    Why the hell would someone mistreat such beautiful creatures

    We are a private farm here in Germany, I am a vet myself, and we are doing exactly the SAME HERE - saving horses, making them look like a "real, good and fed animal again" and - finally - placing them with new, formerly tested and certified owners. THIS vid reminds me of one case we had around Christmas 2011....just in the next village, neighbours found a barn full of Shetland ponies, all so very, very thin and all of them with bacterial scours. The barn itself was horror, no hay, no straw -nothing but a floor full of scours to wade through. It was horrible...thank you for doing the same work in the UK, it is SO indispensable! I'd take one of your Highland-like Ponies myself, but it's sad this is not possible because they have to stay on the island. Anyway, keep on doing this great work - same as we do!

    when they showed us the horses after they were rescued, I didn't even notice it was them. they look completely different. I'm so happy that they survived and didn't just die alone.

    If the owner do not want the horses why not sell them to a good home before they can get this sick😠

    I watch these videos again and again because I get such a kick out of seeing what the horses look like after they have been cared for by World Horse Welfare. It makes me feel all warm inside to see the INCREDIBLE work these people do.
    The videos also inspire me to one day volunteer or work with rescue animals.
    Thank you for your heart-warming and inspirational videos and for the futures you give this wonderful animals

    just a story:
    so the other day I was driving past a paddock and you could see a giant herd of beautiful well fed ponies, they weren't clean but that was expected when they are turned out in the paddock they looked like the most happiest ponies. And then this guy comes out on a quad with big bales of hay to give to them he separates the bale for them and they all ate like a family there was no arguing or anything among them I noticed they would all rotate from bale to bale evenly. It was a fun sight!

    Wow, when fully recovered they were so beautiful! it's such a shame that some people can't keep horses responsibly.
    it's horrible that the little grey had to go but thank god the others made a full recovery!
    I'm hoping to get a horse within the next year & i really want to find out about investing in a rescue pony/horse so they can spend the rest of their life in a save & loving environment, getting all the care they deserve!
    KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

    Gosh , that's amazing.
    The way you bring them back up to normal or better than that is just super.
    I would love to be able to work with horses that way , making their lives better.
    GREAT WORK !

I love seeing the ends of these videos though because it shows me some of the greater things people are capable of doing for these animals :) There are the few that don't make it (may they rest in peace) but the ones who pull through always look ten times better in the end.

    What a complete change! Dark emaciated Horses to clean Full of life "Running Happy" to be a horse again. What a change Great Job! I Just found this website and founding that a lot of these comments are more than one, two, 5 years old! And to think that if a car went into a ditch, and farm with horses were nearby Those horse could pull him out with no problem and send him on his way. To think they are kept this way.
