The Smallest horse I'd ever seen meets Iris
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ก.ค. 2020
- Looking for a compagnon for Nano, a weak tiny horse I had rescued, I came across another mini horse in dire need of care and kind attention. I named her Iris, for her eyes, and we walked and walked until she got healthy.
Update per 16th of august:
I've again discussed the risks involved with my vet and she still thinks Iris will be a healthy mom. But there is always a risk and after careful consideration, I do agree with some of the advice given by our community, that it is best to guild Nano. This will give them a peaceful and stable staying together and that’s what I believe is best for them now. Thanks for your kind involvement and care for these animals.

His name is alwyn wilson
Yea
True, his life must be great
Some Guy piriod❤️
*The big horses were like:* Wow! Hobbits!
I felt that, 4'8" here
Lol, yes. If they do end up with a baby, they should name it Bilbo or Frodo.
@@Tanukibby oof
😅😂🤣
Big horses:damn they tiny!!!!!what r they..??
Nano & Iris:we r horses...smol horses
Oh so very smol..
Imagine feeling so small, alone, and mistreated all of your life and a man comes and not only takes away the pain but brings someone else just like you to be your friend. I can't stop crying from how happy I am to see what you've done for these two lovely souls. You are a true angel. Bless you and all you care about.
DID YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THIS MAN WHO RESCUED THE DWARFTED HORSES
NOW WANTS TO BREED THE FAULTY GENE TO MAKE ANOTHER DWARFED OR WORSE
OFF HORSE WITH MORE PROBLEMS, DEFECTS AND SO ON. THIS MAN IS CRAZY.
@@darlingsapphire1 Does all caps make you feel like someone is more likely to listen to what you're saying? It seems like perhaps you're the one with the "faulty" gene.
Seeing the update, in the Description Box, he stated it was in the best interest of both horses' health to get Nano gelded
Gelded, was misspelled in the Description Box...
@@darlingsapphire1 Go take a chill pill karen
You made me cry with your comment.
Horses are incredibly social animals, it’s great that they found a friend!
Imagine walking on the street and seeing a man walk his 2 cute horses
It would be awsome
I would love to see that happen anywhere possible
I wish I lived near there, then if I saw him, I could just be like, "oh, hello! How are you today? Can I pet your mini horses? Or your birds? Or something?" There are just animals. It's fantastic.
Might become THREE cute horses
A handsome Dutchman walking 2 cute mini horses!! 😍😍😍
I laughed when the curious big horses gathered together to stare at the tiny couple 🤣 They were all so cute!!!
萌萌噠梁童鞋 , me too! So cute! lol
same!
Me too bro so cute 😍 and funny 🤣
The big horses are all curious about the small couple...and maybe wondering where did they come from 🤣🤣🤣 just like humans...
I know I wish this man, his ponies, and his birds a long happy life. Once I can get a credit card I will consider joining his patreon to fund his animal saving endeavors.
Angels come in many sizes and forms. I believe you are one.
Thank you……
So true❤
Seriously, you NEED to make more videos about them!!!
Yes, we need to know ! Did they have a foal ? What happened !
Yes! We need to know!
By the looks of poor Iris’s back, it looks like she’s been ridden. That’s probably why she’s so afraid of people. So horrible to do to a mini.
Nope. Just age.
@@paillette2010 You don't know that
Quackadoodledoo yes I do. I work with actual horses. Ffs.
@@paillette2010 yeah, but you don't know its age, it could be something totally different
Johanna Zamora so do I. I work with minis and larger horses. We don’t know Iris’s age and even if it wasn’t age, it wouldn’t explain why she was so afraid of people getting close to her.
The size of this guy's heart:
*infinite*
Yes
Heart is infinite always just we have to share our feelings
He1Io , I disagree. If he cared and had a little more of a brain, he wouldn’t breed them. Rescue is one thing.... that is another. He doesn’t even have a place to live. Geez.
