for your soul. They work HARD all their lives and get sent to Canada or Mexico for slaughter. Mexico slaughterhouses are the worst because they are put in a tight space and then stabbed with a knife in their backs until they collapse (still alive but paralyzed). Then they are butchered while alive but unable to fight back because they are paralyzed. It's not just a killing...it is torture with a slow death. This horse sanctuary gives the horses personal care and TLC. They are the kind of young people that anyone can love. They are the best kind of humans!!!
