Our 3 most recent horse auction rescues came with a very contagious disease - Strangles. Thankfully with our protocol no other horses on the farm got sick!
COMMON QUESTIONS:
+ both horses came in infected together and were quarantined before this video was filmed
+ the disease dies quickest in open air, containing the liquid and bringing it out of quarantine violates biosecurity protocol
+ solid surfaces were bleached and the field rested for over 2 months before horses were allowed back in

Shout out to the 'emotional support' horse too! He knew his buddy was getting help. 😊
I know he was lightly sedated, but you can just see how much relief that gave ol' Zeus!! I'm so thankful ya'll took care of that for him. God Bless You.
Yeah you can see it in the eyes before they were bit wide but after all that pus came out the eyes started to relax
We rescued a small, very neglected, emaciated, pony w/ hooves so long they curled all the way backwards. He came w/ strangles from an auction, his lesion was in a similar spot and under the jaw, too. He was quarantined well over a month. The vet didn’t expect him to survive, but he was a fighter and did! He is thriving and living his best life now, babysitting all the weaning foals every spring, on a multi million dollar horse farm in Brooksville, FL. Rest of the year, he is free to graze the entire place, not behind any fences. He greets every person who arrives patrols and drives off coyotes.
Greatest story ever ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Se debe sentir muy aluviado desoues del drenaje...por que, llegan esto, es descuido, falta de amor?Gracias y bendiciones a quuenes les ayudan ...
Nice❗️
That's Awesome!! ❤
Today is the second time I’ve watched a vet take care of infection like this. The first was an elephant. Thank you vets for what you do in taking care of these beautiful animals.♥️
Have the same route today
Same.. did we watch the same video lol
I also watched a bull tonight. They were afraid of a very gently animal, poking the abscess with a stick. They certainly did not remove all the infection.
The youtube algorithm seems working weird.
I love animals and I love your hair Patricia
You can see his eyes soften as the abscess drains. What a relief it must have been for him! This is what people don't see/ know about rescue. There's more to it than simply re-homing an animal. Thank goodness you got him out of that auction!
And he lowers his head to make it easier to access 🖤
😂😊😅❤
Me too
Exactly
@@lashg be😂ewws
What a sweet, patient baby. And bless your hearts for rescuing these horses.
Aw, I’m glad you guys petted him the whole time. And that he had a buddy with him.
You can tell it hurt him, when the pus was being pushed out. It needed to happen. Glad his horse friend was there for support
No it didn't. He was sedated, they said so in the video. It was uncomfortable but not hurting.
@@Bambuzzsprosse sedated doesn't necessarily mean numbed or on painkillers, it just means they gave him something to calm him down. If he was anaesthetized there would be no pain, though I can't remember if they did that here or not
What a good boy to stand so well for the procedure.
That horse must have felt so much better with the pressure relieved!👍
Absolutely
@@rhfarmstables I assume that you were able to get the sack out so that it does not fill up again.
@@georgepierson4920tm pretty sure that it was the lymph node that had enlarged and became infected from a virus. I have a cat with feline hiv who gets something similar with his lymph nodes and once the are drained they heal without to much trouble
Great job taking care of these animals. Thank goodness for rescues.
You could see the relief in his eyes when you popped it,What a beautiful horse God bless you lady's
Yes you could ... You must be able to read horses eyes. Didn't look any different to me.
I noticed that as well. Once the drainage had begun and sufficient pressure was being relieved, you could observe his eyes relaxing and widening. He wasn't as guarded. Yes, you could tell he felt so much better!
It was such a relief to see the horse get rid of all that puss then seeing him rolling around strangles free was glorious 😁🙏🥰
@Kerry glue
Ikr, horses rolling around in the dirt, beautiful sight.
@@carly8490p
Oh, my gosh! It's pus NOT puss!
@@bjohnson1149 Aw shut up! Who cares? Are you the resident grammar police?
I'm almost 63 years old and have wanted a horse my entire life. Never could afford it. He is gorgeous. Subscribed.
Welcome! Happy to provide horsey content 🙂
I hope you get your baby. Lots of unexpected things can happen
Consider volunteering at a horse rescue,. Two in AZ,. Giving temporary love 💖😘🐴
Same here at 69
Same for me
As someone who has had more than one abscess, I can’t think what pain this poor animal has been in.
