Hello and happy new year to everyone! Y'all did a FANTASTIC job... Especially for your small size crew! All the adoptions were so much fun. Troy, you did a great job :) I have a feeling 2024 will be a BIG one for HSH. Each of you saves so many lives each year. Prayers and love coming your way as always 🤗💗🙏 Janice
"Normal people don't work on Jan1"? I know what you mean, Angela, but I'd say it's the cream of the crop who do: ER docs, nurses, medical techs, nursing home personnel, firefighters, policemen & women, and the like. So veterinarians & animal care workers, like you guys are right up there, too. Never feel 'less than" just because you're not 'average'. That being said, personnel shortages on holidays dictates cutting down the workload to necessities. Extra stuff, in my opinion, like adoption events, and surrenders really should wait until there is a full staff on board.
I would reword that to say Only phenomenal people work on Jan 1st. As I worked every Jan 1st, I was manager of a Pet Store, so even if we were closed I still went in and cleaned and watered all the animals twice a day, No Holidays off for me.
I'm so glad the person surrendered their old horse😊 he seems really sweet, a good forever retirement home would be wonderful❤. I liked this episode... lot's of adoptions to start the new year 🎉
I hear about horses that are more than 25 years old and my horse died when she was 21, I was 20. My parents bought her when I was 2. Fran was a quarter horse and she essentially became my baby sitter. I would ride her everywhere. There were times that she had to take care of me. I have cerebral palsy and I didn't walk as a toddler. If I fell off, Fran would protect me by walking circles around me.
Hate to complain but that was a short episode. I miss the hour long episodes. I also miss the intake episodes, where you eval each new horse. Is it just me? I love HPSH just miss the way old episodes were.
@Wendy-bd9zu l miss Dr Nancy..she was brilliant..they do really need a permanent vet not just the weekly visits by the wonderful Doc who was busy running his own practice..now they have the newly qualified vet and Dr Lydia I'm sure we'll see a lot more.. Dr Lydia used to come with Doc so we have a familiar face and she is Excellent..!!
Happy New Year everyone 🎉 So nice to see such a big adoption starting off the new year. Great to learn a little bit more about Isabella! And Black Beauty already is infamous 😅 Glad he is doing good! So excited for another year of many more rescues and adoptions - and awesome episodes of course!
I can’t tell if it’s tongue-in-cheek or not! If not, it’s weird. If so, it’s kinda fun and I like to picture it’s John doing it, but still it’s weird. Some people may be drawn in by it tho.
It was definitely strange. This kind of organisation needs an empathic intro, more related to what they do. I know our much loved HP team are heroes and warriors but the introduction doesn’t reflect the warmth they actually convey. Sorry John.
Happy 2024 from Surf City, CA🌊 This was a sweet episode with the several adoptions, a quick check in on horses during the feeding and a kind old gelding surrender - great way to start the year. And thanks to Isabella for letting us get to know her a bit more!
I agree with stardust949…..it sounds more like world of wrestling…..last years intro was much more inspiring…..but so glad you are back. And working for the best of all equines, canines and felines.
Great to see 2024 starting there. You need donations to keep your water sources thawed. Thankful adoptions started early. Really not fond of ending. Cross between info commercial and a wrestling match voice. Very Odd.. takes away from the personal connection to your cause. Hug the donkeys ❤
Having the voice-over at the start seems really over-dramatic. If you guys are going to go with a voice-over, please choose one that sounds less like the kind you'd find in 'reality' TV and those 'top 10' videos. Because if I were a new viewer, the instant I heard that voice over I would have written the series off as over-blown and dramatized thing where stuff is staged to pull in views.
Wow, everyone in the comment section is complaining about one thing or another. Is it possible to just take joy in HPHS's adoption record for 2023 and celebrate their accomplishment like the supporters we are?
No one likes to complain, but when you see or hear something that isn't as good as it was in the past it's ok to point it out, it's constructive criticism. They just want the episodes to be as good as they usually are. For example, I cant be the only one who doesn't care for the new intro, the old intro used the song Heroes by Valley of Wolves, it was a perfect song to use for what these heroes do!
Well said somebody’s always got something to complain about something is minuscule as the intro I can’t believe it with all the good that these people do
I'm so happy that some of your animals got adopted into forever loving homes and I'm so glad that you took in that 27 year old surrender he deserves to be loved and to have the rest of his life safe. 💕🐎
