RESCUING OLIVER! Auction Horse’s Journey Home❤️

[@lilbitofjoy6130]

Oliver coming out of the trailer into the barn.. the look in his eyes. The way he looked around at everything.. it was like a sigh of relieve for him. His look in his eyes for me was, FINALLY I am home. I was not here when the donations were being taken. I have just found you today and I am watching from the beginning. During your interview will Bill and Ramona, I stopped immediately and subscribed to Patreon. Bless you for saving him and bless every single person who was here a year ago to donate and raise the money for him in a record 18 hour time. BLESS ALL OF YOU !!!!!!!!!!

[@karylgammon8760]

Thank goodness for people with huge hearts. I pray all the horses left behind are saved.

[@jossetteking4967]

I will never be able to thank you enough for saving dear Oliver. I got teary-eyed when I saw the conditions in which our boy has been living, and sobbed when I heard about the mare expiring while you were there and the other horse being down. Oliver has a chance now. Even if he has some health issues, he will, at least, be loved and well taken care of. I love how much care went into fixing up his new stall. Very sweet. Oliver has managed to capture a great many hearts in a short period of time. God bless him and you and your lovely family.

[@nikolap.9963]

God bless you & your family... KARMA is the payment for you guys... may you guys find peace and joy in all your life adventures.

Just read your note. Horrified that Mare expired. Saw the horse on the ground. Believe in God. But also believe in Karma. For those people, who did that to wonderful animals. Hope Karma gets them. Big time.

[@colemercille-hs6rs]

For anyone reading this. I got the opportunity to meet these nice people and see Oliver and person today at the vet clinic. So great that after everything, he is getting the best care possible. Look forward to updates.

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Hey there!!! It was good to meet you today😊

[@lumanensoni5395]

Those poor horses!!!! My heart hurts for them all, I can't believe anyone could do that to such wonderful animals! I am glad the authorities know of this, and that you have been able to save Oliver from such a fate!!! Now I pray that all of them can be saved, and that oliver will be able to recover and thrive!!!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@1980bwc]

I doubt very seriously that it's intentional. They are most likely financially overwhelmed, just trying to feed and care for so many of them. I know thats not fair for the horses, but what do you do? There's unfortunately way more needy animals out there, than there are people to take them in. I'm sure they are doing the best they can with what they have available to them. I know what it costs to feed just one horse and its astronomical. So I cant imagine what it costs to feed and provide healthcare for dozens of them.

[@MA-mh1vs]

​@@1980bwc She would not have been overwhelmed if she was selling the horses at a fair price. Demanding top dollar for horses in extremely poor health is why she is sitting on a hundred horses she can't take care of properly.

Let me not let my thoughts be out loud on that evil women which well for the good of all of Oliver's friends left behind they all of them need to be removed & never ever let her evilness be upon any animals again especially horses which have died on her property. Oliver's court proof of them being animal abusers. And Medical vet x-ray evidence is proof of those horses even the babies have what Oliver has. F***, those poor horses. 🤬👿👺Glad you got Oliver out of there. Hey all let's start a Help Oliver's Friends go fund them account.

[@anntaplin4960]

Well done for saving Oliver. I worked with horses for over 30 years and have saved a few myself. I taught riding for most of those years. My best save was an Arab who was going to be shot at 3 years old because he was deemed uncontrollable. Had him for over 20 years. RIP Bootman xxx

[@tharris4169]

💕🐎💕

[@francescagilbert9034]

JR, what you and your daughter did last weekend was nothing short of heroic! It was very, very well done! I live in England and I can't imagine driving such a long way in a day! I think that might be like driving from London to Athens, Greece! You can't get much further as there's no more land left in Europe! But Oliver is worth all that driving; what a truly sweet horse! You got him out of a terrible situation, and I am sure that he really could not be in better hands. I shall pray lots that the Lord will continue to lay His hands on Oliver and give him healing, and that his tests and vet visit will go well. Thank you for saving him. It grieved me to see the state of him at the auction, and to see how he and the other horses were treated at the place in Texas. But with all that love around him from you and your family, a beautiful clean stable all his own, really good quality food and water and as much as he needs, and professional vet care, you will see him go from strength to strength day by day. God willing, within a few months he will be so much stronger and enjoying life. ❤‍🩹🐴🤠❤🐎

[@michelleshaw1211]

I agree, it made me very sick to my heart and stomach to see those farm conditions and poor Oliver's worse condition. Just unbelievable. At least he has been rescued and will receive all the love and care he deserves and needs. It's worth every penny for him, Sweet Sad Oliver. Thanks to the entire family at HH and the Utube Family for saving Oliver. A Colorado Mountain Grandma USA 💜✌️💕🐴🌞👋🇬🇧

