RESCUING BIG JOE

The rescue of big Joe!

This horse is named big Joe. He is draft cross that was donated to the Horseshoeing School a few years ago.

Riley trained him to ride and taught him the basics. Riley’s father, Don, owner of Rocking M Quarter Horses, found him to be a phenomenal ranch horse. Joe found his home at Don’s Horse ranch in central Idaho.

A few days ago, Joe fell into a deep hole in a pasture while checking cows. The hole was made by a leaky water mainline and was just big enough for Joe to wedge his whole body in. Thanks to quick thinking by Don Mickelsen, they saved him and he is making a full recovery.

  1. Poor Joe is definitely a bit stressed at the beginning.
    I have seen so many people copy this, narrate it totally wrong and butcher it completely. One Youtuber said the horse fell into a water hole after a storm. Hilarious. Why would a horse be outside wandering around in a storm wearing a saddle and a bridle? lol. Glad I found this, it sheds a little light on the situation.

  2. Excellent job! Y’all should be proud of what you did in such short order. It was handled in a quick, effective, in a safe manner with limited resources. Way To Go!

  3. Brilliant save of that beautiful Horse.
    Quickly and effectively and timely and very safe.
    Well done all ❤❤❤❤
    Thank you for being attentive and caring to this Horse.
    Congrats all around.❤❤❤❤

  4. It was great that you got poor Joe out and hopefully he's well but I have to be honest those dogs needed to be kept well away from the situation, big mistake having them running free around the situation, not good especially for the horse!

  5. I'm happy things worked out….this stressed me the fuk out..watching this thank you for doing what you could do…animals deserve this effort.
