NEGLECTED PONY GETS the TREATMENT HE NEEDS

[@WalkerFarmFam]

Gary feels tricked. After a trip to Arizona we now have a pony and more chickens 🤣🤣 The kids and I think it was a perfect out come ☺️ Appreciate y’all’s friendship ❤️

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Love your family!!!

[@kimsmith6342]

Did spurr get the life he deserved? Update please ❤😊

[@stardust949]

Awww...little Spur---he's not a neglected pony any more. Any Pony who has his own Fan Club and is on people's prayer lists is pretty special. God Bless!

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

It is awesome. Thx for all your prayers!!

[@sheilaosborne7387]

How about all humans that worked on Spur?! Vets, caregivers, all the others animals that plays & made him feel welcome. Sometimes it takes a village! Thanks even to friends that called the foster fathers to come get him!!! And all the great, caring fine humans that check on him online❤😊.!!!🥰💖😍👍 Love & kindness!!

[@DebbieAppelhans]

Thank you for recuse beautiful horses 🐎 life's matters 🐎 the village people you all angels life's matter to all humanity animals ❤️ life's matter God bless you all angels life's matter people 🙏 to 😊

[@alecbaguley5246]

I have been watching spur falling in love with his dad, following him around, if he is rehomed you will miss this character and he will miss you terribly

[@SanchoPanza-wg5xf]

Rehomed? The verb you're looking for is *sold* . eg: The master sold his horse last Tuesday." Ponies don't appreciate being infantilized.

[@Unknown-hu4gf]

He needs to see a boarded veterinary opthamologist! These type of vets can work miracles...

[@charri3]

Agree. I didn't hear the vet mention any use of a hypersonic solution which can pull out that excessive fluid causing edema.

[@SpringoStar]

What a sweet Shetland wishbone boy! (His butt makes a wishbone with his tail.) I've followed him through your videos. Poor thing... So sad about his eye though. This old man needs a sweet pasture to roam, a herd, and a loving family who will care for him as he lives out his silver years. ❤️

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

❤️

[@lynnegee6814]

​@@TheFarmonRoute66 I'm sure I'm far from the only one to say it, but Spur is really not a Shetland Pony. Sweet he certainly is,

[@pttp321]

Maybe some one will adopt him not for riding him but more for giving him a safe home hood good and love. Thank you for your good care of this lil guy

[@LoremLipsumz]

I wish he could go to a rescue and spend his remaining days enjoying life without being some kids pony 😢 thank you for giving him such great care ❤

[@TheBunky2008]

I agree. So does Spur. He's been thru enough.

[@sjs-stev]

Some kids are a pony’s best friend. Depends on the kid. And the pony.

[@gem246]

I agree. Poor Spur needs a break from bad humans. Please

[@tomcarter9677]

Please find Spur an excellent Rescue place to spend the rest of his life being love on, develop friends and simply enjoying life. No children please.

[@DebbieRiley-t6e]

Spur is such a Sweetheart! These are lovely and wholesome people. Praying for the best. ❤ Debbie, Worcester, England.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

He sure is a cute little guy!

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Thank you!!

[@wendyritter7149]

More pony for you Melissa and Jeremy ?? Plenty of room 😎

[@nancyweliczko9334]

Spur looks like he loves being at The Farm.

[@KristenWeber-d1i]

I know this comment is years late, but I just today found your channel. I love, love, love this pony and what you are doing for him. I will continue to watch to see how Spur's story developed. The second horse we pulled from a kill pen had a big brand on his hip. The vet in Spokane we took him to for a lameness exam had a book of registered Washington state brands and he looked up the brand and gave me the information so we could contact the person who owned the brand and who owned the horse at one time. The brand owner wrote me back and told me that the horse was at least 30 years old because he had stopped breeding that long ago and he only branded those he bred. He was terribly sad to find out that one of his babies was used up and thrown away at auction but happy that he was going to spend the last few years of his life with us, never to be passed around again. Brands are usually registered so don't hesitate to ask a vet or a state brand inspector for help.

