Just unbelievable the shape of that holding yard, the horses...the greed for money is sickening how they let the horses suffer. This was a rough auction rescue with so many horrific injuries....😥

[@humaneleaguelancPA]

Yes, seems many were really bad, thankfully those that are blind will get new homes.

[@sallywaites8517]

Horse rescue heroes was fantastic but I am so happy horse shelter heroes is back. ❤

[@wilmarh1973]

Sally Waites. Me also.

[@beckienichols1051]

What nite of the way this is show come on

[@jillking5876]

I have an especially soft spot for the big, gentle giant draft horses, and it was wonderful to see the Belgian being rescued. He may be blind, but with love and understanding, he could make someone a very happy owner. He is huge! I was also kind of surprised that the young mare was able to get pregnant at the age of one-and-a-half. I hope she is able to deliver without too much of a problem. Thanks, guys, for all that you do.

[@Carmelle747]

Wow! The setup for Sage’s eye care is so clever, very cool! Janna spoke the truth for us all- “ I don’t know how they’re that forgiving.” After the suffering these horses are subject to, they can still thrive with care and kindness. The way they seek comfort even in the worst circumstances at auction inspires both admiration and heartbreak.

[@fairygodmomma2313]

Beautiful.

[@christinegautreau224]

There are such beautiful horses and donkey etc. The suffering ones tears my heart out. Being rescued and receiving last act of kindness is such a blessing. Horse Plus is the Heart of Compassion

[@hphs]

Thank you so much for your kind words.

[@oliviasimon2896]

Aggred!

[@janetgray8737]

I do not understand how owners can neglect their horses the way we have seen in your vlogs. My heart is heavy watching them struggle to walk and be so scared due to blindness. You are such a wonderful group of individuals who love these beautiful animals. Poor babes!

[@hphs]

I completely agree, no clue how someone can do that.

[@laurachurchill8171]

I think one part maybe a small part or not of people treating their horses this way especially in Tennessee because as Tawney has let us know. There are pretty much no laws on the book stating you cannot mistreat neglect horses in that state. It completely pisses me off that it is that way. So thank you horse Plus for everything you do. Blessings and prayers from our family to yours

[@lxn2850]

You guys amaze me. I think that even if y'all had to put all of them down at least they're not in the slaughter pipeline. It's amazing the work, the love, the caring. Y'all are very special people.

[@beckiemccray9711]

I am 75 years old and 15 years ago my horses were stolen and threw finding you and what you do for the horses is wonderful.

[@allienelson2889]

The big draft gelding reminds me of a horse I work with, Noble, who's half percheron and is the sweetest. The draft gelding looks good for a draft coming from auction. You guys are the best! I love the work that you all do!

[@kimhoefgen3558]

Sure do like your new vet tech. She is super 😍

[@barbarabisson2551]

yes, but she scares me the way she flings that syringe around while she talks. (horses, too I'll bet)

[@pixie706]

She seems to dominate everything. No friendly banter like there used to be ...pity as that made it all seem more caring

[@humaneleaguelancPA]

Damn, she is good! What is her name?

[@humaneleaguelancPA]

@@pixie706 I'll bet the vet. tech's efficiency when doing the intake runs very smooth and very quickly because she is so knowledgeable! If you watched the other seasons, the auction rescues really put a drain on the staff! Think of how emotional it can be, also a lot of hard work handling frightened and confused and blind animals. Then they get them home and the process of dealing with each horse and getting medical history. These hard working people have got to be just Beat after two days of this and we don't see the half of it (editing!). Then the RAIN! It sure does seem like it rains a lot in TN! Slogging through muck and mud, (dirty laundry!) for 2 days. The staff must need a day to recover! It's easy for us to judge sitting in a warm, toasty house watching from afar with a hot tea my hand! Blessings to All the Staff!

[@kimhoefgen3558]

@@pixie706 Yes she does seem very business like but she is very busy and keeps it moving in order to get things done. She will be a great asset to Doc as well. 😉🐴

[@phoenixw5949]

Thank you Cory for everything you do! You seem like the perfect man, intelligent, caring, AND extremely handsome.

[@jackimatamoros7098]

Some woman somewhere is sick of his sh*t I'm sure. LOL 😆 🤣 😂

[@beth-annwymore5071]

We surrendered our 2 horses to our friends. They needed care that our health wouldn't allow for certain. It was so hard but it was the right thing for them. One is 30, has arthritis and not many teeth left. He sure has the will to live. Until that changes or he's in pain, our friend will monitor him closely. Thanks for all you do. I'm learning a lot!

[@stardust949]

Lovely team---lovely animals. I'm glad you relieved the suffering of those who were in severe condition.

[@hphs]

Thank you so much for your kind words.

