That is so unnatural for a horse to walk like that, just horrible. I hope this will be banned.

Who could treat them like that evil

How disgusting to treat them like that

They're ALL so skinny! Why would anyone starve a horse?!

Just sad 😢😢 I hope at the least someone loves on them for their sacrifice

You guys rock 🐎

It might help some of us uneducated people to understand more about the big lick, if you actually showed the stacks and chains. We can quite clearly see in the video the abuse that these horses are forced into. Although it is hard for us to understand the procedure itself. Thank you for all you do in your rescue efforts

Wow this guy is delusional big lick horses r so abused and I show horses and I barrel race horse and rodeo horses r not abused like what they do to big lick horses frb 1st needs to come soon can they appeal the law or did they try that

Why must these beautiful creatures have to suffer? Protect them always!

Big lick is abuse!

Would bloodroot help those warts (Glimmer)?

The people that ride these horses can’t ride, even their circus music is hideous

❤ to the lady (cheryl) who adopted Peanut . I'm in same lonely boat as you. Enjoy Peanut!

Only 1/4 of the way through, Jason, I'm done..I cannot bear to watch ..I'm ready to throw up..sorry, I know how hard you all work

I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT THE BIG LUCK WILL BE ABOLISHED.. THIS IS BIG MONEY WITH A LOT OF LOBBYISTS IN THEIR POCKETS..THIS IS OLD MONEY.. I'LL BELIEVE IT WHEN I SEE IT

😢😡

Already done! Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

The cheering crowd remind me of performing Chimps ..what a bunch of losers !!

That just wants to make me cry that poor grey's back legs, all of it is shockingly disguisting an ashamed that im called a human. 😢

Just horrible to watch :( i feel like knocking the fat gits off of the poor horses ..pure Evil !!

Watching Jason doing construction, fixing the website, filming, going to Washington, and all the other things he does for Horse Plus... I wonder if that person in the chat during a live intake a few weeks ago, who kept criticizing Jason, is watching and seeing all he does? She was obviously new to Horse Plus. She was asking who he was, implying that he didn't have any business being there because he was kidding around with some of the staff while he was filming. I pointed out to her that he was one of the founders of the rescue and his job during intake is to film and narrate what's happening, and that everyone on the staff are close friends. But how do you, in a few sentences in chat, convey all the many hats Jason wears at Horse Plus? How can you POSSIBLY convey how utterly INVALUABLE, and IRREPLACEABLE Jason Preisner is to Horse Plus Humane Society? I hope that girl is watching. I hope she gets it now.

Who in their right mind said these beautiful creatures look great with the stupid awkward stride the riders should try walking around the ring with stacks on

They're struggling to move, poor babies! 😢 And that bloody circus music is ridiculous! Great job Jason with that guy with the camera in your face. I love how both of the guys back peddled and stumbled over their words when confronted with facts. Haha!

That "winning" horse literally limped on and off the grass patch. That back leg is already shot. 😢 These poor horses are babies. Even when this becomes illegal, they'll just find a way to show in a private area.

How insane. Utterly grotesque

Too too sad thankyou HPHS for all your exceptional effort towards putting an end to this cruel abusive practice.

My heart hurts for them 😢

I was just going to tell you to check out horse plus humane society they are amazing. I love Dr Lydia the veterinarian she's great and funny. Thank you for supporting them

Didnt you get a huge amount from Bob Barker? Wasnt this invested?

It’s all so ugly 🥲🥲

You should put the video online and let the viewers express their anger at her!!!

why don't they want the horses saved??? $ - money?

Absolutely disgusting

Why have you been doing overseas grants if you are experiencing financial difficulties? I dont have toilets that flush or medical insurance. I wash my clothes in the bathtub.

So glad it's being banned next year. They have a lovely natural gaite as they are. And the crowd is small.

What's up with the 1970s Horse protection act where violation is a criminal and civil crime! Soring is a crime!

Be careful standing on the open cement area. I know someone who was struck by lightning twice in that situation.

Would be nice to have a LARGE underground shelter for animals and people.

I don't understand what they're trying to gain by putting those forces through such brutality like why why why why why is the point like I don't get it it's obnoxious it's cruel it's heartbreaking and I really appreciate horse plus Humane Society send the work in to get some of this stuff out there to the public so people can see what these people are doing these poor animals

Oh my goodness Dino is the cutest! Hope everything goes well with all of your problems!

Dr. Chavez's technique felt really cold to me. I didn't see her administer, pain meds, antibiotics? Love on the Horses a Little.....didn't see that either! She may be the last person this Horse ever Sees before she Leaves this World🏇💔🥲 Dr. Lydia still tries to administer whatever she can, even flushing out old wounds, and X-rays even if it doesn't look good for the Horse. Feels like she goes that Xtra mile and Sometimes that can save a Horse! (I could be a little partial). I just Feel the Love and Pain in her eyes when she can't save them.its really Heartfelt, and I'm sure the Horses Feel it too! Dr. Lydia you mean So Much to the Horses and to me! 🙏🙏🏇😇♥️♥️

What is the hardest thing to understand is why would they spend all of the money & time, just to injur and make them lame?

I hope your lawyer starts suing for defamation and false reporting The complete witch hunt that this has become. It's harassment!!! If Horse Plus was doing it you can bet they would of filed charges!!! It's blatantly obvious what's going on. How is the good ole boy system still getting away with this in 2024? 🤔

Echt schrecklich die armen sich abstrampelnden Pferde zu sehen...wem nützt der Blödsinn? 😢

Ohhhh😭 ci jedzcie i właściciele powinni sami nosić takie buty 🤬 ja nie rozumiem tego jak możesz to zrobić stworzeniu co czuje🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬. Dla mnie to jest po prostu chore i oni powinni do psychologa ???????????????????????

Ugh gross. Here’s something that’s sad. The same kind of saddle that is used in this horrific crime is the kind of saddle used in Saddle Seat. Performance riders in saddle seat dress similar to these so called riders with the long coats and jods and hats. I think whoever created the big lick was trying to copy saddle seat because the first saddle seat five Gaited world grand champion was I think in 1902 which was way before the big lick became a thing and the horses used in saddle seat are breeds that naturally step high. Another sad thing is that people mix up saddle seat with the big lick and accuse saddle seat CZcamsrs of doing the big lick which I can see why cause same kind of saddle and the legs go high in both. It’s just that one is natural and the other is nothing but plain abuse.

Was that pattern called lacing? It's pretty rare too.

I was a groom for yrs. I was one of those folks riding in the semi. But not walking horses but other society breeds.

Actually, barrel racing is a horrible. The starfish kicking with spurs and the crazy running around in tight turns. It's mean. So the guy did have a point. Have you ever seen those videos of those poor half crazy quarter horses trying to throw riders before they go off to barrel race? Many horse sports are just awful. People need to change the way they look at horses, and the way they use them in sports.
