Truly is a miracle Kieth is still with us. So glad he went to get checked out! Bless you guys for all you do.
He was not going to die though 12:46
Julia: you could very well die from blood clots especially in the lungs! They could break off and travel into the heart and then you could die. It is a miracle that Keith is doing as well as he is considering the amount of clotting he had going on! Praise God!
@@juliamclane8319 blood clots can be deadly.
@@juliamclane8319 how do you know that? The blood clots can dislodge and travel to his heart causing a heart attack or go to his brain and cause an annerisom which is also life threatening.
@@francineherron1940 The blood clots travelled through the heart to get to the lungs and once in the lungs they cannot return. Blood clots do not cause aneurysms - please do not share incorrect information because these conditions are scary enough without misinformation. FYI I have suffered Pulmonary Embolism twice so I do know the possibilities
Keith, please rest and take care of yourself. We love you, you're a gem!!
I love having Elijah as the farrier for the horses. He's so good and understanding of them being stressed and or abused.
And he does a really good job of explaining what he's doing in a way that anyone can understand. I love that.
@@sallywaites8517 Agreed because most people would not be aware of all things needing to be done when first owning a horse and calling a farrier.
Back in the day, farrier care was not like it is today! I am glad it is and I really like Elijah! He sure knows what he is doing and works well with Dr. Nancy!
As someone who has worked with a lot of wild horses and donkies, the way that lady was approaching the mule was completely wrong. She didn’t give him his space to approach her and think about the situation, instead she crowded him and put him into the position to kick or bite. The way Kory worked with him afterwards was a breath of fresh air. Good on you for stopping that before it got out of hand
Agreed! Kory is an expert with horse/mule training! Don't know if she was but that could have gone really south in a flash!
Not to mention if something would have happened, the mule would have had a label on him.
glad Kory did corrective training right away
@@meycoe It's vital that a horse ends on a good note, even if it's with another trainer. A bad note can set you back months to years.
And as someone else noted, the lady was trying to take a shortcut to connection by pushing carrots on him. He took the first one she offered and spit it out, then she's shoving more at his face while chasing him around the pen. Her timing was rushed and pushy; she crowded him and put him and herself in an extremely unsafe situation. Kimberly handled that situation really well, she is a consummate professional.
You handled that situation with Chilli so well. Kimberly was quick to cut the appointment when it got dangerous and Korrey did a great job explaining why she was rejected and how he dealt with Chilli. I'm very impressed at how professional that was.
Take care Keith ! Hope you feel better soon !
I agree. Kudos to Kimberly for stepping in so strongly and insisting that the potential adopter come out with her. VERY well done. 👏
Poor Chili looked so uncomfortable when that woman was really pushing to try and get in his space. Can't believe she had the nerve to ignore Kimberly!
I really enjoyed watching Kory show us the the correct way to work with an Mule that hasn't had too much in the way of handling!
Thank you Kory for doing this follow up as to why that lady was not allowed to adopt the mule. She was pushing him to hard to let her touch him and she did not listen when Kimberly told her to step away. You have to understand that the staff know the animals better than you since they are around them on a daily basis and not just a few minutes like it is when going to adopt. If they tell you to back off, do it immediately! There is a reason that you may not be aware of.
👍👍👍👍👍
CORRECT 👍🏼 Kory is such a jewel!
Tbh I didn’t see a lot of warning signs that would reflect an immanent risk, but she was a bit creepy and rude.
Perhaps you edited out the most conclusive proof of the premise though I don’t think you probably should have, since that’s the position you based your responses on. 🧐😠
She’s using the treats to try and quickly establish a good looking rapport with this very green unhandled critter, and then adding a level of pressure once inside the pen.
These I see, especially in context of your overall messaging around this segment, as the more substantive concerns, but they are not as easy to describe or rely on. And she probably knows that.
She’s not necessarily deluded or not entirely wrong when she says she isn’t in any danger near the end of the segment, the mule is uncomfortable with her pressure or her vibes but mainly seeking to avoid her, so you do want to limit his exposure to that and good for you Kimberly to shut her down.
But, and she probably had to sign a waiver before being taken to any horse handling zones.