[@Mainecoon_Izzy]

Sweet little lad, reminds me of my rescue pony black Shetland pony who was blind in one eye also and had been ridden by adults. Until my dad bought her for $35 from the SPCA. She was my best friend, kept me out of trouble! Galloped her through our local park every day after school, the best of the best memories, now at 55 I still have vivid wonderful memories❤️💯🙏

[@peterjones4621]

I see it's been a year and I'm just now watching this video but I was wondering if you were able to save his left eye? I sure hope so, he's such a sweet boy.

[@AngelCatBaby]

I’d love to give Spur a home, always wanted a horse or pony of my own, I’d put him out in my backyard, where he could eat my grass, without weed killer unlike my neighbors, it’d give me a break from mowing the lawn and then I could save gas by hitching him up to a buggy and go fishing, we could enjoy our senior years together ….🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, but I don’t think the city nor my neighbors would like the idea….I sure would though….🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣….God’s blessings upon you all and Spur. 👍❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ohwell2790]

So. Really you want to put him to work for you. Typical

[@katherinedinwiddie4526]

Love Spur!! Thanks for making him comfortable.

[@DS-ky9dl]

I wish the best for little Spur. He seems to have acclimated to the loss of sight, so now it is just riding and training. He has a good attitude and temperament, which is a big part of it. Good luck, Spur.

[@TexasGal4981]

Big Spur did fantastic with Cordell’s professional hands and strength!

[@maureen8930]

I praying his eye gets better with your care 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@cberry6751]

Wow!!! What a transformation. God Bless what you’ve done for him.

[@claudiadickerman4218]

Just a comment for you Alan and NOT being critical so please know that. I have English Bulldogs who always need some kind of medication in their eyes. My vet said to either put it in with a sterile gloved finger or Directly from the tube squeezing it into the bottom as you pull it down. All eye meds whether humans meds' or animals need to be sterile, not sure using your ungloved finger is the best way to do it. GREAT that you are doing everything to make this very nice pony into a very adoptable guy! He seems to be just a bit smaller than HIJO, so wondering if he is a pony/quarter horse cross. Isn't that what POA ponies are? In the UK they have lots of different kinds of ponies and the Welsh ponies over there are comparable in size to Spur. Good for young and early teens, easy to mount and fun to boot!

[@fluffy_mcflooferson4635]

His eye looks healthier and more comfortable than before, so even if he doesn't get his sight back, you've improved his quality of life. What a sweet boy. Just needs some more focused work with him. You guys are doing God's work. I love seeing how gentle and kind you are with him.

[@nancyotero774]

Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things unseen. His eye looks better and hopefully feels better. Envision that eye healed and speak life! Shsh on doubting. By His stripes Spurs is healed and I’m sticking with it.🥰

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

❤️

[@sstarkey1695]

Spur is adorable, and flashy, too! He should be on your T-shirts for next year! The farm mascot!

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

that would be fun!

[@bethannmay74]

All Little Spur needed was “the touch of the Master’s Hand.”

[@ds3333]

So glad to see you doctoring Spur's eye. I hate to see how these animals get neglected.

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Us too

[@mirellawentz4688]

I’m praying for Spur’s eyesight 🙏🏻🥰 such a lovely horse

[@BigBadPibbul]

Whoever ends up with him is going to be super lucky, little bit of a refresh to work some of the kinks out of him and I'm sure he'd be just fine for an experienced kid to ride.

[@dboley1950]

I wish you'd keep him . I'd watch him grow up. He's so sweet

[@ramblinrose8]

Spur is a sweetheart...just a big sweetie pie...your good work is bringing him back!

[@billtozier9081]

Might be just wishful thinking but I think the eye is responding. You're doing a great job with him.

[@ralphbourke5473]

As positive as we are I'm more convinced as long as he's loved and cared for properly at this point I feel this would be a fair trade off for his one eye! Again I thank you for your love of our 4 legged family! God bless

[@mscampbell1242]

Keeping my fingers crossed Spur regains his sight!!

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

us too!

[@susangarcia9838]

Remember nothing is impossible.

