FEEDING TIME For Our Auction Rescue Clydesdale Horse!

[@podunk_woman]

No more listless, one-foot-the-grave look in the eye. It's more like gratitude, hope, and still some hunger 😊 I'm here pulling for Oliver. Phew! For a horse I'll never touch, he sure has touched me

[@renayeblack5906]

Amen

[@raynonabohrer5624]

He beautiful

[@april5666]

What a perfect way to put it!

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@sarahwheeler1594]

We’ll said👍🏻,

[@anncolvin7448]

The phrase "eating like a horse" takes on a whole new meaning lol. Good to see Oliver enjoying his new life. Thank you for getting him and taking care of him ❤️

[@daldog09]

He looks like he’s feeling better. He doesn’t seem depressed anymore. He’s such a sweet boy.

[@dmcfarlane4976]

Yes! I noticed a huge difference in him since the first time we saw him at the auction, where he looked so depressed. He is loving life from the look of it.

[@valeriestevens5250]

@@dmcfarlane4976 He's loving the food, anyway! 😆

[@angelajohn6618]

When Oliver fills out, he will be such a stud.

[@theremainingremnant2639]

Oliver is following like a dog and his eyes are shining and he is so much more alert with his head held up .. great job

[@Laurencemardon]

Ikr what’s in your Pocket, though!!? He invents. Best part so far in this series so far about halfway they- swinging by dads office to weight the feed event. I’m n k 😂😂😮❤🎉

[@karaamundson3964]

He loves JR because JR loves him ❤

[@fleetskipper1810]

Oliver has the beautiful eyes and eyelashes of a Disney princess!

[@junerose7625]

I love that! 😂

[@bestoddisee]

Help me Rhonda, help, help me Rhonda! That kept going through my mind while you took your sheep home. Your story line is getting better. Nicely done! Oliver looks much softer, happier. His eyes have changed.

[@kingsdaughter9659]

😂. Me too “help help me Rhonda” 🎶 Lol 😆

[@rhondakanderson1120]

Rhonda Carol is my name. Carol after my sweet Loving Morher❤❤❤❤😊

[@jeannerogers7085]

Oliver looks a bit better already, and O my, does he love you!

[@karaamundson3964]

*ONE* *HUN-* *DRED* ...plus, Luthier Dad, how cool is THAT?!! 🎻🎸🪕

[@pattimiller9157]

Awwww Rhondas awesome 💗give her treats dad

[@janicelholland8051]

They say you can tell alot about someone by their eyes. Oliver has the most beautiful eyes and he looks so much more happier you can see it💜

[@DG-yd4nh]

Agree,and those eyelashes 😍

[@carolvose9795]

Was never a horse type person, but love your videos and learning a lot.

[@CJ-pt4ku]

Oliver is so much improved, you really know what you’re doing. Great job.

[@deathbysnusnu1970]

Oooo boy, Jr. Oliver loves you for more than just feeding him. He definitely likes your attention.

[@forestturnings5732]

".... not too bad." Are you kidding. That's REMARKABLE !! Very impressive with that dog.

[@pappete9988]

I know nothing about horses but i can recognise a happy animal and Oliver sure looks like one to me. 👍👊

[@scottshulers373]

He looks so happy and at peace..

[@sarahwheeler1594]

🥰!

[@CarnivoreStork]

🥰 please share the Apple Treats with the rest of your horses 🥰

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

You got it!

[@vickimeyers2672]

Oliver is beginning to look better, and was obviously enjoying his good, nutritious food.

[@brendaredmond4678]

Your wife is very lucky. You are a handsome, charming caring man. Very hard to come by. And you are funny!

[@terrybacot3858]

It's hard to believe the improvement in Oliver in just a week. He looked so sad when you got to Texas almost like he was ready to lay down and not get up.

[@bookmouse2719]

3 months, I'd say Rhonda is supreme, I don't know if dogs understand discipline as much as positive operant conditioning. Dogs are all love and heart.💗🐕

[@cuthbert2546]

It's obvious that, when Oliver first sees you, getting a cuddle from you is more important than food! Then he takes a little mouthful of the alfalfa then returns for a cuddle. This champion is going to give y'all back 10 fold...

[@msk4795]

Wow.. Ronda does great for 3.5 months! Good girl, and wonderful job, Dad.

[@valeriepasbrig742]

I don't know if you've noticed, but that boy just loves you!

[@kimwilliford6303]

❤ I love Oliver. He seems to be a much happier horse now you're taking such great care of him. JR, you did an excellent job with Image and Oliver. I wish you didn't have to get rid of April. She is such a great horse for the kids.

