Nothing Scarier Than This!

[@heartlesskitten88]

I love how much Paulie loves these horses. It cannot be easy to work on these rescues that don't have training or have trauma and so many with painful feet. Most farriers would not deal with troubled horses but Paulie treats each one like an individual and makes a plan for them to help them live comfortably and get better if possible. He's a real gem and his skill mixed with his thoughtfulness is so needed in this world.

[@saracollette-iu3ei]

I love how sometimes he picks the horses that have the biggest problems and loves them in adopt them.

[@tiffanytupper8983]

I second this motion!😄

[@MadMakerWorkshop]

@@saracollette-iu3ei well, if you are a farrier then a high maintenance horse for you is at cost. This is true for all crafts and trades. You keep the nice but defective ones(whatever might be your thing, from horses to computers) because you know how to care for them..

[@jacquelynmedina5401]

Poor Penny! People are so selfish and impatient. If you don't want to feed a horse while waiting the appropriate amount of time until is safe for them to be started, don't get or keep the horse!! Assholes.

[@sharonhooks9071]

I absolutely love Pauly, best farrier ever! He is tough as nails and his heart is mush.😊. Great job girls.❤️🙏

[@meganmartin2037]

It’s hardly started and I’m crying already. Poor penny!!! Shes beautiful I hope she will be okay I love your whole team. Each any every one of you. The owners. Rae. Her heart for them is amazing. Pauly. He’s the best farrier anyone could have. If I lived one more state over and had horses I’d pay bank to have him be my horses fairrier. My 3 girls have fallen in love with horses and love Pauly like I do! Makes my oldest want to work with horses. She’s 9. Thank you for all you guys do. Each and every one of you!!!!

[@s.c.1286]

Agree!! I love to see every episode he is In and. him falling in love with certain horses. Besides him everyone is just freaking awesome! What a team, I keep saying that, at least from what we can see! :D

[@MinkesMom]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Pauly

[@lethalcurves1]

Pauly is great. But, I mean, Pauly, thinks Clinton Anderson is good. CA is a lame copycat hack, IMO. I’ve seen/heard CA saying exactly, verbatim what other trainers say. He copies them. He doesn’t have ANY OF HIS OWN ORIGINAL THOUGHTS, ABOUT HOW/WHAT A HORSE IS HAVING ISSUES ARE‼️ I, also feel that Pony Tales, could use a new barn manager. IMO - Rae just isn’t up to par, OR what Pony Tales needs…IMO. She’s just not a good trainer(IMO), & should either be moved down a notch, or let go. I know of 2 barn managers that would be PERFECT for the job of barn manager. Either of them, or both, would be GREAT FITS‼️ AND, WOULD NOT WANT ANY PAY OR EXPECT IT - BOTH of them would volunteer‼️‼️They BOTH have UNCONDITIONAL LOVE FOR HORSES, & BOTH HAVE YEARSSSSS OF EXPERIENCE UNDER THEIR BELTS…WESTERN, and ENGLISH. I WISH they lived near us, but, they don’t. I would definitely trust them with our horses. And, trusting ANYONE with OUR HORSES?? Is virtually IMPOSSIBLE for me to do. But, I WOULD trust these 2 ladies. JUST A SUGGESTION😉. If interested or want more info please email me at: [e-mail]

[@kierstenk7678]

That end is quite scary, but since you already posted about them , I am glad the down horse is doing okay :)

[@SuzanneHinds-q3k]

Loved the patience with the little donkey Usher, he responded really nicely to what is actually very scary, giving up control of his foot.

[@rachealsmith5138]

Oh my lands! It breaks my heart to see that poor pregnant mare in such shape and to see that horse down!! God bless y’all for being such a wonderful rescue!!😊❤

Hope the horse that went down is ok, thankyou for rescuing so many, no matter what they will have a better life thanks to you. Bless you all ❤❤❤❤

[@robinfranklin7407]

[@keojiabrown6807]

I always think he must have a lot of horse money😂

[@annepettit3855]

Farriery at cost of materials must be a big help 😅

[@anyabar1987]

I know at one time he was brainstorming how he could help pony tales out so maybe once some horses get better with foot management...

