You’ve done such amazing work with him…he’s a credit to you, your love and your patience. I’m hoping you find the very best home possible for this darling boy. 😢❤️🙏

I'm sorry to say that I feel sad and disappointed for Farouk that he has to go, and I can't help feeling that Bella has taken his place. I sincerely hope he is fortunate to find another home as good as he has had with you. Circumstances change, I appreciate that, but I can't help feeling sorry for Farouk. 😢

@melodyfeddeler6434 Hi Melody 🙂 👋 Thanks for your comment, and sorry I didn't see it at the time. Only saw it now, because of the latest comment here. At the beginning of me watching this Channel, Apollo started off as my favourite horse. But as I got to watch, Faroukie's training and ageing, he became my favourite horse. He has been so mature, and settled these last couple of year's. And much more confident, because of his training and him trusting his only rider, Tara. I hope Farouk, isn't fretting too much. He would likely be unsettled, because his familiarity of being with Apollo (Especially so) / Bella, and Tara / Rens / and even Gary, are not in his life anymore. He isn't my horse. But over time I grew to respect, admire, care about him, and love him, I guess. I am really sad, to see him go. But I am also grateful, for having his company for several year's. I don't think, we are ever going to see him again. As the new owner, wants to be anonymous. I was hoping that whomever the new owner was, that they may consider starting a Faroukie Channel. As I would have followed his Channel, as well.

Sad but not unexpected. You and Rens are both very active but, age (gravity) gets us all. Farouk with his endurance can do so much still. He is still a pretty young chap. Good Luck and hope he finds a great home.

I have to admit that it feels to me like Bella has replaced Farouk.😢 It was more than good for Bella to come to you and I am happy to follow her progress. But I'm also so sorry for Farouk. He is sensitive and certainly needs a nice person he can trust. I hope you will find that person for him. It was clear that three horses would become too many some day None of us are getting younger.😔 Farouk probably has the most need of exercise of the three and I can understand the decision. I really hope that Farouk finds his second heartfelt person ❤

Your viewers will certainly miss him but hope we get updates on his next adventure in life. As for me who’s watched for several years I will remember all those special times such as when he flew off down the road, over came that noisy bridge to walk over, showing another horse how to go through the water bravely. His enjoyment for life, riding out, speed and endurance and heart attack hill and heart attack mountain. Not to forget all his awards for endurance. He holds a special place in all our hearts ❤❤❤🐎🐎🐎

So many things about Farouk remind me of my last little horse Mischief (not full arab). I would love to be able to offer him a home on my own land here in Italy. In case you're wondering, I'm British from Derbyshire. Unfortunately I live alone, have to work and need to re-fence and repair my stable, which will take time 😟. Dear Farouk is used to everything being perfect. It breaks my heart the thought of not seeing him and he's not even mine 😢. I can't imagine how difficult this decision was for you. He's a very, very special boy and needs calm surroundings where his big heart will be truly appreciated 💓.

A great owner is one who prioritizes their animals needs so highly! Hugs! Isn’t easy.

I know in the horse world they are got then are moved on at some point..but I can’t help thinking of him missing the others ,it’s like a dog in some ways although close but not as close as a dog who lives in doors ,so we have a close connection to a horse but not say as much as a dog as to compare..I can’t help feeling he will miss his buddies though and that’s the sad bit as many on here have almost feel farouk is their horse in a virtual way..I know as we get older looking after a horse is time consuming and we are physically not able to do so much in looking after them,and the cost escalates..we’ll we miss him..I hope u get a decent home where he will be looked after to the standard he’s accustomed too,.. 😥

So so sad. Farouk is such a beauty! Going to miss seeing him.

I’m sad to hear this. As an older rider, I would have kept the gelding and gotten rid of the mare. A young mare seems much more problematic. He will make an excellent endurance horse for someone.

While I was devastated by the news, I have always wondered how you managed to ride all three and especially in such long events. Life and age happen but I know he can find as good a home as he deserves. I’m very fond of him.

Gosh if I didn’t have my lad I’d love him. But my current bff would be very upset to have another to compete for my attention. I hope he gets a home that treats him as well as you have. X

Just read all the comments and realise that I'm not the only lady of "a certain age" in tears 😢😢😢. What a difficult decision Tara, but as we get older we have to embrace change (easier said than done 😂). I truly hope you will find a new owner who will care for him as well as you do. I am sure there will be someone out there just waiting to give him a loving new home. ❤

I would take Farouk in a heartbeat, but I have two horses already and I live abroad. Both are Arabians, one is Farouk's cousin (they share the same grandsire). She is a bay mare and looks just like Farouk, we love her dearly and she is so loyal and takes care of me in the saddle. You can't go wrong with Marwan al Shaqab's bloodline - He passes on his intelligence, beauty and temperament to his babies and grandbabies. Someone is going to be very lucky to have a horse like Farouk!

Farouk getting a new home makes me said too. I know you Tara have been working really hard keeping all the horses happy, and you have looked kind of run down with the effort. I worry about you. The one thing I can feel good about is that you and Rens will find the best home for him. Farouk is a great horse, well trained and in great condition. He will make someone very happy. You all take care and stay safe. Gwen from Ohio

I am so sorry that you have to give him up, but I truly understand! My husband is 92 and in poor and declining health,so the farm work as well as 24/7 nursing falls to me. We have 50 acres to keep up and I am a pretty fair ranch hand, but it can get trying! I pray that you find the perfect loving knowledge home for your dear boy. Will hold you up in prayer and caring thoughts!😢❤❤😊😊

I'm going to be sad that I won't be seeing you two out on rides. But I know you will find a lovely home for him. Farouk reminds me of my horse I had.

Oh my goodness, I'm so sad that you have had to make this decision. You have nurtured Farouk to be a wonderful horse and he deserves the very best 5*plus home. I really hope you can find him somewhere loving and fun and safe. I hope the process isn't too painful for you both. (If I had the means I'd offer myself, but I am at capacity with my 2 liveried babies and my aching bones! xx

Farouk was my favorite of your horses. If I was choose I’d choose Farouk. No room for a horse but I hope he accepts this change it will be a big one. What a sad day I’ve been watching Farouk and Apollo since 2018. 😢
