  • Spur our beautiful pony that was once neglected gets a second chance as he goes to one of the best homes ever. Join us on the farm as we get work done on our new Solis Tractor that we love. It's honestly been life changing for the farm. Spur gets his hooves trimmed and loads up in the horse trailer to head to his new home. It's a tender goodbye but we couldn't be more happy about his new home!

    Thanks for the update on Spur. Sounds like he has finally found a good home with Ray and Emma; certainly hope so, anyway.

    It breaks my heart that Spur had to endure lack of attention and care once again...
    I am so thankful that the people at least reached out to you and that you took Spur back.
    I am especially happy that Spur will be in good care with Ray and his family..... his sweet soul deserves nothing less ❣️

    I watched your video about trimming Spur's hooves because it came up in my 'suggested' column and it said he was neglected. Had to find out how he was doing. It's wonderful to find good people exist out there and he will have a home. I hate to say this but sometimes people take on animals because they have a mental illness caused by the need for love and to love. It's heartbreaking they can't care for themselves, never mind animals. Of course I don't know what happened in Spur's case. Where I am, the ASPCA has a horse rescue facility right beside a prison. The trusted inmates who want to, get to volunteer to care for the neglected horses. I firmly believe it changes some for the better, because a friend of mine was there.. I see you are open about faith. I am an agnostic but love Christians, if that makes sense. Every morning I pray God will find me, and carry on the best I can. I have to care for the lost people in my life, I can't take on animals but it warms my heart you are there.

    She has rain rot Allen, iodine mediated shampoo works great for this. As the scabs soften I gentley remove the crusty scabs, when washing them. The hair will grow back. I have one mare that always gets this during the summer. My other horses in the same field never have this issue. Some are just more prone to this then others. 😊

    • @VeronicaMist
      @VeronicaMist Před 11 měsíci +1

      My mare gets rain rot almost every year too. I pick the scabs and sponge on Betadine. (sometimes Polysporin - she seems to get great relief from Polysporin for some reason)

  • @susansteen9252

    It sounds like Blue Mickey has rain rot. A good way to get rid of it is to give her a bath with an antibacterial soap and make sure she is completely rinsed. After she's dry, take coconut oil and massage it into the area. Coconut oil is an antibacterial. Put a light sheet on her to keep the dirt out of the sores until it heals. The bacteria is in the dirt she roled in.

    • @CherylAnderson-qs4iq
      @CherylAnderson-qs4iq Před dnem

      Sounds right. Whatever the cause, the treatment seems ideal & easy to accomplish.
      Considering the location on the back, it might've been blisters from being saddled with a dirty blanket, getting sweaty & irritation from abrasion. Maybe having the saddle left on with a sweat soaked blanket, and maybe from being ridden by a heavy rider and all of the above to deal with.
      Hope it healed up.

    • @susansteen9252
      @susansteen9252 Před dnem

      @CherylAnderson-qs4iq At the time, she was only a year old, so it wasn't from being ridden.

Cordell did an amazing job with a nice assist from you. Spur is truly lucky you found him. How I wish I was younger I’d be the first one in line to be able to adopt him. Happy I found your channel will be working my way through all your videos.

    Do you have those awful huge horseflies out there? I swear they are carnivorous ! They have a bite that easily can draw blood so maybe the bumps are horse fly bites. Having the whole fireplace that belonged to your grandparents is AWESOME not just for the sentimentality but it is gorgeous and really dresses up your entertaining area!

    I agree with a couple others, I think she might have rain rot ☹️ but if it is, its easily treatable, just give her a good bath with a medicated shampoo, but make sure you rinse it out good!! And get the flakey parts off. So happy your getting so much done with your new tractor 🚜. Go eat breakfast 🥞 Love and Blessings to my farm family on Route 66 ❤️🙌 Jennifer

    It was easy to see the the family who took him was not a fit, I'm glad to find the update, even though I'm very late to the game on his story. I hope it works out , I had hoped Spur would be a pampered pet and nothing more with maybe an older woman. He is old enough to just be awarded a gentle kind existence. Too many people equate a horse or pony's value by if you can ride them. The relationship with them and their happiness should matter most. Liberty work with horses is something I wish people would do more, especially to build a relationship. I'm sure they are a good family, don't know anything of them, sounds like they are - but the whole cowboy thing makes me cringe, always seems to be a dominance thing, ego involved - even with kids in that culture. Exceptions of course , I hope Spur is getting an exception for a change. All that aside - grateful to the person who bought him from the auction in the first place - saved his life , and to TFOR66 for giving him care and a safe place to start over from. Good on ya. Good luck Spur , what a great pony, deserves some peace and kindness.

    I have peacocks and peahens. He is a blue shoulder. Fred would like a mirror , to look at himself. Cover it with some wire to cut his view a bit other wise he will think it is another male and will want to fight with himself. To bad you weren't closer to Ontario Canada, I have about 20 peafowl and they quite enjoyable.
