Little Foot's Story

[@yankeedoodledarling9232]

When things don't add up, this remarkable team always finds out why. I rescued a neglected thoroughbred who was close to dangerous because she has so many undiagnosed problems due to racing. It took lots of exploring and patience to get the the bottom of what caused her problems, but we got there and she is now healthy, beautiful and the best behaved horse in her herd of retirees. Thank you Horse Plus for always going the extra mile for the animals!

[@helenafriessen2234]

Thank you so very much for Rescue and caring for these beautiful 🏇 🏇 🏇 🏇 😊❤❤❤❤❤

Congratulation Little Foot ... you are definitely in the right place! So glad you got rescued by the right people! And so glad you got the medical care needed - good on Dr Gina for finding the problem!

[@cynthiacarter514]

5:23 This is a great example why the team of two vets is beneficial.

[@bcgrote]

Being able to do the xrays and bloodwork are so awesome. And of course, Dr Gina's careful exam worked magic for Little Foot! ❤

[@maggiefreeman6513]

Great result for these two horses. Thanks so much for helping them ❤

[@lindag4484]

I love that you help the horses enough to give them a second chance at a good, forever home. Cheers to you all at HPHS!

[@ranaepagett2893]

I prayed for you and cried with you!

[@kimmarievan-ever6599]

This just shows that his previous owner didn't bother to find out why Little Foot was losing weight.. Instead, they just shipped him off to auction, and thankfully, Horse Plus got this sweet boy and got to the bottom of his problems..and now he has a lovely home with his buddy Drifter..amazing..🇬🇧💕🙏✝️👏👍🐎🐎🇺🇸

[@kristiwetsel9531]

Amazing , good luck to drifter and little foot ❤

[@ranaepagett2893]

[@Jan-2020]

Sweet story and they both look wonderful.

[@PetitFeu-vw3yo]

Little Foot and Drifter may you live your best lives with your new family.

[@patriciamuskevitsch8359]

Arrow grass is no joke. This ol boy could have died had you not removed those things. Great save!

[@rebeccacarlson9166]

What a great comeback story!!! Thank you HPHS!!!

[@aprilchapman2758]

Poor little foot his mouth was sore, and such a gentle boy. Great team work ❤.

[@YvonneHuddart]

I would like very much to see follow-up stories of how the rescues are doing after a few months with their forever families so we can see how much happier and healthier they are and the roles they take on at their new homes. Please and thank you for all you do for these beautiful beings.

[@auroratransparency]

I say that all the time! ❤❤

[@ErikaDeyzel-yf1ot]

[@francineherron1940]

I love love love Happy endings ❤❤❤. So glad Dr Gina discovered the thorns and ulcers in little foots mouth, i can't imagine how painful it must have been for him, no wonder he couldn't eat. So glad they both found wonderful homes 😊

[@christinaveeckman111]

Bless you ❤️

[@stardust949]

Love a Happy Outcome!

[@deborahrich2666]

He’s lucky he found you!

[@patriciasmith3973]

Great team effort!

[@adelstander4900]

Loved Littlefoot from the moment I saw him. Reminds me of my deceased boy, Alphie.

[@carolinechew2432]

I would Love so much to see progress on Little Foot from the owners. . . Do you have enough staff to do some Updates and Photos of adopted out horses?!? I think that it is a Critical part of “Completing the Circle”. Respectfully, and Please?!?

[@ronallen6578]

Updates on any or all of the horses would be much appreciated 😊😊

[@christinematton4125]

Thank you 😢❤

[@patriciafarran9742]

It’s nice to hear a good outcome. I haven’t watched for a while. I was actually having bad dreams about the horses. I kept seeing all the horribly sick and injured horses in my sleep. I pray for rescuers. 🙏 It takes a lot of compassion and a very thick skin to keep doing this year after year and keep it together emotionally and mentally. Thank you HPHS for doing what you do to help save horses. ❤🤗

[@iceangel1701d]

Oh Little Foot! God's hand was on you the day they brought you to HPHS (: Well done guys.

[@puccipower]

Yayyy!!! I am so happy to hear of a happy ending for Little Foot. I'm not going to lie.. I was terrified it might be a sad ending.

[@lisagreenlee]

Thank you

[@emesisxx]

❤❤

[@kathleengoodyear]

I love it!

[@CrimFerret]

Given what you deal with trying to rehab some of the horses, it's nice to get an easy win once in a while.

[@ChantalsCritters]

Great video guys

[@dreamcatcher3861]

I’d love to see an update on these guys, do you think littlefoots owners would mind sending update pics as he heals? It would be so good to see how these boys transform. ❤ Well done Dr Gina and Dr Lydia on finding those ulcers, poor boy must have been in agony. You guys are absolutely wonderful. 🙌🏼🫶🏻

[@alisong2328]

Poor Little Foot! I used to get awful mouth sores. It turns out I am allergic to sodium lauryl sulfate, an ingredient in most toothpastes. I switched to Biotene, and no more sores!

[@NaunetteMartin]

I like want you guys do for the horse Nanette 🐎

[@lesleybunce9848]

❤❤❤

[@Kay-ng2uk]

Can you please show the whole removal process?

[@ronallen6578]

I didn't see a trailer in that clip. Were they coming back or did they arrange for you or another party to deliver those 2 🐎🐎🐎??

[@jeanadams1667]

I wonder if foxtail caused his ulcers?

[@aunttpathfinder5049]

❤❤❤ Is there any way you can start adding "after" photos? Maybe months or so after?

[@jff1813]

No wonder the poor horse was so thin.

[@taiafrohman4163]

Could we ever see any pictures of horses after placed in homes

[@soloflyr1]

Why do horses get ulcers? My mare suffered with ulcers

[@shannonbain2811]

So weird thing is that my dog actually has ulcers in his mouth as well mainly above his teeth or below I guess long story short he’s had to get half his teeth removed and we’re still trying to figure out what is this an internal medicine specialist and dental veterinary group are involvedbecause he also has chronic nose bleeds, which I don’t think the nose blades are the mouth issue issues but still pretty major

[@Vincent.Valentine.]

Foxtails?

[@jff1813]

Foxtails are a type of grass with seeds that can embed themselves in the flesh of an animal and cause infection as they did here.

[@dianebarron9510]

How do I send a donation in the mail?

[@dianebarron9510]

What is the address?

[@jeanettecoleman-mz7ie]

6:28 youre actually riding that POOR bag of bones, what horses put up with!🤬

[@alycewich4472]

Light riding helps a horse put on muscle where there wasn't any. A trip or 2 around a small round pen isn't going to harm him.

[@isaT]

​@@alycewich4472 His spine is protruding so much that it probably hurts to bear weight. I think they should have let him gain a little more weight before riding.

[@AccidentallyOnPurpose]

From what it looks it seems he gained a lot of weight before riding. His hips and spine are far less pronounced in the videos of the riding. The adopters probably aren't going to be riding any of them intensively until they are much farther recovered, that was just to get them adopted. Horse plus relies on finding homes fast for horses that are cleared.

[@daisyle1203]

Horse racing needs to be banned as well as Sea World and places that use animals for entertainment. Pony rides, buggy rides are others that need to go. Animal abuse abounds at all of these places.

[@cm1642]

Not a very good initial exam!

[@isaT]

Honestly, I was a little shocked to see you ride the horse while in this emaciated condition, that doesn't seem right to me🥲
