BEAUTIFUL Forest Cart Ride With Our Clydesdale, OLIVER!

This was Oliver’s first time taking the cart OFF ROAD😜 We have some really amazing and beautiful trails on our homestead and on Jr’s parents property that we are blessed to get to use. Oliver did amazing OF COURSE! This was only about his 5th time pulling the fore cart.
Oliver is a two year old Clydesdale stallion that we rescued earlier this year with the help of our viewers. He was very sick when we first got him and REALLY Underweight. He has come a long way and made a full recovery from EPM. He is now well and strong enough to start training to pull and eventually ride (Of course with the ok from our vet and chiropractor). Oliver has had quite the journey! Make sure to watch his other videos to catch up on everything! This is where his story begins • Oliver's Auction - Fir...

Oliver sure has come a long way from that sickly little baby that you rescued. He is thriving under your care, JR. Life couldn't be better for him than with you.😍💖

[@crtclb]

Oliver’s improvement is impressive and quite a testament to your skill and care. He is living his best life- thanks for sharing it with us!

[@eileenshaw5960]

This is very exciting seeing Oliver pulling a cart over all kinds of terrain and doing so well. You have a true gem of a horse in Oliver. ❤

WOW it is so great seeing Oliver thrive and learning that he's not just a beautiful decoration! I bet he is so proud that he can be useful and Jr, you and your family are wonderful!

[@bonsaidouglas9180]

What a beautiful ride . He does so well and I'll bet he enjoys it almost as much as you do . 🤠 Oliver's slow walk is something that you just have to get used to 😂🤣 Think of it as stress - free 🙆

[@susanbelida6981]

❤ Beautiful, powerful Oliver!! He's an inspiration to me. Lord bless our big baby Oliver and all of you and all the animals!!

[@catherineferguson7388]

Well done Oliver, we are all so proud off how far you have come , we love you to ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕👍⭐️🤟🏼✌️🐴. Thank you Jr for supporting Oliver. Xxxxxx

[@sheseesyou]

Oliver will have a fuller, happier life, having a meaningful job helping the family farm. Every animal including humans are fulfilled when they are useful and love their home/family. We have forgotten animals feel important when given tasks to learn and do. Standing around in a field eating till you're full everyday with no purpose is the worst life, to me its = to a prison term. In nature, horses have jobs to do, protection, finding food and water, evading threats, breading, wintering and finding certain minerals deposits.

[@billyose3239]

Never am I disappointed watching your progress with Oliver, he is absolutely a very calm and good minded horse. The good lord brought you guys together for the right reasons and I am glad he did. Keep up the great work Jr. your hard work is definitely showing great results.

[@donnacourtenay7656]

Seeing him now makes me realise that I've missed him terribly. He is such a handsome boy. I sure do love him. ❤

[@padfoot3]

Oliver pulling that heavy cart with 2 adults is a testament to everything you have done to nourish and train him. So wonderful 💗

[@debh3404]

I'm absolutely SPEECHLESS. Unbelievable to see where he is now knowing that just a short time ago he was so sick and completely untrained. I'm so impressed.

[@mikehenry6284]

It's so funny you should say that, because yeah I was thinking boy is that cart ever noisy 😂. Oliver is just so awesome and beautiful. You would never know how ruff his life was at the very beginning, obviously before JR and family bought him and literally brought him back from deaths door 😱. I mean he had EPM, which has killed many a horse. But all the round the clock care, love, doctoring, and attention he's gotten, has brought him through it all. Oliver really has an amazing story. Love and Blessings to the entire Rosa family ❤ 🙌 Jennifer

Didn't Oliver do well !! That was a long trek and up and down into those brook's were tricky but our boy was doing the work happily.. it's great seeing him so healthy and happy..all the good food and the exercise is making him grow .muscle and height too. He sure is a quick learner and has taken to it so well. Whatever you ask of him he does. He trusts JR completely and knows he is safe with his boss in tow..lovely video to see his steady progress. 🇬🇧💞🙏✝️👏👍🐎🐴👏👍🐾🐕🦌🎁🎅🎄🇺🇸

Thank you for a wonderful tour on a horse drawn cart. I am so glad Oliver came into your lives and for your sharing with us his journey. ❤️

[@maryfrancessullivan1170]

JR, I just love Oliver! He is the sweetest horse and is so eager to please you. You have done an amazing job working and training him and the bond between the two of you is heart warming. I am learning so much from your videos because I have never had the pleasure of owning a horse, but I love horses and think that they are such beautiful creatures. You and all of your family are such special loving people and your farm is amazingly beautiful. Keep up the great videos! Have a blessed holiday season!❤😊🐴🙏🏻❤️‍🩹

Oliver is a very beautiful horse!