[@chrisroper2731]

Prayers for Spur to regain his sight in his bad eye. He is just a precious little pony and so trusting. I hate that he will be broken hearted again when he gets rehomed. I can see how much he trusts you. And he loves you, always happy to see you and follows you around when he can. Poor baby, he has had enough strangers in his life. It must be difficult to not know where to call home.

[@charlotterockel-kennedy8913]

Spur is so sweet 🤩💖 my best friend's horse was blind in one eye, my horse was his seeing eye, we always rode with my horse on his left side (Rocky was blind in his left eye) and because Rocky knew and trusted Murphy he had no problems what so ever when we was out riding. Spur will adapt, he just needs a good horse friend to help him along and the right new owner that will love him . Thank you all for what you do for all the horses 😍👍💖

[@ifsheisgonetowherethere6259]

Yes, and he's such a good-looking pony too! He is eye candy for us horse and pony lovers. I hope his eye improves. Our farm neighbors rode a blind horse when we were kids. As long as you watched ahead and said "pick up" if she needed to step over something, she would start to trust you more and more. Because of her, I didn't hesitate to say yes to an offer to give us an aged blind gelding. All these years later, my daughter still loved him the very best. He loved being ridden and trusted his rider. We had an Arab mare who was in her mid-twenties, that was his seeing-eye dog, too. She would go to the gate and whinny to him so he could follow her out the gate into the other pasture.

[@maryjohns4971]

Hi guys he's just as sweet as ever

[@carolkampe118]

We just sold a fox trot mare that has been blind in one eye for years now and she has no problems.

[@michelleperkins9886]

Such a sweet little fella! Spur is a real little gentleman! It’s so good of y’all to do what you do for these ponies. I’ll be interested in an update on how his eye is doing. 💖💖

[@LilMissPatriot]

Beautiful baby. I'm glad he's getting the love and attention he deserves!❤🐎

[@ritamariekelley4077]

What a beautiful little guy. It's impossible not to fall in love with him, his beautiful spirit. So glad he found compassionate foster parents. His markings are beautiful.

[@steveleverett300]

Beautiful spur. Prayers he he gets better and find the greatest comfort from he’s new family ❤

[@mercedithcompala8148]

[@gillianesquilant4091]

I like your gentle and quiet but knowledgeable and respectful easy ways with our equine friends, it's in your entire demeanor :)

[@HumesLittleHomestead]

Hailey has been waiting for an update on this sweet horse! She's excited to watch on our way to school this morning.

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

That’s awesome 💕 hi Hailey!!

[@carolkampe118]

I wish i could find a sweet pony like him for my granddaughter!

[@juliederry3719]

Spur would make a fantastic ride for a small child if he’s being led just to be on the safe side, if the rider is confident and able then all should be safe and well, keeping my fingers crossed that he gets the sight back in that eye, he’s adorable, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧

[@bitcox4160]

Dang I thought he was a looker belore love and care. He is a true beauty

[@kathleenmcginley4827]

I wonder if 'goo gone' on a rag would work on removing that auction sticker glue. Spur has come a long way & I hope you find him a awesome forever home.

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

[@DonnaLane-pw4rg]

[@trishengard8388]

Such a good pony ❤️. Maybe he should be called Spike instead of Spur, his mane is so cute sticking straight up 😍😍😍

[@pamelamorrell7720]

Loved the 3 videos I saw. What a sweet little pony. Hope he has a lot more good years for some family.

[@amyaiken576]

Wow, how I wish I was 20 yrs younger, I would take him in a minute! Sweet, sweet soul. ❤❤❤😢

[@shotsrodder]

That is one sweet pony

[@wendyschkade2792]

Lucky pony . So sweet how could anyone be so abusive. He looks so.much better.

[@brettgraves1115]

I'm pretty sure you don't need to worry. He won't go far.

[@annetteford5616]

I love what you do for your horse's my Grandpa had a farm with 2 milk cow's and 5 horses and chicken's, pigs. I'm 69 year's old but I still have fond memories of the farm.

[@terrileyda5346]

After knowing about his blind eye, it was noticeable how he turned his head when you approached him!

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Yip he did it right when Alan walked in the pen

[@charlene714]

He is a fancy looking guy!❤

[@debbieking1136]

Everyone here loves Spur. Sending Spur forever home and shower apples and carrots.