Hi. I thought the opening was too aggressive. I believe you wanted to show you are strong proponents of saving horses, especially from that pipeline. However the opening was really loud and off putting. It surprised me. And not in a good way. I’ve watched you all for a long time now. And I’m not even a horse person, so to speak. I’m an activist, and that especially includes animals. But I really love your work. Especially around the pipeline and that barbaric walking style. But your work is soothing. Very soothing. And that opening conflicts with what you present in your work.
No they didn't, and they didn't let any other organizations back that I know of, so they are probably just going to be gone as a significant resource for animal welfare organizations.
Not loving the new voice for the intro/outro....that's a meh for me...However, I love the show and can't wait to see how many animals are helped this year!
I am so happy for pebbles and Jester. And a mule got there for ever home. And I think the little fell in love with Pebbles right away too. And they all love Jester too. And guys thank you for all your hard work saving all these animals. All my 💕🥰❤️🤗💖😘😍❤️ to all.
I love that the kids get to test the horses. Obviously with liability waivers signed, but I'm sure many places still wouldn't let them ride. Gotta make sure they like the horse too if they're gonna be the one riding it
I’m not sure what the safe act is in the USA. Is it Drug and Alcohol Addiction Rehabilitation? @startledmayo There are so many definitions on google, I’m completely confused. From mortgage protection, banking acts, to ,ensuring businesses have access to bank accounts and prison closure savings…..
They ARE supporting the Safe Act..they mentioned it when they did the video of them going to Washington DC to get the law changed regarding the auction not checking if their animals are fit and to stop the slaughter pipeline..they actually met the congresswoman who started the Safe Act and of course they DO support it..
Encouragement instead of critics is what these people need! We are not out there in the cold and the snow facing the elements. We are not dealing with aggressive government officials standing in the way of rescuing animals. Each one of you is a hero and I applaud you for that. God bless the world did you do🙏🙏
Happy new year! I hope the later episodes are longer and do not have that almost aggressive voise in the intro and outro, it just gives me heebie jeebies.
Was watching through the old videos, every time the old intro played it would get me hyped and emotional, even though I don’t get emotional watching these videos lol. New old is not nearly as effective as the old one, I don’t feel a thing. Also, it’s honestly kind of annoying 🙃 especially when watching through multiple episodes. My two cents!
I like watching your show! You all are doing a great thing.... just wanted to give your employees a little advice, tell them to unhook the garden hoses from the water hydrants, and they shouldn't freeze up then, they will drain back in ground, but normally not with hose connected to them. Oh and dont forget to drain the hoses also. Just trying to help ya out.
I am from Switzerland and I love Watching every episode! I wanted to make a second donation but when I hit the donation button, it doesn’t continue on to the actual page i can donate. Thank you for the incredible words that you do❤
Olá á todos vocês da equipe, que vocês tenham um ótimo Ano Novo, com muita saúde paz,com muitos vídeos de resgates para nós. Um abraço para vocês. 🙋♂️🇧🇷🐎
What a great start for the new year there's nothing better for a horse than girl that loves them I would love to have one of the Rottweilers they're my favorite breed thanks for the video
Serious question. Is the cost of living really low there? I’m just curious how in this economy people can afford to feed so many horses. I live in Vancouver and can barely afford to feed myself.
I love your videos. I love your people that work there. Thank you for your love and compassion for the animals. Your doing more for the animals than they realize! ❤thank you and blessings from OKC, Oklahoma.
Can't stand the new voice over. Sounds like the old show America's most wanted its horrible.😮
Pebbles little girl is going to need a rope ladder 😂 Jester is a beautiful mover and they will be just lovely together!
I think Pebbles found her girl! She was so careful and gentle walking that precious cargo around! ❤
Jester is ready for some trails!
I was smiling so hard from ear to ear that my cheeks started cramping! 😂
What fun adoptions, the little girls and their new horses were adorable...and what a great start for Wrinkles...awesome job kids...!
Hello and happy new year to everyone! Y'all did a FANTASTIC job... Especially for your small size crew! All the adoptions were so much fun. Troy, you did a great job :) I have a feeling 2024 will be a BIG one for HSH. Each of you saves so many lives each year. Prayers and love coming your way as always 🤗💗🙏 Janice
The intro and outro sound aggressive and don't match the loving care of those involved in Horse Plus.
"Normal people don't work on Jan1"? I know what you mean, Angela, but I'd say it's the cream of the crop who do: ER docs, nurses, medical techs, nursing home personnel, firefighters, policemen & women, and the like.