@@NChant101 not everyone is educated about breeding minis. He didn't know so he corrected his mistake. He's a human just like all of us, we make mistakes, we aren't perfect like robots.
I Giorno have a piano , he corrected his mistake? Must have missed that. Video said he wanted to breed.
I searched your videos for more on the tiny horses but there are none? Would you please do an update video on them? They're adorable! Thank you so much for all you do for all the animals you come in contact with in your life! You're amazing!
I would love to know it, too: what happened? There are no more videos about them after this... 😢
He uses the animals for views, then on with the next. Despicable.
Yeah, I don’t have a good feeling. Makes me angry.
He shows himself brushing one of them to get hair for a squirrel den in a video recently. Called “they got kicked out and feeding them every 3 hours”.
You guys really think he’s despicable?! SMH. 🤦🏼♀️
If I had the money, I would buy an animal sanctuary for this man with everything he'd ever need for life. We owe it to ourselves as a species and to our planet, to make sure this man, his girls, and his animals are blossoming ♡♡♡ Love it what it's all about. As soon as I'm able, I'll support you on Patreon. May the universe bless you for who you are and what you do. Your heart is far larger than many galaxies. May more of us strive to live how you do.

Because of him, I got a quail and named him Jordan. Jordan is a 2 year old quail. He has gone through many losses. (All the quails he grew up with sadly passed away)
I cannot express how cute these two are. Like, I want all the updates.
Iris was neglected - and then you made her life take a 180° turn to the best, giving her a friend and nice home as well as showing her that not all humans are bad. You deserve to be called an angel!
“The big horses were fascinated by the small couple”
Well, yea, they were literally GAWKING at them XD

yesh UmU
Con: You can't ride them.
Pro: You can taket them for a walk!
people take horses for walks, but i know what you mean
@Mel Hawk you'd need a good sized team, at least 4-6 and at that point it's too expensive to keep them all just for a buggy pull team, they're strong but the bone structure is still at play, their joints are little so they need the load split a LOT between them
@@Tsakeli how do you know so much? Do you work with horses?
@Squiggles at our local fair we have a man that has two as a buggy team (and has been keeping shetlands for longer than I've been alive) they're fine pulling a buggy and a full grown man between just the two of them. They often do 2 or 3 short shows a day during the fair.
But babies can ride them! :)
I’d love an update on Nano & Iris! ❤
Me too
Yeah, I’m thinking she never had a baby and maybe he doesnt have them anymore
@@valeriereneeharper I love this guy, but breeding tiny Iris...why? Poor little horse. I hope he simply had Nano gelded.
@@user-qr8ki8ue4i In the description box he said he decided to have Nano gelded, so no babies.
@@user-qr8ki8ue4i
In the video it's very clear that he didn't want to but since the 2 horses were always together, he was worried that it would eventually happen. Pay more attention to what you watch.
I started sobbing as soon as you were hollering and stroking her face in the truck. You are a hero to these animals. Thank you.
AS LONG AS HE DOESN'T BREED THESE DWARFED TWO AS THEY ARE THE OUTCOME
OF A FAULTY GENE, AND THEY WILL SUFFER WITH HEALTH PROBLEMS.
hollering?
@R S
Hollering means to shout loudly & often angrily or crazily.
I think she meant “hauling,” which isn’t the precise correct word either, as “to haul” is to carry a great weight usually with difficulty. I guess he could “haul” her in, but “carry” would fit better.
@R S
If I’m correct in what she meant to say, it would better be, “carrying into and stroking her face in the truck,” as that implies “carrying into [the truck] & stroking her face in the truck.”
I think you meant "holding" ;D
As someone who's family owned a horse rescue for many years, this makes me so happy. Minis are so neglected because they're so small and people think because they're small, they're easy when that is NOT the case. He did such a good job bringing them back from where they started
Bless you as well for rescuing horses. Thank you so much.