So atwhat point who gets to assess an equine adoption candidate -and how -is pretty much a grey area. Yes, if she gets kicked, bitten or farted on it would be a hassle at least to deal with, , not to m notion a black mark on this mule’s hr file, but usually you aren’t showing us folks at home segments with green broke horses where people go barging in on a horse that isn’t even haltered, and has a horses sense that “this person is intruding on my assigned containment area.
So there’s more going on here then meets the eye.
I’m just wondering why you are pull even advance an application to this stage without having checked out her bona fides a bit more. Since I hear you have a relatively high bar to qualify as an adopter.
But the main thing is you didn’t let her control the outcome and she did not get that mule off the lot and under her control.
From not-mardon in🇨🇦 spring day 4
@@Laurencemardon You weren’t expected to write a book!
Horse Plus has their own policy for adopting out animals, and have been very successful in honoring it. Occasionally
“ a Know it all “ shows up, and has to be dealt within the guidelines of that policy. Enjoy your day.
@@hummingbird275 Yeah, nonsense. The woman was applying a little pressure to try to assess the mule. Just like she explained to Kimberly. If Horse Plus doesn't like that, or the way the interaction is going, that's fine. But spare us the insults to her and the condescending lecture. Both of them are unnecessary, and a step too far. As was your comment about the length of the post yoiu're responding to. If you don't like reading a few lines, don't read 'em.
Keith we care about you. Please do what you must to get well.
And stay well.
GOD BLESS KIMBERLY, FOR KNOWING WHEN ENOUGH'S ENOUGH, AND RESCUING POOR CHILLI. ❤❤❤
(THERE ARE SOME LESSONS, A MULE JUST DOESN'T NEED.)
I'm pretty sure it was Chili who was about to teach the lesson. If she keeps ignoring equine behavior and acting like the Horse Whisperer, she'd going to learn it the hard way at some point.
@@CrimFerret BUT, THE HORSE ALWAYS PAYS A PRICE.
The way Kimberly handled the situation with the inappropriate person wanting to check out Chili was really professional.
Time stamp?
Agreed!
@@SwimDeeep 26:34 Kimberly wasn't comfortable from the start, showing that mule for adoption to really anyone but maybe a full trainer that only considers the future, after lots of ground work without cookies or carrots confusing the situation. K probably would have canceled that appt if she had a minute to really look at her paperwork after the farrier visit she witnessed. Or maybe it was the lady just not listening to Kimberly even before getting in the same space with the mule... that's tough too.
Was nice of Kory to explain to us and do another quick training session....they will get him handled it will just take time.. or a shelter transfer...that could happen. Angela is a great diffuser for sure, her own respect of staying behind a fence at all times really goes a long way for her interaction with a customer like this, when safety is a concern. Would like to see how Kory handles adoptions again, like to see him with both ppl and the horses. Busy training, I know.
This Lady wasn’t even listening to her and was asking the mule ‚what they got you in here‘🤷🏼♀️
@@PurdueAlum01 yep as soon as the lady said the donkey wasn’t “that wild” I knew it was off
Kory, thanks for the instruction on mule handling. You are an excellent teacher! Good episode, ya’ll!
So great to learn!
I've always wanted a horse but once I looked into what you and the horse needs I realized it is best for me to help by donating.
Please hug a few for me.
All the tractor needed was Keith’s magic touch. 👍🏼
I have no experience with horses (I just love them), but as soon as I saw the lady facing Chilli in the pen face on and going closer, I knew it wasn't the right thing to do.
That adopter drove me nuts, she didn’t show any interest or respect in what Kimberly was saying to her, and she gave that mule no release.
Kimberly- you rock! I love how you know the horses so well and love them even if they are brats! I think you need to take that donkey home! Rebekah and Angela, you are so completely dependable and honest! Elijah and Dr. Nancy are working together so beautifully.
31:08
Not your mule, not your property, not your liability. So glad you denied that lady the adoption.
Keith, sending you love and light! Take time to heal.
Yeah that woman had no idea what she was doing with the mule
Keith, as a retired acute care nurse, I hope you take it easy some and mind your doc! We care for you
I am at awe of how organized and involved all of the staff are in the care of these beautiful animals. When you have a turn over of staff that in of itself can be very stressful. You guys are rocking the Horse Plus Vision
Keith, please be careful. You dodged a lethal bullet!