[@KaivalaJenva]

Idk about money but pualie clearly has the compassion and seems to go for long term maintenance ones I suspect he feels he can truly help and may need care more often than the normal situation allows for he definitely has a lucky family and some lucky horses. Glad the one horse is okay it definitely is a scary situation

[@cindyl542]

It seems that he takes horses that need long term extensive care to their feet saving Pony Tails a ton of money.

[@annmurry1628]

Try braking the donkeys to saddle and to carry a pack saddle that way they will have something to do and they can help carry things for their owners if they need to go where cars can not travel

[@janeheary7996]

OMG that auction looked so bad! It was like being transported back to 1900s and watching Black Beauty at his lowest point😢.. Thank you Pony Tails❤❤❤❤

[@lindahollister5530]

You all do a great job on all horses taken in.🎉🎉🎉. Stubborn ice ice.

[@loisblais3431]

Gosh look how far you’ve come ! 🎉 I remember the first time I saw you all, leading* the horse through your husbands garage! Well done. Great passion! So impressed and happy for you and all the 1000 some horses you’ve saved. Good job. 🇨🇦

[@ninakaiser2930]

Miss Penny is a beauty - and so sweet! I hope she will be ok. I am so glad you saved 312, I was really hoping you would. Those auctions must be so trying on you - and of course on the horses as well. So glad I read that the horse that went down is ok! 😮

[@mandycoetzee8074]

Always love watching Paulie. He loves the horses and explains everything very well. The trainers need to get special training for handling these horses and donkeys. Definitely learn from Steve Young. Might be good idea to give us a run down of the horse or donkey you working with and what you trying to achieve with the animal. Makes for intetesting content.

[@lindayaya59]

❤vanilla ice needs more of a release, when he turns and looks at you. You will find he loves and understands what your asking. Licks can help with feet. But look at some of steve youngs horse videos. 😊❤

[@PonyTalesRefuge]

Donkeys and horses are different! They typically decide when they want to like you, you can't really make them lol.

[@hs5167]

When I was a kid (40 years ago), our ponies and horses never had these issues. We just rode for fun. I’m just wondering if hoof and leg issues are more prevalent these days because of breeding or because of the sports people engage in?

[@KaivalaJenva]

Probably a bit of all of the above. Wild horses don't usually end up with these issues because they live on the run but off pavement. As case for alot of the Amish ones seen they spend years on pavement with shoes that they try to extend life of with things like borum doesn't do anything to help the horse itself. Breeding will just depend on the actual breed where a few awful things like the 2 muscle paralysis ones seen in quarter breeds that unfortunately give a beefy look at a cost of horse comfort like mayflower had. And remember the sanctuary looks for horses with problems specifically that they hope they can give them a more comfortable life if possible vs a short miserable life crammed into meat trucks.

[@dreamcatcher3861]

I’m the same age as you and am from the uk. We only ever saw these issues here highlighted in cruelty cases and seizures made by animal protection organisations in Pony magazines. It was going on but hidden as we didn’t have internet and access to these ‘throw away society’ auctions. The uk have much much stricter rules for equine welfare because they’re considered pets here. There’s no overbreeding here, (apart from behind the scenes in the racing industry) a whole other sad story. With lack of regulations, no laws protecting the horses and unscrupulous people taking advantage,the extremely sad thing now is that, if there’s a quick buck to be made by someone, they’ll do it. The Amish over breed drafts, sometimes interbred, then break them to ride and drive far too early, then sell them. Genetic issues arise or issues caused by breaking and working the poor animals too young and the new owner then realises they can’t use the horse, so rather than do the right thing by their animal and retire it under veterinary care, dump it at another auction for down payment on another horse….and on and on it goes. There are so many horse ranches in America, they’re treated like cattle by some and until laws protecting horses in the USA change, the cruelty, overbreeding, genetic issues and heartbreak will continue. It’s disgusting.

[@terrifiorelli9819]

The poor drafts always make me sad. Worked until they can’t ,then disposed.

