Not that caring if they are selling because one eye is blind.

Spur must have been so scared at the auction to have acted up. He sure is a good boy now and we all look forward to seeing his progress!

Spur pulls on my heartstrings. Such a gentleman for what he has been through. God Bless

[@graciemac6303]

Spur is one of the most handsome ponies I've seen in a very long time. The fact he can't see out of that left eye and yet he remains so calm is a testament to his whole character. I love this lil man (and I do not like ponies in general) he's been well trained for sure.

[@rawsienna1]

Sweet little Spur has a big fan club now! Number 1 fan here! Grateful for you're compassion in helping him have a healthier and happier life. 🐎 💗

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Absolutely!

[@shiyjanke1168]

Prayers for Spur that his eye sight can be corrected. I’m thankful he was given to great people.

[@avacadman2155]

Someone near to you so you can check up on Spur. Such a Beautiful boy. I pray his eye can be saved! 💗💗💗💗💗

[@Vinniegret]

He sure deserved better than his most recent treatment. I’m so glad he got rescued

[@DG-wu7ke]

Still after not having a rider in a while and being blind in one eye he was very cooperative and trusted your lead. He will make someone a great addition to their barn. He has a very calm and gentle nature about him. I think the first person to bond with him will have a champion for life.

[@conniehusband1365]

A lovely gait for a small Spur.

[@VeraStinson]

I hope you found a good home for Spur. He seems to have such a sweet nature. Thank you for all you do for these horses.

[@lisap9331]

I had a horse blind in one eye in the 90s. She was the sweetest horse ever! Loved kids! Super gentle!

[@robbymcintosh9069]

You've already shown him more love than he's had in a while..God's peace to you 🙏

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Thank you

[@ratherbwithhorses]

It's true, but you never know why horses get into bad situations. This pony must have been loved in his life, and we get too quick to judge. Sometimes people get sick or other terrible things happen. I believe helping those people out would be kinder to horses and humans in the long run.

[@juneramirez8580]

Times are hard and money is in short supply for some people. He was well fed but medical and shoeing must have been too much for the owner. I pray that if this was the case, the last owner sees better days.

[@ratherbwithhorses]

@@juneramirez8580 there was an elderly woman in up state NY. The farm was alongside a highway. Her husband died, snow caced in half the barn. She had 1 old horse. She fed and groomed him daily. He stood by the barn and not inside. So every "concerned" person flying by in their car would call the aspca on her. The woman just wanted the two of them to live out the rest of life in peace. The officer would try to tell these "concerned" people how the horse was fine but go so sick of all the concern so he gathered some helpers, built a run in shed for the horse that he never used, but at least the complaints stopped for him and the owner.

[@juneramirez8580]

@@ratherbwithhorses You are a kind hearted person and you see life from all sides. It is easy to judge other people before we know facts. I see it in comments on a number of farm type videos. Concerned people have their heart in the right place, they just don't have the facts. They speak on subjects they really know nothing about. I am so thankful people came together to fix a problem in your story EVEN when there was really no problem. It just goes to show that humanity is not totally lost.

[@francesbuhle9001]

Having sight in only one eye should not keep anyone from owning this great pony. I have a one eyed TWH saved from a kill lot and he has certainly proved to be both kind and a good trail buddy. Just respect his blind side and you will gain his trust.

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

very true

[@TruthArrows]

Kill lots are just horrific and no living being deserves to suffer. Still I find it extra sad in situations like when TWH get used up in the Big Lick show ring for 8 yrs or so and in a couple years wind up at auctions and kill lots. All of these precious beings give and give and certain humans just take, take and take.... even to the point of blood money. You really can tell how a person truly is by how they treat the living beings around them.

[@Candy-O1776]

@@TruthArrowsI’m just here and know nothing about horses, but love and respect them. One day on FB a lady was videoing from one of those horse things and she was all kinds of upset. There was a horse from the Amish with real messed up feet, and they wanted too much to buy him. I wanted her to have the chance to save him so I sent $100. I followed her for awhile, and the one foot was requiring more and more money. I sent another 100, then I don’t know what happened. Covid I guess. I admire y’all and your love and care of these glorious animals.

[@carlaanderson9816]

My dad brought me home a $23 pony when I was 8. She was blind in one eye. She was my best friend for 5 years. Other than stubborn, I saw no effects from the blind eye. Spur is an awesome pony and will still be great if his eye doesn’t heal. Good luck!

[@SocialShires]

I wouldnt worry either. You can train him to ride on loose reigns so he can freely look around to compensate

[@dmariewalker6880]

Spur IS beautiful, it’s a shame that he was neglected, TY for saving him and nursing him back to health, hopefully his left eye sight can be restored.