I have clotting abmornalities and I know how scary that is. You are very lucky Keith, any one of those could have done you in. So happy this turned out well and you are back caring for the horses.
Yes VERY scary how many he had, too, so thankful he survived.
You take care, very sorry.🌹
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 for Kieth and the WHOLE Horse Plus Family!💕💕💕 WE Appreciate ALL You Do!💕💕💕🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐴🐴🐴
I know I've asked before and seen others ask. So happy Keith is doing well, but has Kimberly had cancer or does she always wear the caps like this one? Just asking since we are all concerned about health of all workers at horse plus.
@@barbarastaton7824 I believe she may have the condition called alopecia.
Glad you are on the mend Keith.👍🏼
Keith! Ohhh happy to see you so happy and happy they found those clots in time!
Take care of yourself Keith!
Anybody else just love the hay guy so much they cant stand it?
The lady looking at the mule made me so nervous 😬. Can you imagine having the audacity to walk up to an animal that has clearly just been described as "very wild" by someone who has regular contact with them and think you know better - you, a stranger off the street who's never even set eyes on that animal in real life before? All she could think to say was "Oh you're not that wild" I knew right then that she didn't have anywhere near the experience with horses/mules she may have thought she had. If she had any idea what she was doing she'd have realized that she had that mule on edge trying to corner it like that and was moments away from getting knocked into next week...then to top it off she had the audacity to say "I'm almost done" when being called away from him multiple times for her own safety. Ma'am, you're done when they say you're done,you're not in charge on someone else's property and with an animal that's not yours. Oh my.🤦🏽♀
Yeah, the way she was totally ignoring Kimberly when she was saying how unhandled he was and had to be sedated for the farrier. You could tell Kimberly was getting frustrated trying to get her message across multiple times. That lady was so condescending.
She must have thought she was the mule whisperer or something.
29:15 I was a little surprised Kimberly turned her back on that lady for even a second! She had walked over and made the woman disengage, I thought she would keep her in sights until back in the office even. I guess Kimberly released the pressure on her to get her corralled through the gate...not sure our good horse methods work on ppl...she was maybe needing some pressure all the way out the property gate.
Of course disrespecting the staff from the get go is no way to get the adoption to proceed. Probably had more of a chance of getting the mule if she said little to nothing and stayed behind the fence. Of course things work out for a reason...clearly not a good fit.
I'm so glad Kieth go to the Dr. in time, Thank God. When Kieth is not around, you should use Google for your problems and see how to fix them. Thanks for sharing and God bless you all. Don't let bad people get you down, Great job!!!
God bless you, Keith! Thank the Lord you went to the clinic! Praying for your continued health.
Keith, I so hope you get a quick recovery ❤
Keith, so GLAD you are doing better. Been missing you . Take care 👍🏼
Please, please make Keith take it easy. Blood clots are nothing to be messed with and can be deadly. My husband had them in his legs so bad he was sown for 2 weeks, could only get up for the necessities . Great work Horse Plus. Take care Keith.
I absolutely agree with Kory!!!
Amazing seeing Kimberly working with The horses/ donkey... Her relaxed and calm approach, 👍👏👏👏 she looks like she really found her shelf, in her work-life 🙂
love her personality 😊
I had a large blood clot in my left leg a few years ago...NOT FUN. They didn't do surgery but I was in hospital for a few then had to endure shots in my belly twice a day for a week or so. VERY painful shots that left my tummy all black and blue. I'm glad your doing so well Keith.
And we are sorry you had to experience all that you did to get rid of the blood clots that you had.
I had no idea it was so detailed.
I hope they know why this happened to you and to Keith.
Glad you're ok Kieth! Someone was definitely watching over you.
Great job Kimberly!! That lady clearly didn’t know what she was doing. I totally agree with you guys. Safety First!!! ♥️🐴😁
Kudos to you for not letting just anyone adopt! Wild mules, like wild mustangs need an expert who knows how to deal with them. She may have been around a lot of mules, but this guy could have really hurt her!
Any rider above a stark beginner knows if a horse/donkey/mule has his hind end towards you, it’s not time to approach them or try to put pressure on a horse.
Hell, most people who don’t know don’t go towards the end that kicks.