[@lauraschindler8934]

He is such a pretty little pony. He is well taken care of on your farm. Someone is going to get a great pony❤❤

[@maryrussell979]

❤️🙏sending prayers for Spur.. God will bless you for what you have done for him.

[@RuthJones-iz1ve]

I pray that Spur will find his forever home. He has a lot of viewers falling in love with him. Vickie, hope your feeling better. I’ve been fighting cold and bronchitis.

[@elizabethford6738]

He even drops his head for the halter! Great pony❤

[@dougstdig]

For future reference…if you place that tube of ointment under your underwear band for a while and get it to your body temperature, it will soften and become a thick liquid. That way you can place thick drops in the eye instead of having it stick to your finger like a wax.

[@jenniferphillips4765]

HE IS A BEAUTIFUL PRECIOUS HORSE. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE HIM AS MY OWN. SO SPECIAL.

[@sgtmac62]

God bless you and your ministry.

[@makynleehickman7548]

I ride Appaloosa/TB X that unties his slip knot every time. Luckily he just stands there and enjoys his Spa treatment. We call them baths.

[@janelleroads6011]

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Thank you so much. I’m getting better 💕

[@jjones9536]

He is such a nice pony please make sure he has a good home and you keep in touch with the owner. We don't want him to be moved onto another bad home. I have rescue itvgas taken my 4 year to rebuild her. She's never going yo be neglected again.

[@CynthiasCraftsandmore]

Thank you for sharing, I pray that God blesses you today! Hugs and love to you and your family. 💖✝🤗 Have a beautiful and blessed week. God Bless 💖✝🤗

[@carolkampe118]

Pretty pony!!!

[@timothychandler1725]

Maybe the Walker family needs this pony too, so they have a team to pull a little wagon for kids. They could be fun to do a cover wagon like Oklahoma state, and the 24th July church activities. Spur need to see how he does a trail ride away from the place with your son. Make a video 📹 to show how he does around new surroundings, this Saturday.

[@femalecrusader8389]

He be good as a companion for another animal also for pony ride. I hope he finds a good home. 🦄

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

we will make sure he finds a good home

[@Amanda_Wilkerson]

He looks like an awesome looking pony, I hope you found him a good home.

[@nolawarren3560]

I didn't know I would fall in love with a pony

[@annwalsh5065]

Sounds like you love him already so why not keep him to make sure he's happy and safe?! 😄 NanaAnn:( the "instigator")

[@RafaelaFerguson]

Spur really is a beautifully marked pony. I hope the antibiotic cream has improved his eye and that Spur gets another miracle (in addition to you rescuing him and bringing him to the farm) that the steroids will clear up the fluid in his eye but also restore some vision in that eye. That would be such a wonderful and unexpected blessing!! ❤❤

[@ghiblilove86]

Shame, I did say on his previous video that he’d make a great kids pony but maybe a nice lil field companion. He’s a sweet guy ❤️

[@timothychandler1725]

After checking out the Walker's family video 📹. They need spur for the older kids to ride, because there legs 🦵wouldn't drag on the ground.

[@jeanroeder5534]

My first horse was blind in one eye, it was never an issue as long as I let him know I was coming up to that side.

[@SusanneMilewski-b3q]

I’m in love ❤with this sweet pony! I love seeing his progress.

[@ThoroughbredBrenna]

Im gonna watch this new video, love to see The farm on route 66❤

[@TheFarmonRoute66]

Thx

[@phillipowens1493]

He appears spur is a fairly well mannered pony and will give you much satisfaction, I watched his gait after the hoof trimming and it was beautiful, a very smooth movement, he will be a pleasure to ride I am sure! Good luck with what appears to be a great pony!

[@joanneganon7157]

I noticed when Spur Runs, He looks like He's prancing 💖,since his feet were so bad He couldn't Run 🙏. It's funny how Ranger could have used a taller Ride 👍. JO JO IN VT 💕😄

[@sedekiman824]

He reminds me of a Pit Pony. The ponies that were used in the mines in England. He seems a littele large for a Shetland.
