Saved from shipping to slaughter, the first 3 of 5 rescued Belgian Draft Horses arrive at the farm

[@annjohnson8437]

You guys are making this cruel world a better place, saving one gentle giant at a time. Thank you for giving these horses the retirement they deserve. ❤

[@FletcherFarmsAmarillo]

Thank you! We appreciate your support.

[@laurelbozman6997]

Amen to that. God bless you, Fletcher Farms

[@cathyann1601]

Yes, thank you! They are magnificent. It's wonderful that you give them a place to live out their lives with love and in comfort.💖🥰

[@pegasusa1609]

He is so beautiful 😍 🤩, I love what you do, saving these big babies, and they are babies. I live close to an Amish community in Illinois, and some of the ones I know personally have respected for their animals, especially horses. So when I started seeing these guys years ago in such horrific shape and treated like that, I was appalled to no end 💔 😢 😔 😞 😪 😭. Thank you for saving them 💙 ❤️ 🙏, giant teddy bears in my book!

[@maryjanecooper5666]

Amen ❤

Korbin is huge. You actually don't know how big he is until you stand next to him. He looks to be sweet for a stallion. 😮💕🐎

God bless you for caring and loving these magnificent animals. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

[@vegaslady3732]

Arabella deserves some slack from us humans, doesn't she? Imagine how any animal would act after spending all 20 years of their life on one farm, in the same herd, around the same humans, being repeatedly bred & having to protect foal after foal. Then being separated from this and abandoned in a totally foreign environment & surrounded by multiple other animals who are just as bewildered & scared. Along comes Julie & Corey, and as patient and compassionate as they are, it is still another change to adapt to. She's making progress, & will come to realize that shes safe here, and the other horses are not out to hurt her or her foals. Thank you again J, C, & BHF for the work you all do.

[@cynthiamcgee4829]

God bless you for saving these beautiful horses I just hope all the rest of them get rescued too. 💕🐎

[@bobchonko8771]

Dutch is the man a big brother to Liam my boy and protected the whole heard ❤ 😊. Great job for all you're doing. Best wishes to all.

I remember being rescued at 6 months old! I looked around the agency and saw that all humans were black Irish ☘️ so disappointed when learning the truth that we came in all colors😅

My old mare walked behind our house one summer night & my mom gave her scraps from the garden.. She even learned to open the kitchen window..

[@cynthiamcgee4829]

It just breaks my heart to see the other horses walking up to the gates as you leave the horses past knowing that they're going to be left behind I just hope and pray that other people come in and buy and get those horses. It's just terrific for me to think of what happens to them if they go to slaughter. It's cruel inhuman and horrible. 💔💕🐎🙏

If only ALL the horses you've saved could give ya'll a big hug what a hug that would be ! Hugs from me though BIG THANKS X

He makes me smile every day when he does that!

Arabella might be difficult but she is a beautiful mare. Liam is so stiff, it breaks my heart to watch him walk. But I'm glad he will be able to live his life in a good place. Amelia is very pretty too. You are very brave to take on all these gentle giants.

[@thekatt...]

Just cannot imagine having such a glorious animal, such a deep soul...and sending it to slaughter. So sad an end. Thank you for all you do. 🙏💜🇨🇦

I can’t imagine standing next to such a majestic horse as Korbin… he is magnificent!!❤. I hope one day to see one in person… I think I would love it!!❤. Take care, and thank you for being so great to these rescues!!❤😊

They have landed in heaven - you are their saviours. Thank you for being so caring 👍🏼🇬🇧❤️

[@mollycox8039]

Maybe Anna will show Arabella that this is a wonderful home and that she can calm down!

[@FletcherFarmsAmarillo]

Yes! She is starting to settle down and learn it’s ok…no need to fight.

[@NLNL00]

Amazing Julie, Cory and BHF team! I donated some $ to help with the fundraising. Bless you all! 🙏❤🐴🫏

[@KathyCoker53]

Arabella is a really healthy girl. This last group seen some of the healthiest you've gotten. You are getting quite the herd, I don't see how you can tell all of them apart at a distance LOL.