Glad your doing good Keith!!! 😊
Keith...I experienced 2 episodes similar to yours...I hope you KNOW, your walking around with that many clots throughout your body, is Truly a DIVINE Miracle...GOD still has plans for You here on earth and what a Blessing You are to SO Many...
This was such a great episode. Kodu's to the tech team first as they just keep getting better and better. Keith is a walking miracle in my mind plus he fixes things ! Angela is so level headed and patient, love her. Kimberly is so close to the animals, hard to find someone so talented. Kory as usual was right on the spot to show us what went wrong with that potential adoption and how to work with an untamed mule. So happy to see the puppies transferred out, they will have much better chance at place where people normally come for pups. I could go on and on and on. LOL
The woman with Chili was putting too much pressure on him and not releasing when she she should have. She was pursuing him too much and pressuring him.
Thank you Keith for listening to your body and going for medical help so many people don't hear the warning. great episode
When the Lady was trying to go up to the mule and ignored Kimberly by saying “you ain’t that wild,” my heart started going into fear mode I can tell that wasn’t right. Even though I never worked much with horses aside from going to a barn for a couple of years for lessons on lesson horses. (So I only know general horse manners and what I have learned from your channel.) but I could tell right away that was a no-no.
I have more experience with cats and dogs, is someone says a cat is extremely wild/feral. You treat that cat with the respect as if it were a fully mobile table saw that can target lock onto you that will hurt you without a second thought. So if someone says an equine is extremely wild, that is more like a tractor combine that is ready to attack that can and will hurt you or even kill you if its displeased with your presences or actions.
That mule situation was familiar, someone who has worked with broken horses/mules thinks they are ready to handle an unbroken one without any training in training an unbroken animal. I have worked with untrained horses supervised by a trainer....but still wouldn't buy an unbroken horse and train it on my own with such an backstory like this mule. Thanks Kory for showing the differences side by side. To train an animal you have to give them space to figure it out and not pressure them when they don't do it right from the start.
I think we should give Angela a break. Her husband has gone from excruciating pain to near death in the last month. She made a mistake on the order. We all make mistakes, particularly when someone we love has been or is in danger. I know Jason and Tawnee were 'smiling' but I also felt like you were both pretty annoyed and making it clear to Angela that you were annoyed. She does not deserve that, especially not right now when she needs our support.And Keith, thank God you are ok. Horse Plus needs you so much. I think of you as the glue, or pin, or hydraulic fluid that keeps the rescue working.
ditto, give her a break!
CHILI IS A SMALLER VERSION OF MY RESCUE JACK RUSSELL. ALTHOUGH, FAXXON CANNOT KICK ME, HE DELIVERED SOME VERY NASTY BITES AT FIRST. WE WORKED TOGETHER, NOW HE NO LONGER BITES! FAXXON IS LEARNING ABOUT "GENTLE" AND "EASY" TWO VERY, VERY IMPORTANT FOR ANY ANIMAL TO UNDERSTAND AND BE COMFORTABLE WITH.
What a nice team! Y’all seem to have a great dynamic supporting each other. Things seem so much calmer than the previous unhappiness with the vet techs on board.
I was wondering what happened with the vet techs...Why did they leave?
The other vet's was temporary until a full-time one could be found.
12:54 I didn't know that in Tennessee even the horses wear eyeliner 🤩🤩🤩
Such a beautiful horse!!
Hi, HPHS. Just wanted to say that I had to come back and watch this episode again. I’ve done that with intake/assessments episodes and a few others but this one was for different and I thought I’d share that with you especially since you do get questions about some of your staff changes. Whether it’s the arrival of Spring, Keith’s quick recovery or some unseen force, the competence, joy and community is palpable. Kimberly has a gift in communicating with both the horses and the audience, Kory is so patient in going over the training details and everyone seems to be doing so much, so happily. Dr Nancy, the farrier, Angela, John, Rebekah and the whole crew seem so at ease and approachable while being Uber productive. Thanks, Tawnee and Jason, for sharing your passion snd your amazing daily operations. Great to see your smiles.
Keith please pace yourself so you recover fully. It can be a long road of feeling better and overdoing it before you learn your new normal. Hugs to Angela because this can be even more scary for those who care about us.