[@ruthbickerstaffe1915]

Such a most beautiful ride that Oliver and yourself took us on. He is such a good boy. I am so happy to watch this beautiful trail in the sunshine. Do you think Oliver likes taking you on his cart. I guess he is getting used to the Trails. God bless everyone at Homestead 🙏🌠💗

[@SilvaSeraphim]

I used to drive Carts and Sulkies, Your reins are too short and need to be longer so that you can SIT on the tails. At least this is what I was taught. You leave a nice long line but sit on the ends so that if you ever drop a line it does not flap and possibly get entangled in the wheel or in the horses legs.

[@regenabray3769]

JR, that was very impressive. Oliver did such a good job

[@brendaredmond4678]

Oliver and JR. They just go together.❤❤

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

I enjoyed going on the cart ride with you and your friend and Oliver. It certainly was a beautiful fall day.❤😊

[@victoriah.2083]

Emerie, I think most viewers would luv to have the cart ride vid done additionally w little or no narration, but w tack jangles & background music, (like you had), and in reel time. As a relaxing ASMR. I would love to have just one posted- to see if peeps would watch. I would. So many peeps can't be in the country or want to experience the "olde timey" ways. Thanks for considering this. And thanks to JR & everybody's OLIVER aka "Ollie." Blessings & joy to ya'll. 😊❤

[@bonsaidouglas9180]

We love listening to Emeri And He is NOT aka Ollie . His name is ~ Oliver ~ Period .

[@victoriah.2083]

@@bonsaidouglas9180 Pardon moi. Didn't know the name was so proprietary. I stand corrected. I like Ollie as in Laurel & Hardy. Didn't mean to jangle your harness. Jeesh.

[@bonsaidouglas9180]

@@victoriah.2083 he was named after Oliver Twist the orphan that went from orphanage to orphanage and never having enough to eat . Like Oliver going from sale barn to sale barn and slowly starving to death . It has meaning . My harness is fine 🤠🤣

[@victoriah.2083]

@@bonsaidouglas9180 Thank you for sharing. I missed his naming origin. Hope it is NOW. As to OT- I didn't remember the story having multiple orphanages featured. And as to OLIVER the Clydesdale I remember only 2 former owners prior to the auction at which JR & Emerie rescued him. This is according to one vid of JR describing his research. It was the 2nd owner who did/could not give the care and nurture that OLIVER deserved, unfortunately. Or rather stars being aligned as they do, without the auction YT would never have had the chance to see what good care, patience and love can do for such a wonderful horse as OLIVER. If there were more owners please copy link and insert time stamp. Thank you.

I've seen some of JR's dad's pond videos. He improved the drainage and increased the size of the pond, He has recently finished a wall (seen at 1:26) and intends to build a water wheel. I admire his skills and hard workmanship.

Wonderful! I truly enjoy seeing him in action & my gosh how he has grown! One thing I really love about this channel is that you consistently talk openly about issues and problems plus possibilities. It’s good to learn not only that there is a problem but also how to (possibly) solve it. Thank you for that!

[@JessicaStinson-og1rq]

I don’t know if I ever commented on this before or not. I have a beautiful Missouri Foxtrotter his name is Quinn and he is sorrel. He actually won a lot of ribbons when he was younger. We got him as a rescue and he was suffering from EPM but three different vets misdiagnosed his walk as a stifle injury, he started getting worse. Had I never seen your channel when you first got Oliver I would not have probably ever learned about the p.m. after watching your videos I watched a lot more videos, ask the vet different people who talked about a PM and showed videos of horses with it and how they walked and looked at some of the different symptoms. I was able to diagnose that that’s what my horse had. we started him on a three month regime of medicine, and also some anti-inflammatories thrown in. We changed his feed and started exercising him. He actually did get better notice sleep better in the first seven days now it’s been exactly a month he’s putting on a little weight and muscle, but his gate is good again and he even trots very nicely I used to be afraid he would fall over his leg was so wobbly. Thank you for showing Oliver and talking about what you went through to help him. I continue to enjoy your channel and really enjoy watching Oliver pull a cart.

[@fleetskipper1810]

What a cool story. So glad that Oliver was able to help your horse. EPM is nothing to sneeze at. You had more curiosity about what was wrong than the vets did. Good for you!

[@molitorsk]

All animals are so precious - they need kindness and care. No reason for cruelty or neglect, even if their raised for food, in my opinion even wildlife responds to care and kindness - it is always like music to hear animals being praised and talked to. I do understand one at times need to be stern for safety reasons - but time spent just bonding is huge. Love this channel - really appreciate and admire your knowledge shared. ❤