The people running that auction were especially awful to let him suffer this way
Wow that was a tremendous amount of puss drained from that one spot! The pressure from it must have been tremendous as well. So glad there are caring souls like yourself who treat these unfortunate animals who cannot help themselves!
not just pressure but infection all throughout the area making it extra tender thus the pressure makes it even worse, abscess's are no joke
You can just see in his eyes how relieved he was after draining….wow!
Kelly here again OMG that is the worst case I have ever seen. Thanks for every thing again you do for these beautiful horses. You have a heart of gold.
Thank you! Zeus is doing so much better now 😁
Hello great job draining that abscess!
Beautiful animals.
Amazing to see how much trust Zeus has in the people helping him ... great job!
The relief must have been immense!
OMG! That poor baby! It must be feeling so much better to get that taken care of and cleaned out. What a gorgeous horse. ❤
He's extra pretty now that he's healthy!
@@rhfarmstables Oh I bet! He’s an absolute beauty for sure! ❤️
What a majestic boy, Zeus!
Thank you for bringing him around.
It was so wonderful to see him rolling and prancing off.
Zeus is a beautiful horse. I'm so happy to hear all the horses were cured of their infections. It was very cool to see him rolling in the dirt too ❤ Thank you for helping these gorgeous animals!!
Aww what a sweet sweet boy! I’m sure he felt such relief after that! And u guys we’re so sweet to him, giving him pets and lettin his friend be close to keep him calm. Thats so caring.
Realize: Pus is made up of white blood cells, usually dead, that have been fighting the infection. White blood cells are heroes! 😁😁
It's fun to watch the pus come out
Stupid question wouldn't be easier to put a tube in it?
The smell must be terrible.
@@oliewilliams8873 not really. The Zeus would probably feel it, not like it, try to brush it out. Besides, the stuff still has to come out and go somewhere. He definitely wouldn’t stand for a bag around holding it. Better to drain it all in one place, let it pool, then disinfect the area. It’s not like you can give him “cage rest” like you can with smaller animals, and it’s not easy to have them stand still. You can’t lie them down (death for horses). She knows what she’s doing.
@@oliewilliams8873 this way gets it done faster-over and done quick.
He's such good boy, considering he must have been in so much pain.😢
A Very good boy!
You ladies did a good job making that beautiful horse feel better I like the way you treated him like a living creature not an object 😊
What a beautiful and trusting boy! I’m so glad he’s with you receiving the love and care that all living things need! ❤
Thank you so much!
Wow, amazing. Even sedated he is still so calm. Amazing work caring for him.
Horses are such beautiful souls, the relief in his eyes....
Bless Zeus heart. After it started draining he seemed to relax some and let the vet work on him. I know it hurt and he had to feel so sick. So glad he healed quickly ❤ 🐴
Oof, that must have been an awful feeling, having that big painful abscess there! The way he tossed his head about, and then stopped the moment it started draining, I'm sure he felt a lot better getting all of that crud out. The puddle of pus on the ground was huge! Seeing him go from tense and stressed at the beginning to relaxed, droopy ears and droopy eyelids of relief was wonderful ❤️
INSTANT mood and behavior change when that pressure was relieved. You can see it in his eyes!!
Thank you for rescuing this beautiful horse and nursing it back to health blessings from Martinsville Indiana
Well done. That was nasty abscess. Much relief for the horse. God bless you. 😊
I'm sure that baby was in some rough pain. Thanks for helping him and all the other horses in your care!!!!!
40 years ago I worked at a big Thoroughbred farm in Ocala, in the farm’s hospital barn. You have not lived until half of your 80 stall barn has a two or three yr old with strangles in it. It’s a process, man! After the initial ‘surprise’ of a few ‘snotty’ horses, the realization hit that we might have a problem. For the next two months every morning feed run was accompanied by a temp check of all 500 horses. (Was handled by each sections’ hoard of grooms; thank goodness that wasn’t my job.) Anyone with an elevated temp got moved to one end of the barn. (Obvs not the gross end.) If their temp got higher they got moved to the gross end. If not after a few days of observation they were turned back out. This was in those pre vax days.
There was a shallow bath of bleach outside every stall that we had to step in when entering and leaving the stall. And soooo many gloves. We learned how to make nebulizers out of two liter soda bottles and ace wraps. Hung them off the halters. When a frisky 2 yr old stands utterly still so you can strap weird stuff to their face, you know you have a sick pony.
