Horse Shelter Heroes | S2E23 | Full Episode

Published 2021-08-19
In this episode, our adoption event was a huge success with many horses finding their forever home. It was a very busy 2 days of adoptions, but in the end there were a lot of smiles on a lot of faces, and a lot of happy endings!

It was auction week, and with the mentoring of the organization for Horse Rescue Heroes Season 2, we planned to rescue a lot of horses. There were some good surprises at the auction, and in the end we were able to save 51 precious lives from the slaughter pipeline. Two other organizations, one from out of state, joined us at the auction and intake, for a total of 4 organizations working together!

    Doc is too modest. He's a pillar of your organization and the show. Always glad to see him; another good person doing good works saving the animals. 😃
  • @sallywaites8517
    Can never get enough of watching Doc assess the horses. Just knowing that regardless of the outcome none of those animals will ever suffer again.
  • @marciadick5451
    Doc had the line of the day: "We just have to ride it out. Just grab hold and hang on." Words to live by. Great job by you all on this rescue and intake. And cheers to you Jason for keeping everyone going when we know you were exhausted.
  • @ldyridr805
    I'm so thrilled you now have a Mule person on your team!! This really expands the chances for these beautiful creatures to have a good solid base for potential adopters. Yaaaaa!!!
  • @kaydavis6752
    The draft horse is awesome and the mules the same. I've a feeling that Kory is going to be a great addition to your team. Seems like a nice, softly spoken guy that the animals will take to.
  • @justb8010
    Please show more of the horses and the issues on intake and less of the people. Thanks for all that you do.
  • @dianemcq64
    I LOVE seeing the growth of your facility. So pleased you are getting the financial support you need. 🥰
  • @syzygyfarm
    That Belgy is giant, fit and gorgeous! Love the big mule, too! <3 And how the foundered paint carefully stepped over the shadow line on the ground. If she can be rehabbed, I'm sure she would make a lovely arena trail horse. I'm so glad she's going to the other rescue. <3
  • @janepstk
    I love Doc….makes my day …..glad so many horses, mules, ponies and donkeys were lucky enough to be saved or at least saved from the pain they were in…God Bless your good work!
  • Jess is absolutely awesome! You all are so Lucky to have her on the team!
  • @angela-po5uv
    The difference - watching the ladies bring in the horses from grassy pastures coming to feed buckets, all relaxed, it is beautiful.
    Ladies, God bless you. I know your job is "difficult" as there are very high-highs and very dark lows. You all are gifted and I hope you find the strength to keep doing what you do.
  • Your Doc reminds me of my old school vet when I was growing up. I'll be 60 this year. RIP Dr William Rokus taught me a lot about vet medicine.
  • @JudyMenzel7
    The supposed secret organization is truly no secret, since she was wearing her logo tshirt at the auction for everyone to see lol
  • @lmp8932
    The draft horse is a beauty. One of the best Endurance ride equines over here in Australia was a mule called Juanita, they aren't just for carrying stuff :)
  • @gmariet1391
    I love how you always know what's going on with the animals and employees. Great accountability and companionship in your team!
  • @Sunshine-nr6qe
    That feeling when you’re exhausted and worked hard all day, take a shower and finally crawl in bed....

    Thank you for ALL you do!
  • I've sent another small donation for this month's auction. The work you all do is amazing, especially the volunteers! Lots of love from Liz in the UK xxx 🇬🇧😍🦄
  • I was in awe seeing the amount of horses and the unity of having three organization working together. All horse rescue organizations should work together it shouldn't be different they all work for a common cause. Tawnee and Jason I just love the team you guys have put together it's amazing. you guys are the protecting Angels for horses, donkies , mules and all the rest of creatures which come to your organization. Love you all, stay safe and healthy. Great video thanks 😊
  • @FreesTylerFurYa
    That was one majestic, and absolutely gorgeous draft! I hope we'll see more of him <3

Shes like the song " i loved you before i met you..by savage garden ..They will make an awesome pair. Doodle bug? I read a book as a child with the same name. Tawnee im glad you dont hold it againsr him..hes your poster child for " love changes everyrhing ..( lol another song by clime? ) i love your name. Its unusal. I used to bb sit a little girl with the same name..( her two sisters and brother. ) you are a beautiful person for saving lives.