[@DERAMNONA]

Wonderful to watch and know there are good people like you rescuing magnificent horses like this. Can't wait to see the pregnant Donkey ❤

[@wheatnblue2419]

Love where Arabella approached the horses around the food bin and Liam looks around as if to say’ ‘Sshhh, stop talking about her.’

[@deannaharrell6803]

Arabella might be difficult but she is beautiful mare. Elias has a beautiful head too. You are a brave soul to take on all these horses. I'm so glad Liam will be able to live his life out with you. He makes me sad to watch him walk. Great video. Love to see them all. ❤🫶❤️ NC 🇺🇲

[@charlotterockel-kennedy8913]

I really found this video so interesting, watching you introducing Arabella to the herd, she's a feisty girl 😂 once she settles down she will be so happy to have so many friends. It was amazing how Dutch took control over the situation. I had tears in my eyes to hear that all the new ones are healthy. It's about time you deserve to have a break from getting sick horses, it's so heartbreaking trying to save some of these poor horses that have been so neglected and the cost of it too. You are both angels and heroes for saving these beautiful giants. God bless you Julie and Cory ❤❤❤

[@jacquiepitfield9805]

Thank you for saving these gentle giants. It's reassuring to know they have been given a second chance for a wonderful life with you. Amelia looks the sweetest girl. ❤

Why would anyone want to slaughter such healthy and magnificent creatures. Thankfully you found your calling Julie as you were born for this❤ and the animals see you to.❤

[@1golfer1scooter]

You guys brings tears to my eyes doing what you do. Gentle giants,sad they are dumped like trash. 😢

[@ninakaiser2930]

Oh Boy, Arabelle was something else. Glad she somehow fit in and found a friend in Anna 😅 The new three horses are so lucky like all of your horses! Amelia and Elias are beautiful names. Amelia‘s eyes on the trailer were so defeated and sad. I am so glad she is looking a lot better already! The magic of your farm. Looking forward to meet the other horses and the donkey mama! 😊

[@FletcherFarmsAmarillo]

Yes!!! Arabella is a spicy one! She is calming down and learning her way around. I think they all looked sad on the trailer but have figured out that they are safe.

[@charlotterockel-kennedy8913]

I noticed too that Amelia had the sadest eyes on tge trailer, like she'd given up hope and was expecting the worse. She is one lucky horse to have found the best home on earth ❤❤❤

[@jeannevera8672]

I cannot get enough of your videos, Arebella is most likely very freightened and defensive but you guys understand that and act as the reffery(?) It takes a lot of patience!!!

[@FletcherFarmsAmarillo]

Yes, I think she is scared and doesn’t understand what is happening. She’s starting to calm down and relax.

[@ericakauffman5786]

So special. Great job, you guys. It seems like musical runs and it is wonderful that you observe and provide the safest places for each horse. Special thanks to Cory for his long trips. I have to admit it was nice to get to see Liam 💓

[@RandyCrider-o4v]

it brings tears how they love you Thank you for caring sharing mama l

[@ruthbickerstaffe1915]

Julie, you and Corey are outstanding people. That was a long drive to and from the Auction yard especially with 3 heavyweights. Poor Amelia, I don’t think she was treated very well prior to her coming to your farm. Korben is a gentle Angel. He is so adorable and cut coming to your back door at mealtimes. I am sure he is very happy in his private accommodation and he knows you are right there which he will enjoy as he gets settled in. God Bless you, Corey, and every horse, donkey and cat at your farm.🐴🐴🐴🐾🐾🌠🌠☘️💗💗

I felt so bad for the first of 3 horses you loaded up in your trailer. She looked scared to death and clearly had spent a lot of time crying! Poor girl! Bless you and your husband for devoting all of your time to save these lovely beasts of burden!

She does look sad but she’s doing well. Once they realize they are safe they all brighten up.