Wishing you better Keith, thank goodness you went to the doctors. Do everything the Dr advises you to do. We care about you. 💕💕💕💕
"Yes I'm gonna corner a mule that could easily knock my block off. I'm so good at mules!" Goober. I'm glad Kory stepped in and showed the mule a correct approach and gave him release to re-wire that goofy lady's approach.
Great episode. HPHS is the best, with the best people who work there. What a blessing to know that Keith is doing well.
I'm old enough to remember buying hay for $1/bale and now $8-$12 isn't unusual and we don't have a hay shortage. You can get all the straight alfalfa you want at $5/bale usually, but for the last several years we're only getting 1 cutting of grass or grass mix hay.
Oh wow, Keith, you were in serious, life threatening, trouble there. Good to see you up and running again. Stay out of trouble, ok?
Love the new intro...all the videos are spot on and fun to watch, but very scary with Keith, he's a survivor...thanks for this, you guys are rockin' the horse world...!
OMG KEITH!!! VERY HAPPY TO SEE YOU ARE OK!!!
Kory "dances" with the mule to gain trust, that other woman's behavior was very cringy. Lady, have a seat, watch and learn from Kory.
Thank you for looking after all the horses 🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴
Omg I’m glad Keith is ok
My goodness Keith what were you doing going back to work two days later??.. you gotta look after yourself.. poor Jason..as for that silly woman crowding Chilli into a corner..I'm no horsewomen but even i know thats a bloody stupid thing to do..especially after Kimberley told her how much sedative he had to have just so Elijah could do some work on his feet..keep the vids coming..love it when I get notifications..🇬🇧💞🙏✝️🐎🐎👍😃🐾🐾🐕🇺🇸
Kimberley is so calm as she is being bitten awesome x Elijah is very impressive and a natural in front of the camera x Kory was very diplomatic in his explanation of training difficult mules x Keith you really do need to rest and take better care of yourself blood clots are serious and need to be treated seriously x another great episode
I'm glad you're feeling better Keith. Don't overdo ☺️
Keith, praying for you! You are one tough dude!
I think Kimberley should adopt that gorgeous donkey
Wow, I knew something happened to Keith from another video I watched, but I didn't know what it was, I just knew it sounded serious. My gosh you are one lucky man!!!!! There must have been an Angel looking out for you. So glad the outcome was good.
Cute donkey gorgeous Appaloosa. And I am so glad that God blessed Keith and thank God he went to the doctor.
Prayers for complete healing on Keith and what you guys do with these horses is absolutely amazing. God has a place in heaven for you💕💕
Hello, kory! You made the right
Decision!
The Woman Said ,she was Not in danger.
But she don't really really know this mule.its the
First contact.its okay, to bei carefully!!!
All the best for you and youre Loveone!
🌺🍀🥰👍
Kory you are amazing ,
❤❤
The lady checking on the mule was very rude. She is also going to learn the hard way, with possibly a kick in the head, if she fails to listen to the warnings about her safety. I'm glad she was turned away because that's better than hearing later she was injured by the mule. As Rick Gore often points out , the mule will be blamed for the humans folly. I'm glad Kieth is back to his sunshine 🌞 self. What a tremendous blessing we didn't lose him. I'm so glad Dr Nancy won the drawing. I'd love to meet her. She is the best! 🐴🐎🦄💝💞❣
Actually she looked like she knew what she was doing. Yes she should have listened to Kimberly, but she was trying to assess a completely untrained animal, and if she was focused on the animal, she may not have heard everyhing Kimberly was saying. The potentially dangrous animal is right wher her focus should have been.
Danke!
Thank you for you practical lived love...
Keith looks great, glad you went when you did and hope for a speedy recovery
So enjoying watching Dr Nancy, Corey & Elijah. Learning alot about horses and their needs. Take it a bit easier Keith, blood clots are not to be brushed off lightly.
That’s the first time I’ve seen a Garfield Pony! 😅😂🤣Cowboy needs to step away from the pizza! 😅😂🤣
So. Can we talk about the mare cam? THE MARE CREW NEEDS OUR FIX!!! 💙🥰
We know y'all have been slammed. But we miss our girls so much when the iPhone dies.
