I am Happy to say, Geace has settled very well. There have been training session that she has excellent with. Grace is now working with therapy clients as well as independent riders. Thriving and happy. We all love on her and know she is one very special girl.
This happened to pop up and it made me smile. I am an instructor at OATS, and can happily say Grace is thriving and one of the more popular horses on our farm. She carries a few of our clients with dignity. I personally look forward to having her in my classes. She is sweet and gentle, but most of all, she protects her riders with her heart.❤
Thanks for the update Rita, so glad to know that Grace is doing so well 😊 I hope she has a long and happy life with you, she will help so many people in so many ways.❤ from Scotland ❤
Scott has been a blessing to our organization. He treats every animal with compassion and respect. He has brought our herds an amazing gift of understanding and working with each horse, donkey and our mascot pig. He is a beautiful soul.
@@ritaobrien2779 I am glad you have him to help you. I liked the idea that Grace was going to help handicapped people.He also called her a gentle giant.
@@Brucev7 exactly. Though not all humans can be a leader that are able to lead with confidence as well as gentle compassion. Scott definitely has the ability to soothe and be the leader.
Yeah it’s the best feeling ever knowing they have a good home after everything they go through. My sister just adopted a cat that was abandoned and she gets along well with my dog it’s so cute and it makes me so happy to make a loving home for them.
Very much agreed. Grace would be happy with her new home 🏠 Animals are loving nature, gentle and adorable 🌹 Therefore please treat them with love and kindness 💚

I thought exactly the same thing, plus overcoming some bad experiences in the past, maybe... But these beautiful people loved her back to life..."Love conquers all!" 💞🐎🧍♀️🐴🧍♂️🐎💞
SCOTT❕❗️ My gosh, Scott (from O.A.T.S.) you’re a HERO. This is making me cry. I live in Seattle, WA. My older sister (passed 7yrs ago) was physically and mentally developmentally delayed and animals (also babies) were a tremendous joy for her. Many people, with their babies, would be scared of her. For example, in the grocery store, my sister would try to reach out and say hi but mom’s with their kids would pull away, undoubtedly crushing her a bit every time… just like how the kids at school, and everywhere in life, would treat her. This program and Men like Scott gave JOY, true, pure, undeniable, reliably kind, meaningful, experiences for her. I can’t even finish typing this, I miss her and this is hard to talk about, but thank you (ANYONE) who’s kind to people with disabilities. It means the world. The absolute world. ❤
@carley7184 Thank you. I never consider myself to be a hero. And you have such a beautiful story too. If you're curious about my horse journey, you can see a lot of it on my channel. Though I tell it without words. Anyway, a little update about Grace. I had to change her name to Liberty as we had just adopted a Grace just before her. She has a favorite rider who is severely handicapped a I taught Liberty to stand very still while it takes 3 people to get hom mounted. She does very well for him. However, I am no longer at OATS. I nearly ended my horse journey when I left. Now nobody knows the talents and gifts I have or even that thongs like this 👆🏼 ever happened.
@@scotthovind Sir, I don't know if you'll ever see this but have to say, I was touched by what you wrote. If that 'door closing' (at oats)was hurtful to you, I am so sorry. I look at this change as a change of season; your season with oats was finished - now a new season will begin, one even better. You know the talents and gifts you have, others you've helped do as well - and God knows! He created you!!! Please know that you are utterly and completely loved by God and that He has an amazing and wondrous plan for your life!!!
@@scotthovind That is sad. Your goodness and way with horses flooded out of that two year old Dodo video. It was very, very striking. What a loss for OATS and the people who went there to ride and spend time with the horses.
Poor Grace ... She had a cruel, scary life. Just her head alone is so scarred from mistreatment, physical abuse. Gentle giant of a girl. Happy for her to move along and be in a safe, living, caring home. Dear girl. A better life from here on. Happy story and outcome for her. And for those who will meet her and benefit from knowing her.