[@aremedyproject9569]

Warm the med in your pocket to body temp before you put it in his eye. It won’t irritate the eye that way and he won’t jump or evade it going forward. Glad you saved him!

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Good idea

[@lynnesimmons3112]

Spur is so sweet to bad he can’t stay with you guys and have a wonderful life.

Sweet pony, ears came forward as you worked him. Looks like he was remembering and enjoying it as much as you. Nice disposition, just needed some loving and somebody to give him a chance. Good job boys. 👍

[@billrobbins5874]

Hope he finds a loving home. Seems so much happier now. A hoof trim, eye care and kind family. ♥️

[@junebrilly5302]

Nice rider, quiet and really soft hands!

[@BlueEternities]

Let's be honest, your skill with showing him that you're trustworthy, in a language he understands, is a very important factor here. Spur seems like a very good judge of character. He also seems like if he didn't trust your intentions, he might be willing to stand his ground. He's a good soul.

[@avrilpeters5900]

Poor little spur thank God he's now got someone to care for him

[@mmiller1011]

He knew you were helping him. Did you notice his reaction after the treatment? He trusted you. He shook off the stress. Well done.

[@jerrywitt801]

Even after the neglect hes still so sweet and so trusting. Beautiful little pony. It must have been so hard walking around with his hooves in that shape. Im so glad to see someones trying to get him back healthy.

[@Karen-p9t5g]

Nice of the vet to give such a full description of what she is doing.

[@TeeJayDeluxe]

He’s a lovely boy! ❤

[@birdiesgs]

You can tell he feels better being taken care of..He runs like he is free...I bet there is someone that will want him with his disability, maybe they can relate to it..He sure is beautiful.

Thank yiu

[@larkspin]

Spur seems to an absolute sweetheart. I'm so glad he has you all to look after him.

[@valkyrie1066]

Cateract? I had a nearly blind old horse when I was a teenager. He needed cues as to what lay in front of him. Foot/rein signals to let him know where and how high, the jump was. He took second place in a jumping competition. Spur will be okay with love and devotion, with or without the second eye. Your right foot signals when to begin lifting off for the jump, watch HIS right front foot; time it, tap tap TAP to signal takeoff. Reins on the neck show HEIGHT of the jump, the higher they are held on the neck, the higher the jump. It did not actually take us long to develop a working system. He sailed over every one of the jumps without knocking them down, and that got us a standing ov from the crowd. Sweet Spur has a lot of good years left in him.

[@mopanimickey1591]

He has a pretty gait. He's a proud little fella. ❤ Love the smile on Blake's face while he was riding him. Like someone who rides a Harley then has a go on an automatic scooter and has a ball. 😂

[@dianebannister4591]

Spur is so easy with being ridden. He's a great horse!

[@sunflowermarcia7277]

He has adapted well to his left eye blindness. Hope he can get some sight back. Beautiful pony!

He really has but praying he gets the sight back time will tell

[@kimberlypotts3874]

AMEN

[@mikewithrow2271]

I was actually off work yesterday and watched the opening video. He is actually a really good pony. You can tell by his ears he was never stressed anytime at y'all while y'all were loading him or even saddling or riding him. Even blind in that eye he's still a solid pony.

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Thx. We think so too

[@brianmartin2071]

Alan, I can’t believe the difference in Spurs hoofs now that they have been trimmed, seeing him again he looked like a different pony. I’m sure this pony will make a child an awesome Christmas present and friend for life . He definitely found his way to the right family to take that extra care of him until he is well enough to move on. Bless you all for your care, love and attention, not just on this pony but all the horses, pony’s and Donkey’s that pass through the farm on their way to there forever homes.

[@susanbrak]

He probably WAS wild at the auction. If he's never been through an auction before he was probably scared out of his mind. Poor guy. He is sooo adorable and will make someone a great pony I bet. I'm SOOOOOO glad you all got him instead of some kill buyer. P.S. I still think Johnnie would look cute riding this pony lol. Although Blake did an awesome job riding him :)

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

im sure he was just super scared

[@ratherbwithhorses]

A nice bomb proof pony is becoming a very rare find. Someone, spent good time with guy. I'm sure you'll be able to get a great family, and enough sale money to help another find a home. We have a pony from a kill auction, she is completely unridable. Now we've had her for years and I call her my feral pony. She needs little grain and stays healthy, doesn't act aggressive, chew wood, escape or do damage and so she stays. Sometimes she forgets what a snot she is and almost seems embarrassed to have allowed her hoof to be picked. I would never say she is for any child. Your Spur is a good kids pony.

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

He is nice