Same with purebred dogs. They end up messed up, neglected & dumped into pounds & shelters all the time. I think breeders are the WORST.
Kathy Florcruz I agree. That’s why I’m a little curious and surprised that he would want to breed his tiny horse. If there is one tiny horse to be rescued, then there are others too. Why not rescue another horse?
@@remmary100 I would DEFINITELY rather he rescue another horse instead of allowing her to breed. If he can afford a third horse that is. This video is just so beautiful.
Same with hamsters and fish
He really needs a ranch like home to continue helping animals on a larger scale.
A ranch? In the Netherlands? Very difficult. This tiny country is overcrowded and empty space is scarce, housing prices are very high. We should arrange a crowdfunding for him so he could buy an already existing farm and change it into a sanctuary or have one built..
@AZROF Look at the time between the videos he posts though, it's usually about once a week, yeah he gets a lot of views and if I had to guess a lot of active sub viewership. But if I had to guess his videos don't get promoted all that often by YT's algorithm since his videos are showing us what he wants to show us rather than what he believes the algorithm will promote. For example, I've been watching him for a better part of the year although anything new of his doesn't appear in my recommended, not to mention the reason most people on YT/Twitch have stuff like patreon/direct donations is because the ads from the platforms, especially YT, do not generate a lot of money. For content creators most of their money really comes from the selling of merch and doing other stuff like that, which some just choose not to because they either just post videos as a hobby or because of other things. We don't really know if he actually has the videos monetized as well or the amount he makes, please don't assume just because a content creator is popular that they have money to spend.
@@lonewarri0r237 okay
@Transitive Wisdom perhaps this is where he could use some help. After all he has the actual care of these tiny horses. Just thinking.
TAKE THOSE ANIMALS TO THE RANCH!! (The only difference is that this ranch is the complete opposite of "the ranch".
When I first saw the back leg issue I thought it was probably a stifle lock. the stifle is designed to lock, so that horses can sleep on their feet, but sometimes this locks when it's not suppose to. which can be due to poor nutrition or lack of proper exercise. Either way I am glad you fixed it. I had a pony with it and she had an injection into the stifle that fixed it for her. I'm glad you had her checked before considering breeding, but if you decide not to breed, why not geld the stallion? he would be a happier horse gelded and able to stay with his paddock mate, than kept entire and be isolated.
You are a gift to the animal world and inspiring to anyone who has compassion and love for animals. Thank you so much for being such a good example to us all ❤️
As someone who's worked with horses, mini horses are a terror to take care of; health wise at least. Their unique congenital health issues can be worked around, with a lot of surgery for the ones with limb problems at least.
Topping it off with people don't know how to breed healthy animals, they go for cute looks, and we end up with deformed and sick animals.
Personally I would try and get the bloodline papers for each horse, so if you do end up breeding them (I would recommend just castrating Nano) you can know what you're in for and prepare with your vet during the pregnancy.
It seems that nano already looks castrated to me. If he was a stallion, she’d already be bred.
It’s sad that folks would bred animals for their own selfishness. There are so many that get abandoned and neglected after the initial appeal wears off. I think folks should stop breeding animals this way. Health and quality of life first!
@@HopeCreekConnemara I was thinking the same too, since Nano isn't displaying the usual stallion characteristics (personality and physical traits), but I would assume the vet would definitely know if he was gelded or they wouldn't have bothered checking Iris's reproduction chances.
As a side note sometimes if mare doesn't want to be bred, for whatever reason, then she can and will fight a stallion off.
Where did you get that history and knowledge from
@@miao2572 Yes, "health and quality of life first" and that's exactly what this guy dedicates his life to.
Nano was at death's door and nursed back to health against all the odds. Iris was not housed adequately, not exercised, and was terrified of people. Now their vet says she is fit to have *a foal* and Nano to father one. Nobody said they were going to exploit them or start a foal factory !
You just gotta love this man and don’t forget his kids for helping him.