[@AreYouKittenMeRtNow]

9:36 omg 🥹🩵✨ take her home Pauly!!!! 😍 already bonding! She’s a special girl, what an absolute disgrace to start a horse to young and RUIN something so beautiful ❤️‍🩹 Poor halo, what a shame but glad your vet is so straightforward and oriented toward quality of life. And that poor draft mare… ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 Re lunging Jade: If I was a horse I’d be very confused about what I was being asked to do right there. Your trainer (?) definitely has some knowledge but she has a lot more to learn, can she go study with anyone like at a workshop etc? It’s a lifelong skill set to build for sure. Just to be clear, I’m not trying to be critical; I think it’s an education deficit not a talent/skill deficit ❤

[@agfillion1]

I think Jade has a personal hair stylist 😂❤

[@kimmarievan-ever6599]

My heart breaks for beautiful Halo.. It's clear she is in SO much pain.. in a way, I'm glad your excellent vet said it as it is and that she hasn't and won't have any quality of life even with all the work that you could do with her..lets be honest she can't even stand for Pauly to do her feet..it has to be that last act of kindness..safe passage over the 🌈 bridge Halo...you were let down big time by us humans ..Fly High beautiful girl..Shine Bright 🌠🌃..😢.. oh my goodness, how can you leave the video like that !!.. I'm going to worry about that poor downed horse.. To be honest, l thought it was going to be the last girl who could hardly walk that was down not one of the dark ones...oh my heart breaks for some of those horses there..those drafts still in their dirty worn tack..their feet in shocking states..they just don't give a 💩 about them .they look so beaten down by their life..I'd buy them just to get them out of there and not be transported to the next auction..some with their hip bones sticking out..all their feet in shocking shape..I'm just upset seeing their pain and their 💩ty lives..😢😢.. lets get to sweet Pemny..and her new owner Pauly..😂😂 when the vet said she could be ok with regular farrier carer and bar alluminium shoes..exactly what Pauly said..yep.. we know where she is going..to get the best hoof care she's ever had. ..or ever likely too..😂 YAY.. Usher🫏 has come on nicely..Mr Vanilla is still a bit Ornery😂.🫏..he's one of those that's going to make you earn it..cheeky boy..hope Bint and Missy and Iris and Martha get adopted..fingers crossed 🤞..now just 🙏 praying for the downed horse..can't believe you're going to make us wait..!!

[@kathleenvadney6217]

I’m wondering if your trainer would be open to attending a clinic for trainers? This could be a really good investment for the organization that would pay big dividends for all the rescued equines. There’s a Pete Rose that does KZbin videos and Steve Young. There might even be some online training courses.

[@KaivalaJenva]

I pretty sure Rose has online courses. I love Steve but it might be a bit expensive to fly him to the state's but I alao feel his short time work would be the most useful since he might have only hours to spend on a horse rose usually has sessions

[@lindayaya59]

❤steve young. Just watch some of his videos. Awesome trainer. In my opinion the best. Next to buck branahan

[@AreYouKittenMeRtNow]

Ha I just made this suggestion. She would really benefit from learning from someone like the men you mentioned, I think it’s a knowledge/experience deficit not a talent/skill deficit. She misses a lot of cues and gives some confusing messaging sometimes but I think she would pick a lot of skills up quick if shown by the right person and it would help everyone out.

I know there are Amish communities around the state of Wisconsin, but I am realizing there are far more! Where I grew up, I knew they are around but didn't experience many encounters with them. Same where I live now. Seeing all those draft horses at that sale and all the drafts recused by Pony Tales, boggles the mind! Most Amish don't treat their animals well and it is disgusting knowing they don't care about the animals! Whether it is cattle, horses or any other animal! Same goes with Horse Plus Humane Society in Tennessee! Didn't realize there are a lot of Amish in their area and that is why Horse Plus rescues a lot of drafters from time to time! Very happy Pony Tales, Horse Plus and other rescues are saving horses from the slaughter pipeline! Hope someday horses cannot be shipped to Mexico and Canada to be slaughtered! It needs to stop!

Again, watching your videos always interesting, sometimes sad, and sometimes just WILD! Question, why all of a sudden are you rescuing drafts? Nothing against them, but isn't it harder to re-home them? Then of course there is the amount of feed they need and poor Paulie with the feet that so many do not get the proper care for, no training for the stocks! Are there no Drafts only rescues in your area? Just wondering is all.

We have always rescued drafts. It is actually easier to re-home them than most horses lol!

I started watching you all when Tawnee and her hubby visited you there , I don't think you even had the barn then...but anyway, I think its wonderful what you do and I congratulate what you do with all my heart. I think I was just upset when I asked why all the drafts all of a sudden, because Paulie and some of you were in danger with the one that got all tangled up in the vet stock.