WOW ... What a Beautiful Girl!!! You can tell she must have been traumatized in the past....but so glad she's doing well!!! Cheers to Everyone who was involved with Gracie!!!😁😁🤯🤯🤠🤠💖💖💖💖👍👍👍👍
Kudos to Starry Skies Sanctuary and O.A.T.S. Mgr., Scott! Patience, Kindness, Selflessness: Grace's Champions, our Heroes. All the while, teaching the global community how best to heal that which ails us. Blessings, always.
God every time I see a horse video I have to steel myself for the horrible before to get to the happy after. Every time. I don’t know what happened to Grace before but I’m so glad she’s happy where she is. She deserves a little bit of heaven
What a perfect fit. Good souls helping good souls. Truly, If Gracie hadn’t have been rescued and helped both physically and emotionally, she wouldn’t have found her forever home with her Dad, where she wouldn’t be helping those with special needs. This is a perfect example of paying it forward. I’m so happy this gentle soul will be helping those in need, with the help of her new Dad. Thank you to such an amazing rescue for not giving up on Gracie. Horses are SO MUCH abuse, it can take a lot of time for them to decompress. It takes love, patience, and compassion to give that. You healed her, and are truly a blessing for animals 🥰
everyone always talking about the memory of an elephant.. but horses and donkeys get a memory and never ever forget.. and if they have trust..it may fade but returns.. to see this animal learn to trust is absolutely beautiful and her health will reflect it, without stress that is harmful if not deadly..
I'm so glad for the wonderful volunteers who rescued Grace and well took care of her. She became accustomed to the kind caretakers that she was able to be adopted out to a new home. It seemed she was happy with her new home and family of horses. It's a feel good story.
Wow...I have been blessed to be owned by horses for over 20 years. I have NEVER seen a horse so traumatized that they won't eat. Not even grain or a carrot. Poor girl. I am so glad she is better now.
Poor sweet girl…so depressed. How difficult it must be to figure out what’s wrong…what they need. Trying so hard not to do the wrong thing or make the wrong move. Everyone is so incredibly patient, caring and concerned with all these beautiful horses. God Bless you all for your dedication and commitment. ✨💖✨
After I get done, watching the news, watching the world fall apart, watching mly be loved country under attack; I come to the dodo so I can wash all that negative stuff out of my brain. Thank you, Dodo, for bringing such a healing channel to not only animals but human beings as well.
@@CreativaArtly She does indeed, i doubt it was a person she lose, but perhaps her foal, kinda like how a goose goes into depression if it lose a partner. People understimate what those brave animals have been throught, it takes patience and love to recover from their loss.
You're so right...that's it! She was grieving a loss (horse or human)... now, I see the signs + understand... Really brings home the fact that how deeply horses feel + interconnect w/us and other animals...So appreciate your post. TY! 💞🐎🧍♀️🐴🧍♂️🐎💞
That was the thought I had, too. She justs seemed to be looking for someone. She wasn't interested in the first herd because her friend was not in it. She was more in tune with the second herd, I think, because she recognised some or all of them. Maybe her friend wasn't there but she is smart enough to know that her friend found another home. Or maybe it was the whole herd she was looking for and this was it.
Many thanks to all you awesome people who care enough to show all those horses 🐎 love. Kindness and patience with the understanding that it pays off was wonderful to see. I have so happy Grace found such a wonderful fur-ever home 🏡. You are heroes in my heart. ❤🐎🐴
She seems to really like Scott and trust him! When she went in the trailer and he walked back out she kind of seemed like "wait where are you going? I wanna go with you" then her cute walk after getting off.. she just seemed way happy :)
I'm an animal lover & it hurts me to the bottom of my soul to see ANY animal that has been abused or mistreated. God only knows what Grace had gone thru before she got to this 1st rescue center. I just hope that these folks are able to get all the "kinks" ironed out. Horses are usually such gentle creatures. Sad to think that this one had been abused. God bless the folks who are working with her now.
