    Hey guys! We will explain exactly what EPM is in our next “Oliver Video” until then you can go check out this video of our stallion, Bob. Who, unfortunately contracted EPM from a local feed store (that got shut down for contaminated livestock feed) ruclips.net/video/x9PB5xAQZKI/видео.html

      Yes, I watched Bob and his EPM story. JR was correct about all the vermin around that feed, where you picked Oliver up from. Didn’t Bob catch it from possum’s ❓🤔💜 Good to see Oliver is on the right road to recovery. I was shocked about his red cell being down & close to needing a blood transfusion 😪🐨🐨🦘

      It's not quite so common a condition in Canada...no possums most places! But it's definitely a concern for horses shipping for breeding and showing and ending up here. Lucky they've been studying EPM and have treatments for it. Marquis(?) is available now for use in this country thank goodness! Again, good luck for the best result with little Oliver! Feed that boy!

      Good, I just looked it up and was thinking that he could have picked this up from the unhealthy envrioment he was living in? This makes me sad for all of the other horses that were on the farm with Oliver. I don't know anything about EPM though. God Bless you good folks for helping this georgous baby and to all who have contributed to his care. I hope he can make a full recovery. He seems like such a loving boy. Just a shame how some people treat animals.

I don’t think he would have lasted another day. If you had not gone & picked him up when you did. God is on our side. It really got to me when the Vet stated Oliver had been starved 😢😢JR & The Rosa Family Thank you . 🙏🙏💜💜🐨🐨🐨🦘🦘🦘

      Same here..when JR asked if the epm was the cause of his anaemia and the vet said no..pure starvation..I just broke into little pieces..and he is in pain and feeling so darn crappy but ge is still such a gentle fellow..when let off in the field he just kept walking to JR..he knows he saved his life..they have that bond already ..from day 1..I hope and pray they've caught this disease early enough to get him better..think of the possibilities of JR together with Oliver..he adores his human saviour.. he trusts him so much..poor bugger must feel so bad but his temperament is still 100% cool dude ..🇬🇧🐑✝️🙏🐎👍👏👏🇺🇸

  • @karenduncan6004
    @karenduncan6004 Год назад +7

    As bad as his condition is, it's a wonder Oliver didn't have an infection of any kind (not counting the EPM and parasite load, of course). What a relief that he doesn't seem to have any organ damage!
    That poor baby has suffered so much in his short life, all from sheer neglect. His former owner should not be allowed to have any animals at all.
    Oliver is such a sweet horse, and clearly he loves and trusts you folks already. He doesn't seem to have a mean bone in his body. When he feels better (God willing!), his personality is just going to bloom.
    Again I am so thankful that you good folks have him now. You are exactly who he needs! After your experience with Bob, you even know how to deal with his EPM.
    God bless you!

  • @mommapancakess

    You literally saved Olivers life. He was watching that other horse die in his pen in Texas. I really think he knows how lucky he is to be there with you all at HH! He never has to know what starvation and neglect feels like again. Thank you all so much for keeping us posted. As soon as I saw this update, I nearly dropped my laptop trying so fast to play it! Bless you and yours...

    Poor boy. His previous owner should be fined and banned from owning any living thing. If you hadn’t bought him he’d probably be dead in a couple of weeks. It makes me so angry that she has all these other horses that are no doubt currently suffering. At least Oliver will now get the care and attention every animal deserves.

    Veterinarians are heros in my eyes. They have higher than average suicide rates and I can understand why. Be kind to your vet and appreciate that they give so much and often get asked for FREE or reduced rate services. They often do volunteer spay and neuter in addition to being busy busy busy. They see alot of death and sad humans. We have a shortage of veterinarians in California and I can understand why. It is often a thankless job, although not in Olivers case!! Thank Goodness! Get well Oliver xo

    That baby was neglected and abused. I think all of us would love to see the original owner brought up on charges, because his condition could easily have been mitigated if she’d bothered to give him the kind of care and treatment he needed, before things got this bad.
    Thank you, JR and the rest of your family, for helping Oliver, and for giving him a new chance at life. I cannot wait to see him improve over the coming weeks and months, and regain the health he was cheated out of so early in his life.

    Had y'all NOT gone back to rescue Oliver from the death trap stockade my gut tells me the obvious trajectory of death was upon him. No wonder he is so submissive. Prayers for a full recovery. God bless your family as Neurology issues are not for the light at heart. It can be grueling work for the afflicted to overcome. Here is a prayer for complete recovery and Oliver is in the 30 percentile. Busy days so far so please relax for awhile. And let the meds do its work. We should be furious that the owner refused your bid for him. Sounds like if they did not get what they want the decision to let a horse die, instead, is pride filled greed and could be charged as neglect.