The vet also
Brent Bedra - yes! So many negative comments on this site! The guy is obviously very compassionate and also very responsible. He consults the vet all the way.
I wish people would stop being so opinionated. He's a responsible guy, it's his decision.
What a kind soul you are, and how many lives you have helped. A voice for those without. This is truly what life is about, and why any of us are here.
Love can make such a difference to animals. They feel so much.

Love how nano took a look at the dog and said “yep, I know a horse when I see one”

And the dogs were like:
Ok, follow us if u want, strange looking dog or cat or sheep or whatever you are?!🤔🐶

And the dog is like "wtf?!"
This guy is amazing, i wish all humans would aspire to be like him, we need nature and its inhabitants
I almost cried when you rescued Iris & were comforting her in the truck - she looked like she felt safe for the first time in ages 😢
Imagine going down the street or having a beach day and you just see a guy walking 2 mini horses
Yeah 😆
My neighbors own two mini horses we see them at the park when walking our dogs.
I see it often! I live in the sticks though and several neighbors have horses. Including minis...
my heart broke when she tried running away from you when you bought her. She was so scared
A horse will frequently avoid an approach from a stranger. My thoroughbred wouldn’t allow the farrier near him (on occasions where I couldn’t be present) unless a peanut butter sandwich was offered.
@@jandrews6254 a bribe

I'm so Glad you took IRIS away from that cage, and gave her home where she is Loved, and cared for
Yeah , She was being live like other horse and she didnt like it , Now see living like having a family at home , She have friend now.

You really are an angel to every single animal you've rescued, and many more to come! Thank you for everything you do! Nano and Iris are exceptionally beautiful together ❤️
I loved seeing Iris leap over those logs! I can’t get over how good they look. The braids on Iris with her sweet Babydoll collar is just adorable. And Nano looks so happy.
And just imagine he is raising his children to be as compassionate and passionate as he is. Together I can only imagine the many many lives they will restore to wellness.
God's Blessings.
god isnt real. thats why they are doing "god's" "work" for "him"
RoyisDaBEST people like you complain when christians force their religion on others (which is wrong ofc), but your here doing just that, forcing your belief on this person. A bit hypocritical huh.
@@quantumlaziness
Indeed.
@@quantumlaziness Yeah. Its hard to believe in god if you have never believed in god. Thats probably why some atheists act like this.
I would not recommend breeding mini horses, as they have a lot of health issues. But thank you for rescuing them! (edit: I know he will make the best decisions for his horses with the proper guidance! I love A Chick Called Albert! Those of you who are criticizing him instead of trying to help/offer advice aren't being productive)
I just knew this, but what are the health issues? Is it really risky??
@@kurarisanamie Yeah it is. The mother can die giving birth, the anatomy as a whole, congenital issues with the foal, there could be surgeries necessary to fix the anatomy,...
He doesn't have papers for those ponies since they're rescues. He doesn't know their illnesses or genetic defects. And nano even was really sick. Iris was heavily lame. Breeding them is no better than any backyard breeder. And he has no stable place for them or himself. He has no experience or knowledge in equine care.
He is basically doing the same, what brought those two into the world.
It's honestly a nightmare.
@@JustNatax3 ooh, I see. Thanks for the explanation :D
@@JustNatax3 yes exactly it is very dangerous might be the female horse carry binding problems and it become very weak
@@kurarisanamie Exactly what Nati said! Genetics for mini horses aren't great either, there are a lot of risks in terms of birth defects and issues (can't remember exactly, but i think mini horses have an increased risk of jaw deformities and spinal deformities)

My god you are an animal angel you were sent to all these little babies do not stop please from Ireland ❤
Can we all take a quick moment to appreciate the vet? She's amazing!
I know right

Yes
I really want to thank her
I wanna be a vet so I can stick my hand up horses bum
"I really thought he wouldn't make it."
She clearly hasn't seen this channel before
well this channel isn't all miracle too.
