Rescue Horse RIBS OUT Can't Take Saddle ~ SOO MANY CRACKS!

Spartan survived the racetrack, lived as a work horse, being sold for meat and still is one of the sweetest horses you'll ever meet. From Stringhalt to dislocated ribs, there was a lot for Dr. Doug to work on to get this horse living as comfortable as possible.

The leading organization, in my opinion, that has Veterinarians and Chiropractors that become Animal Chiropractors is the Animal Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA) They have a website with a "Find a Doctor" tab/database: www.animalchiropractic.org
This a good resource for all that are looking for a well trained doctor near them.

Race horses are NOT work horses. I can't think of anything nice to say about the Amish. Spartan is a gorgeous elegant boy and the Amish certainly didn't deserve him. Thank you for saving him and giving him a loving home.

I don't understand any reason to use horse to plough this day and age . It is absolutely cruel .

@Ariella-mx3xq4cw6n Ай бұрын

@@florac6906 He would probably be used as a carriage horse. Belgium's are the plough horses. It's their job. What they were bred for. As for the Armish too many of them treat their horses badly. It is the way they treat them, not the fact they use them for what they were bred for that is the problem. They do not get veterinary help when it's need and carry on working them until its too late to treat them. Or are old. Then the horses end up in the slaughter pipe line. The slaughter pipe line is terrible. Something I've learned a lot about from Horse Plus Rescue. Its nothing like sending a horse to an abattoir in the UK.

@Miss.kittty 27 күн бұрын

Yes, I've heard they're very cruel. Animals are just things to them.

@soyoucametosee7860 27 күн бұрын

I have heard those gossiping lies about the Amish, too. However none of you have any experience with the Amish. You just listen to the second hand lies and gossip.

@user-pd4od1xm7w 26 күн бұрын

I'm not a fan of the level, or lack thereof, of care given to horses that came from the Amish that I work on. However, this is a Standardbred racehorse, not a thoroughbred. I had a barn of standardbred racehorses (both pacers and trotters) on my book until gas went up and it was too far to travel. Thoroughbreds would likely do very poorly as cart horses on the road, and not saying it's right, but these standardbreds are raced pulling a person on hard surfaces, so at least they are as prepared for that rough life better than what most think of as a "racehorse."

Not for the first time that I've seen a big horse, hurt, discarded and rescued after the amish used them. I'm just happy that some animals are lucky to be rescued after they've been used and have no more value for those that treat animals like machines or something to profit from. But even more lucky, they get you visiting! Your calm demeanor really helps, plus we all learn alot from you 😊❤

Spartan seems very sad & hurt. This horse fell & it's ribs popped out (same thing happened to my friend). The problem with these injuries is they often misalign again because the muscles are inflamed. Like humans great care needs to be taken afterwards, massage & topical creams can help in the healing process. Amazing AMAZING PEOPLE, thank you.

A horse a hard work life then gets rewarded with that.... And you can see the sadness in their eyes... Heart wrenching.. The endorphins were really flowing in him at the end. I love that.
