    She's a good looking mare and well behaved - thank goodness you saved her!

      We agree! We don't get this lucky very often with rescue. Can you believe she would have gone to slaughter?!

    You picked a good one! Your tests really do reveal personality and physical capability.
    You mentioned showing us how you do your complete evaluation. I guess you meant your intake. I'd really like to see that. You're doing a great job!

    Is it just because she is underweight, or does she need a lot of work building her back end?

    I don't want to sound really really stupid but what is the difference between auctions and the killer feed lots

    • @rhfarmstables
      @rhfarmstables  2 года назад +3

      Great question! Auctions are where horses can be sold from seller to a large group of people. Kill lots are where horses purchased for slaughter wait until there are enough animals to fill a truck to go to either mexico or Canada.
      Oftentimes kill buyers will sell horses from their lot directly to people oftentimes through social media for inflated prices.

    Due you quarantine horses from the auction? I understand many auction horses have communicable diseases

    • @rhfarmstables
      @rhfarmstables  2 года назад +4

      Yes we do! We have a separate quarantine pasture where they stay for 1 month (or longer) to make sure any diseeases have run their course or are treated by our vet.

      @@rhfarmstables That's great news there was nothing bad that caused her to stumble like that! I always get concerned when I see this in a horse. Now that is taken care of, you can look into possible trauma issues why she is afraid or just lazy to pick up her feet.

    Babies chew on momma’s tails sometime. This is definitely a foal chew and not a scissor cut.

      We found out it was chewed by another horse! She didnt have her own foal but somebody definitely got nibbly.

    @anniewright6358 2 года назад +1

    She may have had a foal, you’d be able to tell that when you evaluated her, but she could have also been grazing with young cattle. I once paid for grazing where there would be no young cattle animals. Then he shifted my horse into an area where there WERE cattle, and my horse lost its tail. I was furious to say the least

    • @rhfarmstables
      @rhfarmstables  2 года назад +2

      Not often! We did ground work and round pen session prior to this I just didn't film it. Our previous work indicated enough about their personality, and that was a risk I felt comfortable taking. I've been doing this for a while and can usually tell how a session will go. The sessions here are very short so I didn't feel the need for my usual "riding uniform".