You can already see that his look is more alive and his trust in people, after all he had to experience, is incredible.

    EPM is bad news, but some horses can, with the right medication and vet care, do very well. Skydog Sanctuary in Oregon,has a very sweet gray mare named Dakoda, who came to them with painful urine scald caused by EPM neurological issues. She was treated with the appropriate meds, and became able to urinate normally. She is a sweet, calm, and gentle horse who helps a blind horse who is in with her. They are great friends. Two other great horses, Lily and Rosa (Rosa is also blind) are in with them. Beautiful Lily had a severe autoimmune disease that almost killed her, but she looks terrific now and is doing well. Probably some of you horse lovers on this channel are already familiar with Skydog. If not, you might want to look them up. Anyway, I hope that Oliver does as well as Dakoda with the EPM treatments!!!!!!

    It hurts to see animals being mistreated in any way. I'm thankful that you have him now. In spite of the test results, I can see an improvement in him already. He's not standing there with his head hung and not moving. His ears are up and he's looking around. Clearly, his appetite has improved and I love how he tries to follow you. I guarantee his spirit is healing. Blessings to you and your family.

    I wish we could save all the horses from that ugly place, I wish they were all there with you and the vet - in experienced and caring hands. Look at Oliver's eyes following you and the glancing over at the camera person and looking at the young lady who was petting his nose - he has the most gentle look - I'm just horrified that he was ever with people that weren't you and how he might have been treated previously.

    Watching all your Oliver videos now...can't get over how interested Oliver is in everything going on: his eyes look right at ya! He already showed affection, like he's realized finally he is in a "herd" that loves and will protect him! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you! I'm old, retired and living on a small fixed income, but as i can I promise to send what $ I can toward Oliver's care...I live with 4 Alaskan Malamutes and we all sit around the big screen watching Oliver videos... ... ...

    I have been waiting all day for this to drop. I am NOT a horse person but I somehow came across the first video of Oliver and was amazed at the compassion you showed for the saddest horse in the lot. You don't need to be a horse person to feel for this big guy. While the news was not great....it could have been a lot worse so we are happy about that. Please keep us up to date on Oliver and how he is doing.

    Lovely Oliver I really hope he can recover completely, he's such a good horse. The people who sold him to you really need to have that hellhole where they starved and neglected him shut down and the owners to be severely punished, also the auction company need to be notified of these people and the conditions their animals are living and dieing in.

Oliver is a fighter...and hes in the very best place for him ....thank Goodness otherwise he would never have survived this long! A good year from now...he will be as solid as a rock and we all wont recognise him!........Bless him x

    What a shame poor Oliver was treated so poorly before. Is this just the way the horse trade is? That breeder/seller in Texas should be shut down for neglecting animals like this. If I remember right, while watching your other video where you picked him up, another horse was dead and one other down. Outrageous! Glad he is safe now with you, but this is disturbing.

    What are the chances that the former owner already knew that Oliver had EPM before the sale? 😡And why would anyone starve this precious baby?

    Because of you, Oliver has an excellent chance of becoming 100% healthy and overcoming the EPM & anemia. 🙋🏼‍♀️💕

    Embarrassingly I had to look up EPM in horses but I'm grateful it doesn't sound fatal... I've been so scared Oliver had something beyond help. While his health isn't great right now, it's expected under the conditions he was in. Thank God that is now in his past and he can only get better from now on ❤️❤️❤️

    • @barbaravecchio5600
      @barbaravecchio5600 Год назад

      You are wrong about the EPM not being fatal. It can effect their ability to eat. Does that not sound fatal to you?

    I have a feeling that Oliver is going to be fine. A total recovery wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. Mainly because you got it diagnosed early enough to take the necessary measures to combat it. He's fortunate to have found you and your dear family. I know extra-curricular vet visits are a painful hit to the bank account, but it sure beats not knowing if anything is wrong, and not treating what is known to be wrong. I wish I had the means to support you financially, but I'm already almost frantic wondering, "what do I have that I can sell for a decent price" to pay my own vet. Three of mine need his attention, and only one of them is just a routine checkup. I feel a headache coming on... Give Oliver a hug from me, and may the Lord bless you and your family bountifully.