The stuff is gross. Mix wood glue and calk together, then wildly sling it on everything. Including yourself. Drag heaping spoons full down your patients’ faces, muzzles, necks, and legs. Because like all kids they rub their gross noses on their ‘arms’. Have at least 25 miserable horses in various stages of draining, usually from 4 different lymph spots on the same head. We never forced a rupture. Never needed to. But the sound of a horse trying to breathe with lymph nodes that ruptured inwards was truly awful. If you ever wondered why it’s called strangles and not just strep-throat-for-horses, that sound. Nobody died, they just sounded like they might. And we got lucky, no one had it turn into bastard strangles.
When they were recovered enough to be turned back out (in a hospital pasture with other recovering kids because we needed the stall,) we had to strip the stall down to the clay, then spray it heavily with bleach, scrub the cinderblock walls with bleach (including scraping all the ‘glue’ off the walls,) and even run a mop dipped in bleach over the stall’s ceiling fan, making sure to soak the blades. Not quite sure why, we were just going to put another strangles victim in there…
All in all, I bet half the farm’s horses cycled through there.
Sounds like a very tough time!
Insane….I can’t even imagine the work and the worry.
Thank you so much for rescuing and taking care of these poor sweet animals. An animal should never have to go through this
Thank you for rescuing horses and treating them with love. I've had several horses in my lifetime, and all were rescues. Huge thanks and praise to you as well for exclusively doing positive reinforcement training! I wish more people understood how important this is, and how it affects the bond the animal will have: based on trust and not fear. Much love sent your way! This gentleman looked quite handsome and with a lovely gait to boot! Hard to believe this poor chap ended up at auction. Bless you all for what you do!
Thank you so much!
He looks like a horse I rescued years ago. The boy I rescued was about 800 years older and 800 pounds skinnier, but otherwise they resemble each other!❤ Thanks for rescuing horses!❤
It actually didnt look that bad considering how big it was ... more like a flowing river of milk. However I am absolutely sure it smelt terrible, and felt even worse for Zeus. What a brave boy he is ... thank you so much for taking care of him, and it. He looks soooo much happier!!! 🙂🌹
We never had horses on our ranch. Vehicles galore but no horses. Equine are interesting creatures. Some of the smaller ranches, 2000 acre spreads, had them. Their equine always seemed to be trying to harm themselves one way or another. Always ripping their hides open or getting some type of infection. Vet bills must have been expensive. It’s good that people like you and your family care for such beasts.
I love horses, and it hurts my heart to see them in any pain. They have always been my favorite animal.
Baby is being so patient. Thank you for the rescues!
Aww poor boy. Glad you helped give him some relief from the pain.
Such noble and beautiful animals. You could see him relax as the drainage occurred. ❤
Very gentle. Well done. He looked so relieved.
Wonderful to see the nasty pus pouring out and relieving this beautiful horse. I marvel at people like you who can and do relieve the suffering of our beautiful four-footed friends. Thank you so much!
What a beautiful baby ❤❤❤❤❤
So happy he is healed now
Zeus is a gorgeous stallion! Thank you for rescuing him and for treating his abscess. That poor horse suffering with that for who knows how long!! I have to say that I couldn’t believe my eyes when the vet opened the abscess and the infection started to drain out. There was so much that the vet kept pushing out of the opening and it seemed to keep draining for like five full minutes. Unbelievable the amount that she released from the side of his face!! He must he do relieved now and he looked totally healed; thank goodness. Now he can live his best life with new friends and caring people he can trust, That’s a wonderful thing!! Thank you all for caring for Zeus. I’m very happy for him!! Take care!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The amount of stuff coming out is crazy! Glad that beautiful boy is doing better! 🙏🏻
On behalf of the beautiful horse. Thankyou for draining his absess, you could see how he relaxed as the pain he was im subsided.
Thank you so much for rescuing these beautiful horses it is so wonderful what you do.❤
Damn you can literally see the relief in his eyes the more of that pus drains out. Poor guy. Glad he got help.
Poor Zeus, thank you for taking such good care of him. Hope he feels better soon.❤️🙏
He’s a beautiful boy! I’m so glad he’s feeling better.
You can see in his eyes the relief 😮💨 from the drainage. Bless you and thank you for all you do. 🙏🏽🐎😇⭕️❌
You were so gentle with him. ❤ Great to see him better and having fun rolling around.
Please dont block anything out this is a good opportunity to learn about strangles.
Thank you for explaining and sharing your video
THANK YOU FOR GOING TO THE AUCTIONS AND GETTING THE HORSES AND HAVING THEM TREATED MEDICALLY. I LOVE ZUS. I HAVE LEARNED WHAT STRANGLES ARE. THANK YOU.
he's absolutely beautiful!!! I'm so glad he's doing better. any contagious disease in a farm type environment is a nightmare.