Three more beautiful horses saved, can’t wait to meet the other horses next week Julie, what l’ve noticed about most of the horses Julie is that they love being loved on and love being scratched too, most probably something they’ve never had before they came to you, keep up the amazing work you all do, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧

I feel quite overwhelmed watching these wonderful horses, knowing that now they're forever safe, but also Knowing, what would have happened, had they not been rescued. Watching these Kings and Queens on your huge pastures, enjoying life, bonding, eating, no longer having to work - it's just all very moving. ❤️

[@terryt.1643]

Those are such big horses! Seeing Korbin duck to get in the trailer really accented that. Even so Amelia looked so thin… So happy they all will be safe. 🥰💕❤️🐴🐴🐴👍👍

[@nolahorserider]

Seems she may have at one point been low on the totem pole. She was showing dominance to the other horses. So glad she started fitting in. Glad Anna is her close friend. ❤❤❤. Thanks for all you do ❤❤❤

God Bless y,all for saving those beautiful horses grew up with a couple around on the farm. One we could ride . ❤❤❤❤

[@idalolo1]

Ooo. Arabella is being a feisty girl, isn't she? Hopefully, peer pressure from the herd will help! It's kinda like a playground at times! I am SO glad she and Anna have bonded. *Everyone needs a friend!* Loved seeing the first three new kids so much, too. It is so impressive to see how you work out challenges when the horses are stressed. Happy they are in good health. Major props to Dr. Waggoner for her phlebotomy skills, especially! Will look forward to seeing how they ALL blend together over the next few weeks. (Praying that they do!! 😇) Thank you again for sharing all the goings on at Fletcher Farms Amarillo! Love following you so much! You are awesome!

[@cathymyers2473]

God bless fletcher farms!!!!

[@jrc1963]

You can just see the personalities of these 3 right off the bat. Can't wait to see Korbin with the herd once he had his surgery. He is the true meaning of a gentle giant. Now Arabella, I think, just seems like a bewildered & scared girl whose trying not to show weakness to the others. I'm hoping that now that she has a friend in Anna & gets used to everything that she will drastically calm down & fit right in. Julie did want to ask how Liam is doing? He did seem like he was struggling to walk some. Wondered if it was time for another round of steroids. So glad he has a big brother in Dutch. Again thank you for all that you & Corey does. I appreciate & admire what you both can do. Would love to come up there some time when things are not as hectic & meet everyone.

💙🇺🇲 Seriously I just bought a package of NutterButter cookies (17th Oct 23') yesterday. I hadn't had any in such a long time (since i was a kid) and once I saw them at the store i had to buy them. NutterButter cookies are just a plain peanut butter cookie, nothing fancy.......and i had not seen NutterButters on the show yet and so i thought Recky would really apprecuate them but then Carol you pull them out of the box 😅. I'm glad you have them and i'm happy you guys enjoy them and props to the person who sent them! 😊 💜🙏☮🙏💜

[@jeffsheldon4096]

I just recently found your channel. First and foremost. Thank you for saving these stunning babies. My first. My only horse I ever owned was a Belgian. In your intro there is a very light blonde horse that was his exact color. Still brings tears to my eyes when I watch. He was 20 when I got him. His name was Taz. He was an a beautiful soul.

[@aujkalenic4203]

These horses are just beautiful animals ❤

[@Kavikwolf]

I love what you guys are doing so much! I wish I lived closer. I would love to volunteer my time helping if you guys ever needed that. Wonderful to see the horses enjoying that human interaction of love, affection and all the scratches. I'm sure being a work horse there was not much of that from where they came. It's wonderful how you and all involved are giving these gentle giants a new lease on life, absolutely wonderful!

[@rileyearl1]

Thank you so much for saving these beautiful creatures from slaughter. I looked at the sale lot videos of all the horses and donkeys slated for slaughter in Mexico. It's so heartbreaking to see them and know what could happen to them. There was a 20 year old Arabian with some minor health issues. He was gorgeous and disappeared a couple days after his kill date. There were 2 donkeys with newborns. I'm sad that the only way I can help is to follow your KZbin stories, but will be here as often as I can. Thanks again!

[@miric6224]

You can tell Arabella hasn't had the greatest life, shes probably been let down by humans many times and likely ripped away from her herd before and not handled properly. My heart is with arabella and with yall as you navigate getting her comfortable.