@@neverendingchan7878 yes it is! He saves 100s of animals all the time
She doesn't know what is TH-cam 😂
@@libbysanimals_8306 I think the point was that he loses some, too - as is to be expected when dealing with animals who have serious challenges. He has posted a few times about animals he's been unable to keep alive, but obviously he's not going to post about most of those cases, as nobody wants to watch heartbreaking videos.
It's amazing this man is able to save as many animals as he does, and it's great that he shares those stories with the world, but it's important not to think every animal can be saved. I wouldn't be surprised if he loses at least as many as he saves (if not more) - that's just how tough nature can be, and it speaks volumes about the determination, compassion, and fortitude of a man who can bear the pain of those losses and keep trying anyway. I'm sure he would be the first to tell you some animals simply won't make it no matter what you do. At least he gives each animal their best shot.
@@nicked_fenyx Spot on. that was what I'm trying to say. yes he did rescue animals, but not all animal under his care survived, regardless, he still took care of the animal even though they don't survive. its more on mother nature, but this guy is a savior.
(Don't take my comment in a bad way tho :) )
Thank you for ALL OF THE Souls you have saved. Your heart is oversized and it is wonderful to behold. I am thankful for the thought and love you have poured into the well-being of creatures that you continue to help. I couldn't do it. It would break my heart. I am so thankful for people like you, who actually make lives better. You must take great pride in your family!!!
Enjoyed every moment!!! Thank-You once again for sharing.
The best thing to wake up this early: watch this miracle man

Remember that horses can still have false pregnancies and they can get quite the grass belly so check up with a vet if you have a suspicion of the mare, Iris being preggos

Don't animals also die on this channel?
** It’s very rare that he would show that in a video though
@@julielove370 But he shows it, that's what I'm saying.
Yes n he usually warns us at the start of the video too
As much as having a foal from the two of them would be wonderful and exciting, i myself wouldn't be able to justify it for a few important reasons. As an animal welfare advocate (formally with horses but now i'm in neonate/feral kitten rescue) our purpose and goal is to help the millions of animals out there that need help, not make more. Not having a permanent place to live with the horses greatly increases my feeling about this.
A simple solution that would be best for both horses and allow them to stay together, in the long run, would be to simply geld the colt. By gelding Nano you cut his risk of testicular cancer down to 0. A friend's stallion developed this and it was a painful, ugly battle that ended Dezi's life at the age of 7. Had he been gelded, he would have most likely lived well into if not past his 20s (my mares lived to be 32 and 34, bless them). Gelding also makes them more manageable and less frustrated making for a happier horse. And who wouldn't want an awesome gelding over an okay stallion?
Bottom line, if you for sure want a baby from Iris and Nano (who wouldn't--they're priceless!), in my opinion after years of experience with horses and animal welfare, waiting until you are sure you have a place for 3 minis would be better than moving forward with breeding right now. Regardless, i wish you nothing but the best and truly appreciate what you have done for Iris and Nano. Thank you.
@stayce-rene - What a refreshing, balanced comment! ACCA and his cherished little treasures will be well provided for and looked after. 👍😄
Yes. This 💯 percent
Um
Damn you know your shit eh?
I 100% agree with your comment, and I don't mean to hate on it in any way, but using an anecdote as an argument for castration is kind of insane. You can't use a one-time-case study to determine what should be done with everybody. Otherwise that would also be applicable to humans. "All guys should be castrated after they have their desired amount of children, because every year 10 000 men in the US get diagnosed with it, and in this way the risk can be reduced to 0"
Thank you for caring and falling in love with these 2 beautiful animals
Thank you for loving them

They blossomed amazingly. Like different horses. Bless you sir it takes an extrordinary soul to do your work.
Just because they are min-Horses, doesn't mean they aren't a Horse. They same sweet faces and all the love and loyalty of their Larger species. Congratulations, you have made so many people happy with your love and those beautiful Horses.