[@lucyabbott4480]

Awesome video could watch it all night. Wonderful to have your vet tech with you at auction, she does such a good job of explaining what the concerns are on a horses condition. Cory did an excellent job being the big speaking part this time. Music and editing was great as usual. Looking forward to next Thursday will try to be on time LOL

[@nbe1951]

I never miss an episode; though there are some sad moments, your efforts make a difference to all the horses. Thanks.

[@hphs]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@oogalaboo]

Oh gosh, the draft ❤ who knew horse blindness could be a blessing!

[@afterthestorm221]

It's amazing to see the transformation in their spirit from strictly being safe overnight.

[@animalcrazee]

I welcome back the rescue videos to see these 26 saved from slaughter. Thanks for all you do.

[@ligt18098]

Very heartwarming episode. And the overall production of this series is improving so much! It's starting to look like stuff I'd watch on Animal Planet! I hope you guys end up with a TV series (one that isn't scripted or over-dramatic. But something that can increase the money flow to you guys even more so more horses can be rescued! You guys should get a patreon!

[@janelleb8274]

Great choice to get Jenna on staff. She seems very knowledgeable and comfortable with the horses. With all the medical and weight problems you see, having someone to deal with that every day seems like a very important thing. I really hope you can get more trainers on staff, Cory can't do it all by himself. With the number one goal to get horses adopted, I would think that there would be more of a focus on handling and training. So happy that you were able to save so many at auction.

[@julieb3996]

Right away I noticed the video quality and editing is great! I mostly watch because of the tragedy of the auctions and to see the horses get better and find homes, but the little details are important too.

[@ninakaiser2930]

That draft horse is a beauty! It breaks my heart to see some of the horses in such conditions. And still they are nice - even some of them are in so much pain or scared because they are blind and at the auction. Hard to believe how generous animals are! Glad for every single horse/life you saved! And it must feel amazing for them when they get pain meds and feel a bit better!

[@cavia47]

I admire your work and that's why I support your organization. I would like to see more social interaction between people and horses other than vet care and training. Socialization is very important too and would be nice to see the pampering going on behind the scenes between these horses and staff.

[@hphs]

That's a great idea! I know some of our staff are begging to go trail riding again too, along with the daily feeding, grooming and pampering. :)

[@barbll000]

Love the updates on the auction horses because I always wonder how it worked out for them. Looks like the team is working well together with the new system and so glad too that lots of pain meds were issued before the ride to the shelter.

[@amandamason6699]

Fantastic episode 🤩♥️ it makes sad and angry that people bring injured horses to auction BUT you saved 26 !!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@hphs]

26 awesome lives saved!

[@kendraallison7963]

Dang it, I missed the premier. I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for saving these gorgeous, majestic animals. I know it's not easy seeing the suffering and pain in these animals eyes and making the call to end their pain. It takes a very special person to be in rescue and all of you including your vet team are truly amazing heroes. I have 8 cats, all are rescues and 5 of them were born feral. My baby girl, my princess was only around 4 weeks old and "knocking on deaths door" (per the vet) when I found her on my porch during an East Tennessee thunderstorm, she'll be 3 in June-July.

[@mariearmstrong9185]

I just don't understand how a human being can treat such a beautiful animal this way.

[@heathercummins1644]

First, to the media crew: Amazing job! Love the new music & new methods! The b roll cutaways are great! ❤ Second, to the intake crew: It's amazing how much you get done, & in such a good time frame! So glad you implemented the new system! Third, to the Vet Tech: You do such a fantastic job with intake & getting a good file on each of the horses. Glad you are on the team! And last, but not least, to all of you at HPHS, thank you for all that you do every day for the horses and the people who adopt. Giving everyone a chance to love & live a better life with a horse is a gift that can never be repaid in full. ❤❤❤

[@kimberlyrivard6945]

So happy to see the intake and the horses delivered safe and sound.❤️❤️❤️

[@donnaelkins186]

Great video. Thank you for all your hard work saving all the horses 🐎 that you do. God bless. ❤ horse plus.

[@tammie9565]

I love you all so much for all you do keep up the good work.

Jenna’s personality is shining thru on this. I love it!

[@cowgirlval5216]

Way to go! 26 horses are blessed❤🙏

[@justnix4487]

I don't personally know you guys but I love you all for the pure love you give these beautiful animals even if it's for a little while I always cry for the ones that you have to free from pain and suffering and dry my eyes for the ones that live their lives loved 🥰

[@hphs]

Adoptions definitely help, but it is so sad seeing so much pain and suffering.

[@shirleehughes8125]

Yes you all were missed take care

[@nataliamichalik8]

It's awesome what your doing, and saving these horses!! I'm trying to spread awareness on big lick shows so I'm making a poster and it's going to be about animal cruelty, BIG LICK, BIG LIE!!!!

Jason is always so positive! He seems like a great guy to work with!

The live is so much better. I 💖💖 Horse Plus Humane Society.

[@j.elizabeth4621]

That white draft is so handsome.

