Ahhh...Ozark really loves Becca...she's not nervous with her being so close to the baby...she just lays down beside her...now that's TRUST. Very special moment for all 3!

[@barryandjackypowell8239]

Congratulations Ozark, Becka and the Happy Little Accident as well as the rest of the human family! A lovely little filly.

Yes, pretty amazing bond they have.

[@juliemiller8437]

Your daughter is such a sweet blend of both her parents. Thank you for letting us in to your farm and family💛

[@dttruman]

She is just so laid back as she explains what happen and what will happen.

[@playlayful]

Don’t let anyone tell you differently. I’m a Morgan Horse breeder and that mare could care less about your daughter being with them. She sniffed, checked on them both, and laid down happily. PLUS that’s wonderful for that foal. Excellent imprinting! ❤️

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Thank you and exactly!

[@christinearbogast6751]

And its not often our horses will choose to lie down next to us! Beautiful example of a true bond.♥️

[@rubenjanssen1672]

jup the mare (or however you writh it) is accepting the daughters pressens with the foal. if the mare would not want you there she is more then strong enough to make it happen

[@mattheww797]

The problem is if you pet a foal the mother will reject it because of the human smell

[@nennaj6186]

The horse would only reject it for that reason if the mare didn’t trust the human like this mare trusts her human. You leave them alone when they aren’t bonded with you but if a mare is bonded with someone and wants them there they will let you know and if anything it only encourages the bond.

[@katebaxter1160]

Also you can see the absolute trust in Ozark letting Becca cuddle her baby. She was soo comfortable she laid down next to Becca and Happy. It’s absolutely wonderful to see and there is nothing to comment negatively about. ❤

[@suzyl-h4437]

Magnifique ❤❤❤

[@juli_m8014]

This video can be described in one word “Beautiful”.

[@valorieblackwell8356]

Absolutely the baby is just absolutely gorgeous and already going to be a strong girl

[@valorieblackwell8356]

Ozark is such a good mom

[@MichaelArlt]

Seeing that young lady caring for her animals and taking full responsibility makes me gain trust in humanity a lot. You as parents did a great job raising her. There are a lot of so called parents out there, having no clue what they raised if they ever had any influence. You all can be proud. You as parents and Becka as well Everyone, have a great day and stay healthy and happy

Well said!!

[@janetkelley3351]

This is a beautiful example of what happens when someone builds a relationship of trust and respect with a horse from day one. Becca is an amazing friend to mom and baby.

[@__.J.C.__]

My jaw was dropped seeing that baby run around It’s hard to even comprehend how that is possible

[@scoon2117]

B3cause humans are basically worthless babies until we are 18

[@alexng4]

yes they can run..because they have legs.. Just in case you are stil wondering how its possible...

[@harveydent-]

@@alexng4 Right, because so many animals can run as soon as they're born... such as human infants, apes, puppies, kittens, and kangaroos to name a few. Oh wait, they can't. Maybe next time you want to act snarky to a nice comment you should bang your head against the wall until it isn't so stupid

[@Serene182]

@@alexng4well most babies take a little bit to run so the fact that ozark’s kid ran sooner is surprising.

[@SueProv]

​@@alexng4 I guess any species with legs is born running or walking according to your logic

[@lavenderblue489]

I grew up with a boy who raised a foal like your daughter is doing. He was always in the field with it from the moment it was born. It turned into the best horse ever. It knew what to do with every rider. He could ride it without any halter , bridle etc. Any kid could ride it. It wouldnt move out of a walk for young kids, but would fly like anything for the owner. Your daughter is so lucky to have this experience.

[@2CalaLilly]

What a little firecracker that foal is. Congratulations. She's a real beauty. It's wonderful to see Ozark laying down with her baby and your daughter. How very special is that. Heartwarming.

I am a mom. This was so beautiful. So tender is the mama to the new baby horse. We can leann something about love and family. Animals are a great example of what we humans sometimes lack!

[@optimisticcosmic]

The mother pawing at the baby horse almost encouraging it to get up is an unbelievable sight. Probably her instincts knowing the quicker its mobile, the less chance a predator can kill it. Amazing.

[@spiderlily4386]

We've all scratched our bellies when we were big, pregnant and stretched out! Ozark is no different 😂

[@marionberry6909]

This is absolutely one of the most heartwarming videos on youtube. Thank you for making an old man feel like there is hope for our country with young folks like you around.

[@katherine2245]

Feeling the same!

[@Ckalman7771]

Me too!

[@jenifereddings6190]

I can't believe how fast HAPPY was out of the womb!!

[@ohwhatelse]

For a mare to allow someone to cuddle her newborn & to be between them is the definition of complete 'trust'. & you're already teaching that to the fal. & If that mare wasn't ok with that young lady being in there she'd darn sure let you know it! Good job! Great mare & foal.

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

Your daughter did a wonderful job training Ozark. All the love and time caring for Ozark has paid off

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

In a strong trusting relationship. To be able to sit with a newborn foal and love on it and mama not at all concerned. WOW! This is also a testament to you and JR, what great parents you are because you raised her to be a kind loving human. Good job to everyone! Love the name for this little foal, so appropriate and a touch of humor in it. ❤😊 Blessing to all the animals on your farm and to your whole family.