Oh, and by the way, was anyone able to figure out what spooked the mares the night of the auction? Something was moving around in the dark that scared them. My guess was some minis got loose in the lane, because I heard mini whinnies and squeals. But then the iPhone died. 🐎
I was glad to see the mentions of difficulties from last year's drought causing this year's hay shortages. I hope new shipments of clean chopped timothy for the girls will mollify the people who are upset that they're on pelleted alfalfa instead of fescue-infested hay or pasture. I've started copy/pasting the explanation about fescue endophytes, I've explained it so often. I can't link the U of Kentucky's page about it in Live chat on the stream.
Thank God Keith is ok. I have two friends who are also dealing with blood clots, loss of taste/smell & brain fog, etc, from long covid. It's such a horrible virus and we're still finding out the after-effects of having it. I'm glad Keith is taking it easy when he needs to but I bet it's really frustrating. Get well Keith! That's the most important thing. ❤🩹
Poor Jason, back and forth. Man, that lady who overestimated her ability with mules. Yikes! So glad Kimberly stopped it. I'm sure she's upset, but Horse Plus has to be responsible. She was pressing Chilli too much, and unaware of the danger.
So glad Kieth survived that. That is an amazingly sweet donkey. Like maybe the most friendly I've seen on this channel. As for Chili, that lady was clueless about reading equine behavior. I only know what I've learned watching this and a few other channels, and even I could tell Chili was not at all happy with what she was doing just by his ears and behavior. She's lucky she didn't get kicked. I don't know if she was under the impression they can't kick forward or what, but much more of what she was doing and she might have found out otherwise. By contrast,when Kory was in with him. Chili was curious and did approach several times by choice ears forward.
Yep, they can strike out with the front just as fast as the back end!
Donkeys and mules can kick lightning fast with deadly accuracy. That woman's overconfidence combined with lack of knowledge could get her into real danger, I hope she found the correction humbling and instructive and never attempts such foolishness ever again. She needs much more training and experience, I pray she doesn't attempt such a thing again with someone less experienced and lacking good boundaries. That could be disastrous.
You guys are doing a great job Nanette
You've all grown on me so much your devotion is awesome ❤❤❤❤❤
Same hay issues here in mid-central GA near Columbus. I have horses and also work at the local feed/hardware store. Our hay supplier is doing the same thing.....taking his big bales and making small bales so we have them for our customers. I reserved my hay for the winter. Its going to be close until 1st cutting this season. Head up friends.
Keith, plz take it easy awhile. Love you and Angela!
I'm glad you're doing better, Keith. Thank God you found them before anything else happened. 🙏
Wow, Keith!! So glad your recovery was so speedy. Take care, and don't work too hard.
Keith, that’s kind of early to return to work take care of yourself.
That Appaloosa is Beautiful
Hello from Germany! 🥰
OMG, Keith. So glad you're okay! You are AMAZING!
Poor Keith that must have been frightening. So glad he’s ok .
Great!
Ahhh The joys of horses!! I have watched you guys for awhile now and the thing that always stands out to me is the dedication and affection you show all of the animals is amazing. I pray that guys will always continue to care and love these animals because without you we would all be lost. 💜🤩🤩👏👏🐴🐴🇦🇺🇦🇺
The "thing" is disconnected from the other "thing," with the hand gestures, makes more sense to me then the actual description would.
You are all so awesome 😊
Hello Keith, please take care of yourself. The blood clot experience you had is very serious.
We care about you,& want you to be around for A LONG TIME!!!🙏🏼
That woman was creapy!
Caratdarla. She certainly displayed poor judgment to the degree of stupidity. Just my humble opinion.
Wow Keith needs to take a vacation, rest and relaxation
Bless your heart Keith. Thank you Lord for your healing hand on this man. I love that donkey. We had one her name was Sarah and she was the best watch donkey ever. It's everything, has gone up and the domino effect
Yes another fan from Germany here! :-) I am so glad Keith is doing ok so far! This could have gone very differently. It´s so good to see him walking around! The situation with Chilli´s adoption shows exactly that you are a very experienced and safe rescue! This could have ended really badly if Chilli would have gotten adopted. Kory really looked like dancing with Chilli. And that´s something you have to definitely have a higher level of experience and education with horsemanship. The hay shortage is something really challenging for sure! I am glad you get hay delivered.
Way to go Keith and I hope that you get better soon