I'm so glad the person surrendered their old horse😊 he seems really sweet, a good forever retirement home would be wonderful❤. I liked this episode... lot's of adoptions to start the new year 🎉
Those droopy ears were adorable. I hope Dr Lydia can give him a clean bill of health, and that he has some good years left in him.
Im feeling warm and happy about all the adoptions this episode. 😊🐴🐎
Agree the voice over at the beginning and end is a bit much but i think it is John having some fun.
I like Troy, he’s really come along in his presentation skills- he’s definitely gained in confidence, what a nice genuine guy.
Miss Pebbles clearly moved more gently unde the young lady
Time for heat tape and foam pipe insulators for the outside water spickets
I hear about horses that are more than 25 years old and my horse died when she was 21, I was 20. My parents bought her when I was 2. Fran was a quarter horse and she essentially became my baby sitter. I would ride her everywhere. There were times that she had to take care of me.

Watching from Australia 🇦🇺 so glad your back happy new year
Hate to complain but that was a short episode. I miss the hour long episodes. I also miss the intake episodes, where you eval each new horse. Is it just me? I love HPSH just miss the way old episodes were.
I feel the same way. I liked the long episodes and the intakes as well.
I think now they have 2 vets 24/.7 that they WILL be showing us the full intake videos and more vet stuff too..
I mis doc
@Wendy-bd9zu l miss Dr Nancy..she was brilliant..they do really need a permanent vet not just the weekly visits by the wonderful Doc who was busy running his own practice..now they have the newly qualified vet and Dr Lydia I'm sure we'll see a lot more.. Dr Lydia used to come with Doc so we have a familiar face and she is Excellent..!!
Long episodes coming up, we were quite short staffed in the media department over the holidays. :)
Happy New Year everyone 🎉 So nice to see such a big adoption starting off the new year. Great to learn a little bit more about Isabella! And Black Beauty already is infamous 😅 Glad he is doing good! So excited for another year of many more rescues and adoptions - and awesome episodes of course!
Happy new year. God bless 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦
I think your intro and voice over at the end sound too much like video games or some kind of Wrestling Championship. It's just a bit jarring.
I can’t tell if it’s tongue-in-cheek or not! If not, it’s weird. If so, it’s kinda fun and I like to picture it’s John doing it, but still it’s weird. Some people may be drawn in by it tho.
I was a bit jarred by it as well. I will probably get used to it but it was a bit of a shock 🫨, 😆.
It was definitely strange. This kind of organisation needs an empathic intro, more related to what they do. I know our much loved HP team are heroes and warriors but the introduction doesn’t reflect the warmth they actually convey.
Sorry John.
Yes, definitely not the voice I'm used to. 😮
I agree. Doesn’t match the mission of Horse plus. Needs to be a softer introduction and ending
Looking forward to this.. watching from Australia so it’s actually 9 am Friday the 12th here, at time of posting this. 😊😊🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘
same -- on the Goldy here
Happy 2024 from Surf City, CA🌊 This was a sweet episode with the several adoptions, a quick check in on horses during the feeding and a kind old gelding surrender - great way to start the year. And thanks to Isabella for letting us get to know her a bit more!
I don't care for the voice of. It doesn't sound right. I love the videos.
The other opening was wayyyy better. This one is aggressive and obnoxious.
Please use your old intro! Heroes by Valley of Wolves was a perfect fit for your channel!
Happy New Year to All🎉
I agree with stardust949…..it sounds more like world of wrestling…..last years intro was much more inspiring…..but so glad you are back. And working for the best of all equines, canines and felines.
Watching from the U.K. It is 11pm here right now. The episode starts at 12.30am.
Not long now its 12.20am now 🇬🇧😊
Great to see 2024 starting there. You need donations to keep your water sources thawed.
Thankful adoptions started early.
Really not fond of ending. Cross between info commercial and a wrestling match voice. Very Odd.. takes away from the personal connection to your cause.
Hug the donkeys ❤

I am well aware of that, but thanks.

This is a celebratory video. Just be kind.
@@joannepantale483 Not sure wtf in my comment was UNKIND, if you cant deal with constructive criticism, crawl back to bed joe!

Happy New Year everybody at Horse Plus! What a fantastic episode to start the year. On to many more saved animal!
Love the show guys, watch every season... im being nice but the intro and outro dont need to be so dramatic
Yikes that intro and outro, suggestion, getting a new person each week to do it. 😅
I am surprised you do not have more subscribers.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😘
Hi. I thought the opening was too aggressive. I believe you wanted to show you are strong proponents of saving horses, especially from that pipeline. However the opening was really loud and off putting. It surprised me. And not in a good way.

