The Netherlands Horse Rescue!

A friend of mine who has a horse farm and raises puppies sent this video to me. It is in my mind Operatic. Anyone who loves horses will find this inspiring. Watching these noble steeds march to safety and then cavort with their cohorts upon reaching safety brought tears to my eyes.

Thank you to those women in the Netherlands who thought this through and brought their rescue to fruition. These women understood horse culture and used it to save the lives of hundreds of elegant, regal and trusting animals.

Sorry but as I don’t read Dutch I couldn’t figure out how to post the image, so you will have to click on the link right here. Believe me it is well worth it.

A hat tip to Cin who signs-off with this quote: If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience. - Woodrow Wilson

Right on! Always pay attention to the animal’s instinct. That is what these women in the Netherlands did.

You should thank ALL those involved in rescuing these horses. Four women led them out, yes, but there was a large grooup of people, both men and women, who were involved with the rescue.
Men mapped the course for the women to follow, as there was fear of underwater barbed wire fences. The men waded accross to find the right route. Others, men and women brought food to the hourses and brought some of the foals and smaller horses across by boat. If you look at the video you will see men behind the horses moving them toward the escape route.
The planning and decisions were made by both men and women. Please tell the whole story.
When we work together great things happen.
