    Raising horses and ponies as a child I've always been amazed by ferriers (we called them blacksmiths). This gentleman really took into account the leg and tendon issues and trimmed accordingly. NOT EASY! Hats off to him and all others in this pony's recovery!

    My daughter found a white pony standing in the middle of the road with feet in the same shape she walked her to where we lived ...Called the sheriff and she now lives with us ..with all her medical problems she is being treated well here 🤗🥰🥰🥰💖💖💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏🙏it took her almost two weeks for her to walk properly again ..arthritic hips and shoulders, plus joints ,she had been foundered, nobody had claimed her ....

    Is it just me or did anyone one else find it satisfying when he trimmed the frog

    I am so glad Princess Anne was so touched by the pony's sad story that she decided to pay it a royal visit. That shows just how caring and an animal lover she is.

    Guessing poor little Haggis being so obese was because he was in so much pain from his overgrown hooves, he couldn't move around that much! So glad he was rescued!

    wow, Princess Anne was listening to his story! Glad to see that his only issue holding him back was his foot/hoof problem, once that was cleared up, of COURSE he could run and exercise all the excess weight. What a good Pony!

    I have a reoccurring NIGHTMARE of only being able to walk on my knees - I don't *love* horses like some of my friends do/have - I'm a cat person, (dog person second) - this makes me *weep* - *thank you* to anyone who rescues theses lovely horses and gives them the dignity they deserve

  • @Sliverbane
    @Sliverbane 11 лет назад +5

    Wild horses natural environment is often rugged terrain and I believe their constant movement looking for food wears down their hoof naturally just a head of natural growth. That's my understanding of it.

    He looks so much better now! I have never seen hooves that badly overgrown, that must have been so painful for the poor lil guy! He is such a little cutie, I just want to hug him. I hate that there are people out there neglecting their animals. Thank God for all the amazing, hard working people combating the neglect and saving these wonderful, innocent lives. God bless all of them!

    Haggis was a chunk for sure but with those painful feet I'm sure he didn't walk much. He is such a fine boy and I'm glad he has a loving home.

  • @noshoesonmyhorse
    @noshoesonmyhorse 8 лет назад +4

    Hello Haggis. We have a Haggis too - from the SSPCA in the spring time, a bit neglected before SSPCA got him. It's very rewarding working with these horses who have had a bad start, seeing them becoming more confident and their little personalities developing. My Haggis will be 2 in the spring time and he's destined for life as a driving pony if he is suited to it, which every indication seems to be that he is. :)

  • @Felatelist
    @Felatelist 11 лет назад +14

    So heartwarming! Great honor to meet up with HRH Princess Anne, who does seem to like all horses and not just the top breeds. Delighted Haggis has found a loving owner and great surroundings! Thanks for sharing.

    It is so frustrating to think that people can be so cruel and careless to allow something like this to happen. This video of them helping Haggis really did put a smile on my face; it proves that *some* people have a heart and love animals.

  • @xxarochonxx
    @xxarochonxx 7 лет назад +26

    After being neglected for so long I would've expected him to pull; I'm surprised @ how easy he is to handle, & how nicely he stands for trimming. What a sweet little pony!

    • @happyhammys351
      @happyhammys351 9 лет назад +41
