thing of rock salt for the horses this is a big uh grain bin that we can put our grain in so the mice don't get to it so it keeps it dry yeah we just want to thank you all so much for all of your donations and all of your support if you would like to find our amazon wishlist you can do that in the description and then donations if you're not able to find anything on the amazon wishlist that you'd like to donate you can always donate some money to go towards helping the horses we'll be going to an auction soon so we greatly appreciate all of your support and hope you guys have a wonderful day this is rocky he still needs some work on personal space too [Music] okay and then this is the first vital refusal agreement so the first one is what we talked about earlier we do ask if you're not able to keep either one of them that you do bring them back events free of charge his coggins do expire the 24th of this month so we can get with the vet and see if they can come out monday and um do his coggins and we can redo his vaccines and everything so everything's current for him for a year awesome we would just have to mail the province to you if that was okay we can give you the current ones we have now that expire on the 24th but then we can give you a new set okay i will mail you the new set [Music] we were so excited we get to add more horses to our adopted and transferred wall so we get to add let's see we get to add laredo laredo got adopted and then queen of the night so excited for them and we get to add some more so we get to add ember [Applause] and rocky loreto who is number 10 queen of the night is number 11. rocky is number 12. and last but not least ember is number 13 so so far this month of september and it's only the 17th we have adopted out 13 horses there are grain bags in those sacks [Music] so fabio is not just reacting to seeing the packed saddle but also the weight of the grain bags and the sound because it makes a different sound than anything he's used to having on his back [Music] so these are the quarantine horses they're excited every morning whenever i come up here to feed them they'll be coming out of quarantine here pretty soon so they're looking a whole lot better than what they were whenever they first came so i'm excited to see that [Music] well y'all we are truck shopping uh horseplus really needs a truck and um it just borrows vehicles at this time so we're looking at trucks and this one may be the one i don't know well we're gonna look at this truck um it might be the one we don't know the thing i like about this truck is those spikes are for putting a prevail on so get back up to hay bale drive it out and dump it and it's all hydraulic so that's really cool they're seeing what the best price they can do for us is so hopefully it's really good because this truck i think could help out our organization but only time will tell tony and jason are out of town so we decided to make a really funny video while they were gone no we did do this after work but it's pretty funny so we hope you enjoy it [Music] um um jackie [Music] do you know what's happening in the barn you know you might want to come look [Music] it looks a little suspicious [Music] so i think when the bosses are away the horses will play [Music] yup i think i confirmed it when the bosses are away the horses will play after searching and searching for a truck for horseplus we have finally found a great one and so we're filling up paperwork for it right now and then we've got the long drive back to our shelter [Music] how has your experience been at horse plus great absolutely wonderful amber and rocky are on their way to their new homes we are going to miss them a lot but we know that they will have amazing home with these ladies and we can't wait to see updates of them ember came to us last september he was a very scared stallion when he got here we couldn't approach him we couldn't put even put him in a catch pen and touch him he was just that scared he was always trying to get away from everybody and we knew that it would just take time for him to adjust he's a tennessee walking horse so we do think that there's possibility that he could have been started training for the big lick we're not quite sure about that or not but we just know that he was very scared and just needed some time thankfully jesse and shelby have given him that time and he has come so far since when he got here in the beginning now he goes over obstacles he goes in trailers he follows shelby around everywhere and he just does amazing and we are so excited that he has finally found a new home that will love him as much as we have he's been here almost a year it's hard to let him go when they've been here that long but we know that this home is just the right home for him and we are so thankful that even though he came here scared and stallion he left a gelding and so happy and just doing wonderful vet is here just checking out martha the other day she was having a little trouble with her breathing and today she seems to be doing well so we're just waiting to see what the vet has to say about that i haven't heard her talking i haven't heard her either so the outcome for martha is her breathing is doing really really well we're going to see how she does off of her medicine and see if she keeps improving part of that all the stuff that you're doing is to help draw out [Music] and he's doing so much better we're checking out the quarantine horses to make sure they can leave isolation and join the herd and so far everybody looks great so we just make sort of a slow pass through make sure nobody's limping or trying to make sure they don't have any infectious diseases that are going to be given to the other herds so other members of the herd so that's where we are i would like to introduce big red big red is the newest rescue rig at horseplus humane society we recently purchased it down in texas for use at the humane society it drove flawlessly the whole way here we were down in texas visiting my mom she just got home from about with covid and she was actually in the hospital icu and then in rehab center for two months and she almost died but i was so thankful i was able to go see her she's back home now this was just the most amazing truck we could find it has built-in tool boxes so we can just keep it permanently stocked with lead ropes and halters and everything we need to rescue horses in a variety of situations it has a hay spear on the back we can just back up to a bale of hay and push a lever inside the truck and the hay goes right on up we'll get to where we need to feed it push the lever the other direction will go right down and we drive away it has an onboard fuel tank so that we can bring diesel to the shelter for the tractor and we don't have to rely on little gas cans all in all it's just a great truck it seats six adults so our entire rescue team can go out at a moment's notice we're just very happy to introduce big red and we know it will serve us for many years to come i am in love with big red i mean our tractor is great for moving hay but i've always worried like what if the tractor breaks down how are we going to be able to move the hay and big red is able to pick up huge bales of hay drive them around put them in pastures this truck is going to be such a blessing to our organization not only for just moving hay when that needs to happen but all the horses it's going to haul back to our shelter when they've been rescued so thank you all so much for your support that made this new addition possible and i just can't thank you enough [Music] you