They’re super cute, but if they were mine, I’d personally geld little Nano. Foals are wonderful, but gelding has so many benefits, both for the health and behavior of male horses.
So would you castrate a little person? They're so small and have so many health problems, do we really need to have more of them? 🤔 That's exactly what y'all sound like.
Y'all idiots talking about castrating that poor male horse just because he's tiny and there may be some risks involved, y'all sound like a bunch of nuts. Selfish nuts.
Both Iris and Nano are perfectly healthy and they have every right to be parents if they and nature deem it necessary. It's not really any of yours or anyone else's business on whether or not they breed. Let them be. Stop trying to get him to cut off that poor horse's junk.
@@wlf-kidri7008 That is extremely irresponsible talk. Those kinds of horses were created by human selection, don't try to compare that to actual humans or animals in the wild, its not "nature". Also, you sound very uneducated about spay and neuter, company animals benefit a lot from it in a health perspective, lowering cases of cancer for ex. the animal doesn't "miss out" on anything because they just don't work like that like us humans, the process is very simple and nothing to pity the animal about. Selfish is applying human concepts to animals instead of putting their health first... we should not keep breeding traits we know are damaging for the animal (and that WE selected) just because we think is cute
@@wlf-kidri7008 It's crazy how egocentric people are. Just because you are interested in sex, you think it's the best for every living being. Keep in mind that animals can't make conscious choices about sex, they can't contracept and don't have family planning. That's the huge differences between humans and non-human animals.
@Irene Baldwin you know that we dont need to cut off his pp, we just have to prevent the male horse from any kind of sexual behavior but i know its hard but its worth it
LeeEllen Hagedorn , we call it ‘ brain surgery ‘ lol
I worked at a stable when I was a kid and we had one miniature horse...he was just the sweetest most lovable animal I've ever encountered. In a town near where I live their is a blind man who has a miniature horse who has been trained to act like a guide dog. Not only does this little horse provide a very workable alternative to the usual guide dog in many areas he is actually superior. His owner has even used him to guide him through the busy streets of NYC, including the elevator to the top of the Empire State Building! It is awesome to watch this tiny horse guide his owner through the mall!
That's heart-warming, bless them
Image how much training have been done instead of letting him live as normal horse.
Y T I don't doubt that your comment is well meaning. Nonetheless your assumption that horses would prefer to live a "normal" life is simply not a foregone conclusion. Many horses I've worked with over the years have seemed eager to learn and pick things up very quickly. This by no means indicates that I am defending some of the hideous training practices used to "train" show horses, etc. I despise all efforts to modify a horse's basic nature. But in my experience animal intelligence in general, and horse intelligence in particular, is far superior to what many people think and intelligent animals (horses being one of them) seem to enjoy learning as much or more than humans!
@@boatman222345 thanks for your explanation. Despite of mini breed itself is more likely have skeletal problems, I am personally against using animals as tool. Surely they are intelligent animals, but doesn't matter intelligent or not, I guess they will prefer living as a horse instead of walking on a busy city road every day.
Putting me on?😁did it drive too ?
Thank you for taking these 2 minis out of their horrible former homes and giving them good health, confidence, happiness and a new lease on life!
I loved how you nursed both back to health. You are a loving, kind man.
I truly hope you didn't go ahead and make Iris have a baby. I'm not sure what your reasoning was...but it seems a bit cruel to make an animal pregnant "just because."
I know in my heart you aren't that type of man, really wanted to know your reasons.
I'm so happy for both sweet horses.

Fun fact: Tiny pony foals are nearly as large as the mother sometimes.
One of the cutest videos you’ve ever made ❤️ I’m so glad you saved them!
Love your videos .I adore horses all animals birds you are lucky to have some ground for them.God Bless You and of corse the beautiful animals especially my favourite the horses. BUT ALL OF YOU.