She is so sweet and adorable. It’s great she is making huge strides and learning to trust again A big thank you to all that helped her bless you all 🙏🙏
I think when people are reading a horse/animal the right way that it's part experience, part developed skill (from spending many hours around animals) trying to understand the animals personality or character (how each animal acts and responds or reacts to different things) and part instinct. They still get it wrong but not as often as others. I've watched many people and the ones who take the time to understand an animal rather than aggressively dominate that animal do so much better in the long term. It's easy to break the trust of an animal and then you (or someone else who rescues it) have to work twice as hard to build that trust back up. It's hard to build trust if you aren't willing to spend time on building a relationship with them and trust is the foundation of any relationship. I'm so glad Grace was able to trust again and that the man in this video took the time to start building up her trust in him. Blessings, Dot
Having worked with horses years ago I know that (same for a lot of animals) it's hard when their world is altered with new surroundings. I'm happy her transition went so well.
i often wonder what goes through animal’s mind. when Grace was scared and nervous, did she see pictures in her mind, was it only somatic, or both. that they have an emotional soul is obvious :) that guy is amazing - so calm, so gentle, so connected to beautiful Grace. thank you so much to everyone who took care of her and all the lonesome spirits in this world. 🐴🐎🌷🌿🌼🌱🌷
Gorgeous horse. Interesting how she brought calmness to the new pack of horses. It's as if they wanted her to be their leader. Oh the very best of eeverything to Grace and her pack and owners. May she live long and be just a happy horse.🐎
With all the horrible news on you tube, it is so refreshing to she a beautiful anima begin to come out of a shell and begin to love life and the wonderful human who have tryed to help this majestic animal
That's great! Good to see her acclimate to her new home! There's a stable about an hour away from where we live called Small Miracles located in Kingsport Tn. They have a program for mentally handicapped kids like our daughter to come in and groom and feed the horses and walk them around the ring for about 45 minutes. She really enjoys it.
What a beautiful story! I've rescued several horses myself and nothing can match the feeling of watching one that has shut down blossom back into a happy, healthy horse!
After a lifetime of being terribly afraid of horses, I made an unexpected connection with a rescue horse my wife bought last September. I love that big fella with all my heart. Because of him I’ve decided helping horses like him and like Grace is what I want to do with the rest of my life. Just not sure how I’m going to go about it. For now, I’m just going care for our horse and see where it goes from there. I had no idea how deeply the connection with a horse was.
Grace has all the classic symptoms of being a recovering Amish workhorse. Worked to death, not really much by way of kindness in her former life, not understanding much English. She looks like she’s making great strides. Congratulations Grace! May your days be long & your pastures always green!
With all the good things that these rescue places do, it still breaks my heart when they get a scared, unhappy, malnourished animal all comfortable and blending in, then adopts them out or moves them and it seems that the animal feel abandoned all over again.
Oohhhh ... what a relief for Grace. It seems she is home at last, and a good one, thank Heaven! I can hardly wait to see her progress into the best of jobs, healing the people who need it most. All Blessings, happiness and good luck to you, Grace! ❤️. oxoxox
I had a rescue mare at one time who became a beautiful great riding wonderful horse I called her penny because she looked like a new penny in the sunlight I will never forget her
I was a little worried about Grace in the beginning even though her foster mom and her coworkers did everything they could to make her feel better. It was Grace not eating much that worried me but I am so glad this story had a very happy ending with her forever home.
🤧 aww she's so a gorgeous big girl, some animals take a little bit of extra time to get use to being rescued, and adjusting to new thing's, she's going to do well at oats that's for sure. Bless you for saving her. great video thanks 💖😁

Horses are the most gentle and humble animals that I know of.

It is so wonderful to hear that she feels comfortable immediately! It's her forever home with other horses!
I grew up with a horse, and anyone who completely understands them has my awe. I still can't read them like some people can. Beautiful creatures.
The way she is walking in the beggining, made me think that was looking for her foal, especially when she refused to eat.
I think when people are reading a horse/animal the right way that it's part experience, part developed skill (from spending many hours around animals) trying to understand the animals personality or character (how each animal acts and responds or reacts to different things) and part instinct. They still get it wrong but not as often as others.
I've watched many people and the ones who take the time to understand an animal rather than aggressively dominate that animal do so much better in the long term. It's easy to break the trust of an animal and then you (or someone else who rescues it) have to work twice as hard to build that trust back up. It's hard to build trust if you aren't willing to spend time on building a relationship with them and trust is the foundation of any relationship.