[@DeeE101]

It is difficult to find the right words to express how heavy my heart is when I see the dire conditions that people put animals in. I am thankful that Oliver is now in your care, his life is about to change for the better. I am also glad that all of you made it home safely and I can’t wait to watch his transformation. I don’t know very much about horses, so watching his transformation will be an educational experience for me. Thank you 💖❤️❤️

[@voyaristika5673]

I'm with you. Learning about horses is really interesting, and they're so noble and beautiful. My introduction to their channel was Ozark giving birth to Happy. So touching! ❤

Don’t Know who Needs to see this, Oliver is in the Finest Care that any Animal could ever be. I’ve known Jr Rosa and his wife (Emori) and kids for sometime now and he and his Family are Awesome Folks I even sold them the Black Lab you will see in some of his Videos I am the Owner of Doolittle Diesel Repair and Tire here in Missouri about 10 miles from the Rosa Farm.. Gonna be Real Honest I don’t even like horses and Oliver’s Journey to The Rosa Farm has Really Touched me Enough that I’m Gonna go See him this weekend I can Assure you anything y’all donate to this Fine Family will Go to what it is Meant For to help Oliver if anyone ever gets in this area of Central Missouri y’all Really Need to Meet the Entire Rosa Family, I’m so Proud of what Jr is doing and has Accomplished over the last Few Years.

His eyes are shining brighter! He knows he is finally home. Thank you for providing that home for him. Get well soon sweet boy.

[@donnabarg3315]

These awful people passed Oliver out of the Missouri sale because they did not get enough money for him. They took him to an auction in Texas. to get more. That is why J.R had to drive all the way to Texas to get him. Thank GOD for J.R and all of you wonderful people who saved his life.

I don’t wish bad for the people you rescued him from, I just pray things are handled and dealt with appropriately for the horses and animals they are suppose to be caring for. God bless you all! 🙏🏻 Prayers for all, two legged or four legged!!

[@billwebb3371]

I’m sitting here almost in tears, watching you unload Oliver at his new home. I know if anybody can nurse him back to health you can. Praying there’s no permanent issues with his back end. He just looks so sad and confused but i know that all that will go away soon. He’s home and safe. God bless you.

[@bh1264]

Bad News-No actual surprises at the vet regarding Oliver's blood test results & his additional health issues. But we expected these things. However, I believe Oliver is in the best hands he could be in. Good News-I have no doubt that Oliver will now receive the best veterinary care he can get in the time frame that he needs to have his medications, supplements, feed, constant care, monitoring, etc. Oliver has so many people praying for him. He really does have the best chance for a better, healthier life now where he will be loved & in his new 'Fur-ever Home'! We all are praying for his recovery!

[@Maggie19701]

Man, the back story of what you encountered at the seller's property is just heartbreaking. I hope those who are profiting off these horses while keeping them in miserable conditions, deserve nothing more than a jail cell & hefty fines. You are so thoughtful to think of how the rough roads would cause poor Oliver who is already in pain, more discomfort. After making sure you were not just a flipper who cares nothing about the horses, I just subscribed. It's obvious from this video how much you care about the animals.

I hope Oliver gets better soon and his condition with the hind legs can be improved. It’s really shocking to see how much weight he lost since you saw him at the auction. I wished there would have been a way to rescue him without paying the seller so much money and supporting their business. But I understand that wasn’t possible. Greetings from Berlin, Germany

[@lanetpresler423]

I must say I totally respect ur professionalism when dealing with Oliver's previous owners.

[@kimmarievan-ever6599]

It must have been hard..but he had to get Oliver out of there and if that owner had been peed off with jr then they wouldn't have been able to bring him away from that godawful place.. I used to go out and collect cats that people said they couldn't cope with anymore..well some of the 💩 holes I went in and the condition of the cats were diabolical..but I had to smile and be polite to get those cats out of there to safety.. then once in my car I could breathe out ..when we couldn't get all of the cats because they wanted to keep certain ones i tried convincing them..if that didn't work then we took what we could and give them a ring weekly to check up..otherwise we had friends who work for RSPCA and Cats Protection.. they used to then follow up and confiscate the cat..obviously only if the house wasn't suitable or the cat was ill or at risk. So you have to be nice to get the animal..then you can alert authorities..just like Oliver's case..🇬🇧💞✝️🙏👍👏👏🐎🐾🐾🐈