Us seeing this guy:
“You are a good man, thank you”
Its amazing how after a bit of training, the muscles got better
It's a miracle I know but probably this was filmed a year or a few months ago
Unjoyest not the last part the last part was filmed during pandemic you could see
Them doing social distencing
it's called common sense
There are so few like you ❤ I wish I had the resources to help animals in need like this.
Such a heart warming video, thanks. You certainly saved them from a horrible fate 💕 Some people buy a small animal thinking it cute and will be easy to look after, but then neglect it when they realise it's as much work as a big one.
WHOAA, SHE HAS A REALLY BEAUTIFUL EYES, IRIS IS SOOO PERFECT TO BE HER NAME.
Yes i think the same😍
Yes me too
Calm down
Roblox : clUb IRIS
I honestly expected the sudden shock for Iris to have been she already WAS pregnant when she'd been picked up. I'm glad she was only just lame and needed muscle training, a pregnancy in her original condition could have killed her, I bet
I am in tears! I wish more excellent and lovely people like you existed! ❤❤❤❤❤
Even the horses were surprised to see this little duo among them 😊💕
I don't mean to ruin all the fun but I really hope, that he doesn't breed them. They really don't need a foal to be happy.
Ever wondered why you don't see such small horses in the wild? It's because they were specifically bred to look like this. Over and over. Same as pugs for example. And such inbreeding results in a lot of diseases. Which was clearly shown in Nano's case. I'm sure there are some perfectly healthy miniature horses out there. But personally, I hope he doesn't risk it. Iris and Nano seem to be living a perfect and happy life. There is simply no need for a foal. Especially considering the risks.
I get your point but Shetlands are naturally small and just evolved that way
I agree with you.
ain't your choice bub, hes the owner of those animals.
*u know there’s a reason donkeys shouldn’t talk*
It’s probably not about purposely breeding but if they’re together then there’s a chance it can happen. As with any breed of horse, cat, dog etc, breeding has its risks. If you’re trying to continue a breed so its bloodline doesn’t die out it has to be pure bred. That has it’s issues. But letting different breeds make babies has other health risks too. Differences between the two can create odd mixes that are no healthier than their purebred relatives. Yes adoption is important. So is responsible ownership and also responsible breeding and care of animals. Try to adopt but if you cannot (because they don’t have a rescue/shelter/sanctuary, they’re a breed not readily seen up for adoption, you’re not able to handle an animal with possible emotional or mental baggage, or you have specific allergy needs that mean you can only have certain types) then responsible breeders are the way to go. Do your homework. Visit the place where the animals are kept and bred. Check for certifications. Look at reviews. Talk to a veterinarian you trust. And don’t rush the process. Illegal backyard breeding and people who abuse or neglect animals are truly horrible people . There should be stronger laws in the books against people who hurt animals and it should be taken more seriously than it is currently.
When I grow up I hope I can save animals like you
Maybe made some TH-cam videos about it when you grow up, I wanna see how you do well with it
Same specially dogs
“YOU” ARE AN ANGEL SENT TO THESE PRECIOUS LITTLE HORSES ❤️😘🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😘❤️Thank you & your family for giving them LOVE & LIFE😘❤️Barbara (S.E. OHIO USA)
This is a beautiful story. I thank you for helping all those who are in need from squirrels to these sweet neglected horses the love and kindness you show is wonderful indeed! Thank God for you and those like you! ✨❤️✨
Having a baby mini horse might be wonderful, but I personally think that saving another one might be a better option. There are so many mini horses kept in bad conditions like Iris...
Your videos are amazing. Thank you for everything
I love that he finally monetised his videos! I wish he would add some more ads though, I would 100% watch them all
No, death to ads.
@@encendercolores1684 but ads help support creators and lets them do great stuff like this
Yeees
Awwww, so sweet. This is beautiful scenery!!!
God bless you for your kindness !
Common people: _Ah, leave that stray dog_ ...