[@user-rh8ug3qi9t]

まだまだ これからでしょう。 きっと、こちらの母馬は、これが初産ではなかったかもしれませんし、お嬢様の普段のお世話の心配りと、もしかすると以前の出産の時にも傍に居たのかもしれないですよね。お馬さんは、その時にもお嬢様が傍に居てくれたことを嬉しく覚えていて、この時も、まるで傍に居てね、って、話しかけてるみたいだった。家族が増えるときの、不安と心配とドキドキの楽しみと、そうしてからだのシンドイ消耗する事と。 ともに健康でともに働くことに安全でありますように。 ご加護はいつもひかりを届けて下さいますように。

[@elainemcatee4347]

The activity of that baby is an absolute indicator of how well cared for that Mama was during the pregnancy, you are all to be commended for taking such great care of those 2 girls. Good job by all!

[@sylviekins]

Wow! Becca is 15, what a truly amazing girl she is- her bond with her horse, and instincts and confidence, I am sure you are very proud of her. Thank you for sharing this lovely video ❤❤❤🇦🇺

[@brianmorin7197]

Thank you very much for allowing this wonderful birth to be available for those who have never experienced farm life and have never seen the birth of this beautiful young one.

[@ckswat77zz51]

I saw the live birth & it was amazing to watch again. I can see why Becka is so in love with Happy Little Accident. She’s certainly the second Mama to her. How wonderful to actually see how much love & trust Ozark has for her. I’m also Happy to see the longer clip of Becka with Happy on her lap & Mama relaxing. Ozark is probably thrilled to have Becka around so as a new mom she can get a few relaxing moments in. Happy sure is Happy. They’re both beautiful as can be💕🐴

[@lindadipasquale-lk2sl]

Becca learned a lot from her dad and Happy is a beautiful little filly!!!❤❤😊😊

[@kaleadreamaremylife7688]

Omg I could literally cry right now. Ozark is the most protective mama I’ve ever seen and Happy Little Accident is PRECIOUS!!!! Your daughter is a horse whisperer and the way these gorgeous animals love her speak volumes of what a kind and gentle soul Becca is ❤️❤️

[@CeltycSparrow]

I think its beautiful that the mare calmed right down when your daughter joined her. She felt safe with your daughter there and she relaxed. I think she just wanted Becca to be there with her in this special moment, as she had her foal and that's why she was trying to get out.

[@Lil_Nuggles]

Awwww! The bond between Ozark and Becca is so sweet! It made me cry tears of joy! The way Ozark looks back and sees Becca checking on the filly is precious. 💕 Way to go, Becca 🥰

[@ledraslavik7868]

So glad you named her Happy! It seems perfect for her. 😊

I love how Ozark laid down by Becka and Happy. She totally trusts Becka with her sweet foal. Becka is an amazing horse woman! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@onlytymewilltell]

Awe your right .. theres absolutely *NO DOUBT* about Ozark trusting becca to THE FULLEST! Especially when i seen her lay down next to becca and the foal bc most mares I've seen are usually always fiercely protective of their foal in the beginning- no matter who's around!! So very special 💟 THANKS FOR SHARING!!

[@beverleymeyer7899]

OMG what a sweet baby and so full of spunk. Congrats Becka !

[@missykowalewski]

Her instincts, especially as a first time mama were on point. That baby is in good hands. Nature is amazing. From where I’m sitting I think Ozark wanted a little lap time too.

[@kawythowy867]

The mother instinctualy 'paws' at the baby to get it on its feet....they had to throughout history as predators would come quickly after birth due to the smell...:amazing . Beautiful video. Nice job momma. Momma has a new toy. So cute. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@wendyconnew6458]

I love the name, used to love Bob Ross painting and his happy little accident so the Foals name is so apt. Congrats on her delivery.

@@homesteadhorsemanship While watching the Live birth and seeing Happy stand up so quickly, it reminded me of the birth of Secretariat, aka, Big Red, who also stood up very quickly after birth... He had the biggest heart... literally... to please his beloved, to run like no other with a silly personality and intelligent mind... The filly, Happy, is already showing great potential... just like Ozark has proven and will continue to do so... definitely some amazing genes passed down... 🦋💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🦋

Little Miss Happy is amazing. She is so playful and seeking attention just two days old on the Patreon video 💗

[@joesmith3501]

That was beautiful. The trust of the horse toward the young lady is awesome. I would have been worried but she looked like she knows her horse and her horse knows her. Amazing how they walk 20 minutes after they are born and mother and foal just have the instinct to know what’s going on. Mother Nature is awesome.

My experienced mare's last two foals were up and running minutes after birth. They were huge, looking like three month Olds next to my neighbors new born. Of course my mare was a big Quarter horse, who, according to her former owner, always had a big healthy foal. Your daughter is great with handling her horse. She is a natural horse woman. PS. My mare was a great and trustworthy riding horse too.