I'm so glad Grace was able to trust again and that the man in this video took the time to start building up her trust in him. Blessings, Dot

That's great! Good to see her acclimate to her new home! There's a stable about an hour away from where we live called Small Miracles located in Kingsport Tn. They have a program for mentally handicapped kids like our daughter to come in and groom and feed the horses and walk them around the ring for about 45 minutes. She really enjoys it.
I had to check her out on OATES page . They renamed her Liberty as they had a Grace join them just before . She’s doing well. Well done to all ❤
She is such a pretty girl! I'm so happy she has a wonderful new home!!!! She's a doll.
I am so happy that Grace found a forever home. It is great she is used with special needs children and adults.
She def'ly has the right name -- GRACE...and now her right 4ever home, too! Bless you all! 💞🐴💞
Animals who have been abused, don't forget. Thank you for helping Grace to move forward with kindness & ❤.
❤ Grace is such a beauty, I'm glad she is happy and has a forever home with good people.
I’m So Happy she has a sense of belonging🙏♥️. GOD BLESS YOU BOTH🎶❤️🩹❣️
God Bless all those rescue folks with HUGE hearts! 🖤👏👏👏
What a beautiful story! I've rescued several horses myself and nothing can match the feeling of watching one that has shut down blossom back into a happy, healthy horse!
God Bless Grace, I hope she joyous and thriving in her new home 🙏🏻❤️
After a lifetime of being terribly afraid of horses, I made an unexpected connection with a rescue horse my wife bought last September. I love that big fella with all my heart. Because of him I’ve decided helping horses like him and like Grace is what I want to do with the rest of my life. Just not sure how I’m going to go about it. For now, I’m just going care for our horse and see where it goes from there. I had no idea how deeply the connection with a horse was.
Grace has all the classic symptoms of being a recovering Amish workhorse. Worked to death, not really much by way of kindness in her former life, not understanding much English. She looks like she’s making great strides. Congratulations Grace! May your days be long & your pastures always green!
l love her style and color!! she's a gentle giant. She'll do well with those kids and adults !!!!!
With all the good things that these rescue places do, it still breaks my heart when they get a scared, unhappy, malnourished animal all comfortable and blending in, then adopts them out or moves them and it seems that the animal feel abandoned all over again.
Oohhhh ... what a relief for Grace. It seems she is home at last, and a good one, thank Heaven! I can hardly wait to see her progress into the best of jobs, healing the people who need it most. All Blessings, happiness and good luck to you, Grace! ❤️. oxoxox
What a GOUGOUS horse! Helping special needs children is a WONDERFUL cause! THANK YOU ALL💕💙❣💙🐶❣
She's a beauty, and he seems like a good man. In my experience, there are few judges of character better than a horse.
Thank you, Kind Humans. Grace had to learn to trust humans again. Beautiful job in making that happen for her. ❤❤❤
Love this so much. We must treat all living creatures with respect and care.
Oh she liked scott! immediately!
I had a rescue mare at one time who became a beautiful great riding wonderful horse I called her penny because she looked like a new penny in the sunlight I will never forget her
Thank you for saving her. She is such a sweetheart!
O.A.T.S. THANK U FOR ADOPTING GRACE SUCH A GOURGOUS DIGNIFIED BEAUTIFUL HORSE! 🐴💕
I was a little worried about Grace in the beginning even though her foster mom and her coworkers did everything they could to make her feel better. It was Grace not eating much that worried me but I am so glad this story had a very happy ending with her forever home.
Horses are sensitive, intelligent animals. This is sweet.
Beautiful!
Bless you all for sticking with her!
🤧 aww she's so a gorgeous big girl, some animals take a little bit of extra time to get use to being rescued, and adjusting to new thing's, she's going to do well at oats that's for sure. Bless you for saving her. great video thanks 💖😁
Wow Grace just fell in love with her new Dad. That's all it took. She wanted to go with him. So sweet🙏❤️