This man: *You all leave, he's gonna live with me*
*He not only care his owned animals but also treat them as their mothers*
Such a great personality ❤️
Listen, I’ve only really seen a few people raising this issue and I want to add to the concern and conversation. I love this guy, I think he does great work. He is kind and compassionate and is teaching his children to be the same. HOWEVER when you get into breeding things get touchy.
When humans are directly interfering with breeding pairings, we have the responsibility to use the knowledge we have gathered to set every pairing up for success. Breeding should be done for a reason and should be done with the animals best interest in mind. So, let me ask you this: is it in these horses best interest (and minis as a breed themselves) for them to produce offspring?
The answer, if you look critically at the situation is no, of course not. These two horses, although they may have nice temperaments, although they have pretty eyes and colourings, although it’s a happy story and the man who owns them is good and kind, should NOT be allowed to reproduce. Let alone with each other.
These are rescue horses for one. They were likely not bred for conformation, health and temperament, meaning that any foal they produce will not be set up for success in life.
*Good* breeders look to better the breed(or species). For example, a good rat breeder will look for individuals who are less prone to respiratory ailments. A good German shepherd breeder will pair dogs with good hips. A good Paint horse breeder won’t breed two frame overos together. These are just a few examples. You need to know the animals past, any issues they have conformation, temperament and health wise and make your judgments from there. We don’t know these horses parents, what problems they may have had.
The bottom line is that it is irresponsible to allow these two to breed, and to promote this kind of breeding to a platform of impressionable viewers. The colt/stallion (have we even been told how old they both are?) should be gelded, the two of them should be allowed to live a happy life together. They do not need to reproduce to do this.
@C Sam Money. Animals with issues = more vet bills.
@@ericaallisonc Yep. Pugs and Co. are a vets best paying customers.
Wonderfully and clearly put!
C Sam I’m just going to say this as someone who worked in veterinary medicine: it’s not about the money we made minimum wage with extremely hard work, we love our patients, and we care to educate. The vet is right could the mare have a foal she answered that. We probably missed any consultation where the vet did a PE went over the history of the animal etc. for all we know the vet could have brought up the option to geld but there are people who don’t want to do that. It is not the vets job to judge a client no matter how much they might not agree with it. You don’t know how the people in the field feel about these animals and we can only educate so much in the end it’s the client that makes the decision as to what they want. Yes there are bad clinics but if this guy trusts this vet there is a reason just don’t judge a profession based on limited knowledge :/
@@JustNatax3 Some pugs are worse than others. My step mother adores pugs, but the only one that's ever had tons of health issues was a severely overweight rescue with bulging eyes. The pugs she purchases are in good health and form, and come from good breeders. They don't have any more health problems than other regular dogs. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying breeding pugs (or any highly deformed animal for that matter) is ethical. I am only saying that there is such a thing as good pugs and bad pugs, just like with all other dog breeds.
This is beautiful. Thank you for loving them and sharing them with us
Let us know what happened to Iris and Nano after this video. I realize that all of these beautiful stories with animals that you tell us about, require a lot of work on your part. It`s a big commitment. You are gifted. I believe that it is your mission in life to care and love for all these furry and feathery friends. What a statement in our world ! We`re with you !!! Thanks for all your amazing work ! ❤
If you are wondering about where you are going to keep them and live I think you have answered your own question. If you want to add a third horse into the herd I think gelding nano and rescuing another would be the most responsible thing.
The fact that you have an almost immediate connection with each animal really shows that they know what kind of a person you are , a loving and caring person . Thank you for looking after them
Cum poti sa nu iubesti un ingeras asa de mic si scump ?????? Se vede ca acest om are un suflet bun si frumos si iubeste foarte mult animalele si conditiile pe care le a creat pentru ele Cum sa nu le ingrijesti cind au atitea de oferit pentru noi Mii de multumiri pentru tot ceea ce faci pentru acesti caluti minunati 🤎💛💖❤
You're truly amazing ❣️ thank you for everything you do for these beautiful horses and thank you for being you 💝😊