[@DebbieHollandNZ]

Kory is just a natural behind the camera and such a great asset to Horse Plus. Jenna also is excellent. The quality of the filming is really improved very professional I would just add one criticism filming people from the side when they are talking is disconcerting. But the filming is really good and LOVE the new opening section.

[@hphs]

Thanks! Will pass that on to our filmers and editors.

[@CC-xk6cp]

Hi again A rougher looking group this time in much need of medical and TLC. Can never believe the cruelty from humans to let them suffer! Surely hope none of them have children as I can only imagine the neglect too! An awesome vid and a great team! Heartfelt thx as always for all you do... God bless

[@hphs]

Yes there was a lot of sadness in this auction group, but I'm so glad we were able to save them! Thanks so much for your compliments too!

[@daedreamshelties]

I totally agree. This is total neglect. How can people sleep at night knowing they left their horse like that suffering.. All I can say is thank you Horse Plus team for doing your best to pick up and helping these pore horses.

[@karenbergevine9140]

I so admire you all for your work.

[@hphs]

Thank you!

[@paulinefollett3099]

The team that you have are absolutely wonderful. I am so proud of you all. Thank you for caring for these beautiful sentient beings.

[@hphs]

Thanks!

[@Rainheadofshadowclan]

With the right owner and proper care, blind horses can thrive. Look up Endo the Blind and Zipped in Black Magic, both horses are blind. Gives me hope for the number of blind horses in this video.

[@sherrileeslade6557]

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of the Donkey from February auction.

[@janw491]

The work you guys do is amazing. The hopeless look in these animals eyes is heartbreaking.

[@dreamcatcher3861]

This was so lovely to see this evening. I’ve been waiting for the new season and like everyone else, am always sad when the episode is over. I know I say it every time but you guys really are my heroes. You’re earth angels with the most compassionate, empathetic souls. If I could reach out and hug each and every one of you, I would. So, instead, take my words and be proud of all you do, the gratitude I feel towards you for every horse who steps onto your land, is the biggest hug you could ever feel. So proud to be part of this community and so proud to support Horse Plus. Love you all……..especially Kory. 😉🙏🏻🌻🌻🌻

Beautiful episode! My favorite is the draft and I hope it makes a full recovery! I also can’t wait to see the foals running around! 😊 I’m glad HSH is back and I love the new intro! Thank you for all your hard work saving and caring for these horses, it can be difficult at times but it’s definitely worth it when you see these horses healthy and adopted living their happiest lives. ❤️

It’s really a blessed event to have you folks coming for these suffering horses and donkeys!! Thank you for the donations, as well as your loving care on this day!👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@AD-hs2bq]

The level of information and your internal process is excellent. Awareness is the agent for change and your videos are mentoring tools for animal owners; take care of medical and behavioral issues. It’s so gratifying to see what you are able to do with your rescues-a second chance at life.

[@hphs]

Thank you!

[@lynne5679]

You guys are incredible. Seems like you are getting a greater number of critical ones. I wonder if some healthy ones you get in surrenders may have gone to auction before your program became so well known.

Fly free to the that needed the last act of kindness. And to the Donkey that passed away. Thank you for all of the awesome work you do for these animals.

[@barmar4740]

I was watching an episode of a Tenerife horse rescue a couple days ago, & they had a donkey like the 3 year old donkey rescued in this episode that Doc said is pregnant. The black stripe gown her side indicates she is a specific breed of donkey from the Canary Islands. I couldn’t quite understand what the Tenerife people called the breed.

[@patriciaboyer2675]

Cheering for every life that makes it to y'all, always will. Praying for the big ol draft horse to not only live and thrive but to find someone who will love him and care for Him. If I lived in an area where I could have him, I'd try my hardest to adopt him.

[@hphs]

Mr Hawaii is going to a great place!

[@carolcrompton6138]

Great job Cory….glad you got the job and can work with the donkeys as well as the horses!! Males will get those beans of smegma in their sheath pockets, and need checking monthly and cleaned so they don’t get irritated and swollen! You people are super with these poor babies, and I am sure they are much better off!!❤️❤️❤️

You guys are awesome with what you do keep up with the good work

[@beckyd712]

Okay, we've seen "Cinnamon", "Comet" and of course a "Nutmeg" how about a "Corriander" or maybe a "Daisy" or "Petunia"? Aren't horses supposed to be 3 yrs or older before it's safe to breed them? Feel so sorry for the 1.5 yr old mare who is unhandled. Horses truely are like angels- they forgive us for many deeds by others and will still trust us. LOL! Tawnee I think the big fellow likes you! Made me smile so big, Thank You for posting! Feel better soon Tawnee!

R.I.P. to the 3 horses and the donkey who didnt make it . May these beautiful animals run thru beautiful green pastures across the Rainbow Bridge forever free from pain and suffering .Its awesome that all y'all were able to save 26 horses \ donkeys n mules . Its saddens me that owners throw them away like trash when they no longer want them . They can always call a horse rescue to find a home for them instead of dumping them off . Have a blessed weekend
