Horse Reunites With Her Stablemate After 8 Weeks In The Hospital

Understanding animal behavior can be a real mystery sometimes, but it's also pretty fascinating to see just how much they're similar to humans.

In the following video, we see a horse named Roxie return to her home after eight long weeks. According to the video's description on YouTube, Roxie had been in the South Shore Equine Clinic in Plympton, MA all that time being treated for wounds after she was impaled in the neck by something. We don't know details of the unfortunate accident, but we do know that it was very hard on this beautiful horse, both mentally and physically.

During Roxie's time away, she was unable to eat and lost about 150 pounds. Although the horse is steadily gaining weight and on the road to recovery, it's still a long road ahead. "She coughs when she eats, a liquid form of grass comes out her nose, and water comes out of her nose when she drinks. Some nerve damage in the tongue is the latest problem. We are hopeful that she will continue to improve," her owner wrote on YouTube. However, this video makes us wonder if Roxie's health problems were the most difficult part of being away.

Just like in this incredible reunion, when Roxie finally returns back to the ranch, she is overjoyed to see her stablemate, Quinn, who is equally happy about her return. What they do next absolutely melted my heart.

I'm so happy these two are back together! Please SHARE this wonderful reunion on your Facebook page if you love horses as much as we do!