Absolutely!
He looks so relieved. Thank y'all so much❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've never seen a horse so happy before. You guys did an amazing job at helping him. I cant even handle acne and i have opposable thumbs, i cant even imagine the pain and stress he must've been in.
Aww such a sweet and beautiful horse. I’m sure he is very grateful. Thanks for getting him and fixing him right up.
You are so kind
Thanks for all the great care of the beautiful horses.
Imagine the relief when that pressure is gone. Brave boy♥️
It makes my heart feel good to see an animal like this being helped and visibly feeling better.
That is unbelievable!! He must have felt so much better immediately.
Yes his whole attitude changed the very minute she released the pus. Before she did that he was tossing his head about afraid of the pain as she was touching the area.
@@johnmanning5568 Yes, you can actually see it! The world needs more caring people like you guys. Great job!
Several years ago, while teching at a large animal clinic, we had an outfitter horse come in with a SOCCER ball sized abscess on top of his hip from an injection site.The outfitter had vaccinated the herd then turned them out to pasture for a couple months and found this when they were rounded up. It was absolutely glorious when the vet lanced it! Goop literally shot out and hit the wall, drained without milking for a solid five minutes. It was the most satisfying moment of my entire six years there. ❤ Also the most nauseating - i still get sick when I think of the smell! 🤢
Good care...love these stories of helping these poor mistreared horseys.
This video has me in tears. It’s incredible what y’all do. This is amazing especially seeing the emotional support horse 😢 god bless y’all for everything you do for these incredible horses ❤
The sheer AMOUNT of liquid coming out of there was astounding! 😲 Glad that the horse is feeling better now! 🐴
The relief in his eyes is so sweet to see!! Handsome guy!
This beautiful animal is so lucky he ended up with such amazing people, well done!🇨🇦💖
Seeing him have such fun in the sand afterward was magical! So thrilled he is back to normal, you do such great work 💕
He's beautiful 😍
I applaud you all for these sanctuaries for all kinds of rescued animals ❤
What a beautiful beautiful horse he is! That must have been a huge relief!
Poor handsome guy. Thank you for helping him ❤ awe, so sweet when his horse friend comforted him 😢😊😊
This is beautiful. ❤ Thank you for being such beautiful advocates for these sweet animals. 😊
You're so kind 🥹
It’s good to see his recovery. We went through this battle with one of our favorite mares years ago.
Bless you. I’m always amazed by the way horses are traded and moved on by people. I know they’re expensive to keep but I just couldn’t do it.
Me neither
I'm so sorry buddy 😭 God bless this gentle vet. 🥰
So glad beautiful Zeus is totally healed now. Thank you for healing him. My niece's daughter is starting Veterinarian school this Fall and I know she's going to be a great vet!! Go Veronika!!
Poor baby. I know that had to hurt. Glad y’all got him better. Thank you!!🙏💖💞😇
Thank you for what you do for all these precious horses. Everything four legged or two league legged matters and deserves to live a great life the time that they're here
Thank you! We believe that too
Omgoodness, I know how Zeus feels. I had chronically infected lymph nodes behind ears. I had huge swellings and so much pain. Finally they removed them all together and I’ve felt so much better in the years since.
It’s so huge! I’m glad you were able to make a happy place for them to live.
Thank you for everything you do for them❤
Thank you for helping these stunning creatures . New sub here. The relief must have been immense!.
Thanks for the sub!
Poor guy. I bet he feels so much better! Bless you for doing what you do ❤
Poor sweet baby. Thanks For being kind and relieving his pain.
That was very satisfying, and what a massive relief for the guy! He healed up super quickly!
Zeus is a stud, I was so happy to see the instant relief he got. I'd say he handled everything like a Champion!❤
Sweet gentle boy! Such beautiful, soft eyes. Gratifying to see him rolling happily afterward!
Hey girls please don’t shade out things your doing please. Show it all and don’t be embarrassed about helping out animals that we all love. ❤
It’s not her, it’s a RUclips thing. They demonetize videos that are offensive or “overly graphic”. Vet Ranch and Bondi Vet do it now too. They won’t even make exceptions for disclaimers.
Sandi Brock can’t even show sheep mating but she can show a deformed lamb? How ridiculous
Thank you for all you do for the horses
So glad there are people out there that are willing to help these beautiful animals.
Bless you for helping this beautiful horse!
What a sweet soul. So happy everyone’s feeling better! New sub.
Poor old guy. You can tell how sweet he is.