The voice work sounds like this is a wrestling video. If you can do something about this it will make listening more enjoyable.
What ever happened to Pet Finder? Did they allow you guys back?
No they didn't, and they didn't let any other organizations back that I know of, so they are probably just going to be gone as a significant resource for animal welfare organizations.
Not loving the new voice for the intro/outro....that's a meh for me...However, I love the show and can't wait to see how many animals are helped this year!
Keep up the great work
I liked the old intro more then the new one..😅😢
Hi everyone, from Iowa. It's cold here.
I agree about the sound...I really dislike it!
Loved the episode and what you do- not loving the new Into and ending… the voice just doesn’t set the right feel for me -
Happy New Year to all at Horse Plus Heroes🥂🇺🇸👍Cape Town South Africa 🐐🥂🇿🇦🌈
I am so happy for pebbles and Jester. And a mule got there for ever home. And I think the little fell in love with Pebbles right away too. And they all love Jester too. And guys thank you for all your hard work saving all these animals. All my 💕🥰❤️🤗💖😘😍❤️ to all.
I agree. I’m not sure I like the voice overs. Sorry.
I love the old intro! I feel the voice over in the beginning is to commercially tho
Ok , that puppy with the black ear is PRECIOUS
I love that the kids get to test the horses. Obviously with liability waivers signed, but I'm sure many places still wouldn't let them ride. Gotta make sure they like the horse too if they're gonna be the one riding it
Hi everyone ❤
Thank you for a fabulous rescue year Horse Plus!
👏❤️👏
I hate the new intro and outro.....
I miss the old intro, it suited the vibe better
Great start to the new year. 🤣The voice at the end cracked me up, lol.
all those cute dogs made me cry, because yesterday i had to put my dog to sleep
love the new intro...but not so fond of the ending, it is sort of a dramatic voice for an ending! Great job on those adoptions!!!!
Awesomeness ❤❤❤
Coast of South Carolina here....7:30 pm.
Curious about how you guys feel about the safe act? I’m surprised you guys aren’t pushing for the bill to be passed. With such a large platform
I’m not sure what the safe act is in the USA. Is it Drug and Alcohol Addiction Rehabilitation? @startledmayo
There are so many definitions on google, I’m completely confused. From mortgage protection, banking acts, to ,ensuring businesses have access to bank accounts and prison closure savings…..

Thank you!! all you amazing people for the great work you do. From a hot and sunny Cape Town.😎🙆💞

We are not dealing with aggressive government officials standing in the way of rescuing animals. Each one of you is a hero and I applaud you for that. God bless the world did you do🙏🙏
Love that you guys saved so many horses last year!
Good to see cute little pupups getting new homes
Pebbles would have been a great horse for me but she found a wonderful home with a beautiful little girl.
Please see to the puppies before adult dogs to avoid viral/bacterial transfer to the puppies 🙂
We have sound now.
🎉Thank you beautiful family, for taking 3 critters home with you!! ❤
hi Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
Please DO reply. Why adopt miss pebbles. She is clearly still underweight
Wow this is amazing!!! 2278 precious souls saved alby these beautiful people. Thank you for all you do.
Happy new year! I hope the later episodes are longer and do not have that almost aggressive voise in the intro and outro, it just gives me heebie jeebies.

Great episode as always. Congratulations on your awesome achievement of saving so many animals during 2023.
I like watching your show!

This week on gold rush cough cough I mean horse shelter hero’s
Why no pictures of the rest of the critters that were adopted to that family, who took Pebbles.. I was looking forward to seeing better 😮
🎉Thank you dear lady, for taking Serena home with you❤
What a great start for the new year there's nothing better for a horse than girl that loves them I would love to have one of the Rottweilers they're my favorite breed thanks for the video
looking at adoption cards, are those puppies 5 weeks old being adopted?
Serious question. Is the cost of living really low there? I’m just curious how in this economy people can afford to feed so many horses. I live in Vancouver and can barely afford to feed myself.
They also get funded and use fundraisers to care for the horses
I challenge every subscriber to donate at least one dollar to horse plus rescue
you guys could use black beauty as a promo horse,,hes very special
Loved this video! Great start to a new year! 😊
Like an aspca commercial in the middle there! Well done!
Puppy avalanches are the best.
Didn’t show much of the mule?
Hi there.. Kalamazoo Michigan here❤
Not liking the edits lately, to much
I love your videos. I love your people that work there. Thank you for your love and compassion for the animals. Your doing more for the animals than they realize! ❤thank you and blessings from OKC, Oklahoma.
I love drafts there gentle giants
Watching from ILLINOIS. Congratulations on your adoption 🎉🎉🎉🎉.