[@pinkywilliams8063]

Oliver looks so good in his eyes... Makes me happy! Rhonda did a good job today...

[@robindelude3787]

That video of you seeing Oliver for the first time, that was the first time I saw one of your videos. I subscribed when you said you had found him in Texas. Now I watch not only for Oliver, but also for the other horses & everything else on your homestead. There's a lot going on, but the setting is so beautiful. And you folks seem like good people. Congrats on 20,000 subscribers!

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Awe, we really appreciate that. Thank you!

[@marilyngoecke5330]

I, too , saw this when you first saw him… when you didn’t get him, I was sooooo disappointed. Came back when I got the notice of having found him… followed immediately and watching all that goes on! Thank you!

[@candyphillips2642]

Thars the same with me. I love that sweet boy. ❤

[@fahren299]

Make Oliver the kissing horse next Valentines Day. Lips like those shouldn’t be wasted 😂

[@malapoyo]

Thank you for letting us hear him chewing. I wanna kiss that nose SO BAD! 🤗❤🤗❤🤗

[@wbafeatherdancer]

I vote for an entire Oliver ASMR channel/video

[@angelajohn6618]

Oliver is eating like a King!

[@annietind262]

Can't wait to see him all filled out. He's a beaut. ❤

[@cyndiebill6631]

I love watching Rhonda work. She knows her job and is doing amazingly well for only 3 months of training. Oliver is looking better every new video you make. ❤🐴👍

[@aggy5838]

Oliver likes the sheep, I get that, they are adorable ❤

[@1105pitbull]

"That'll do" Rhonda. Remember the movie "Babe" where the little pig wants to herd the sheep? "That'll do, Pig." So very interesting, all of it!!!! So happy I discovered your channel and have become a part of the pack.

[@ebthepurple]

its hard to think this baby was sold from a good family and then was abused. he must have been so confused. I am happy to see he has you.

[@mommapancakess]

Chablis is going to foal first! Oliver's eyelashes are straight out of a fairy tale! You go Rhonda!! I LOVE YOU OLIVER!!

[@cathycrowder2226]

It's so nice to see Oliver get a new home! My horse passed on years ago at the approx. age of 38. She was also a rescue and what a gem she was! I always felt privileged to be her owner as like Oliver she was sweet as was the stable favorite! Her last 3 years was walks around the neighborhood which she loved. Your feeding program is spot on and you are doing an awesome job! Rhonda is actually doing a great job for so little time in her training!!

[@sharonharker9942]

Oliver is looking and acting so much better. He knows he has a home and a family who loves him. And man he has beautiful long eye lashes. 😂

[@deborahrich2666]

What a difference, his personality is developing!

[@jackiewilson6249]

Thanks for an update on Oliver. He loves you.

[@Wanda370Z]

I grew up on a sheep farm . My dad had collies and border collies , he would do these whistles and chirps and those dogs would herd like no ones business. Thank you for bringing back a treasured memory of my dad and his herding dogs. Love Oliver's eyelashes , so long , a woman would love those ...Great video.

[@katlynes]

Thanks, As Clydesdale Horses ( as well as Shetland Ponies + Highland Cattle, didn't want to leave any1 out or offend any1) are a HUGE symbolism of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, I can't thank or praise you + Ur lovely family high enough for rescuing this Beautiful Big Gentle Giant !! I don't understand the point of owning these Beautiful ( or any other Horses 4 that matter) Gentle + Loyal Horses that will love you + work for you till they physically can't do it anymore, in the appalling conditions that you rescued Oliver from?? + I was so pleased to hear in 1 of your follow up videos that the authorities are now aware of the downright criminal treatment that their Horses are having to endure! I think most of people living in the USA these days tend to associate Clydesdale's with the Budweiser Brand due to the amazing teams they have pulling the large Budweiser Wagons but as you probably already know their Origin + Heritage lies right here in Scotland ? I've watched the behind the scenes videos of the Budweiser Stables + their Breeding Facilities + they treat + care 4 their Clydesdales like Royalty , and although I'm mayb a bit bias towards them, I think its exactly how they "should" be treated unless they are "lucky" enough to find themselves with a Beautiful, loving family like yourselves, living in a Beautiful place with stunning scenery all around them as well as some beautiful new friends . Oliver ( unless you'd like to choose another name 4 Oliver more associated with Scotland? ie; mayb the name of 1 of Our beautiful Glen's like,Glen Coe in Lochaber (prob the most famous of all our too many to mention Glens ) or 1 of Our beautiful Isles ( islands) Arran, Skye, Orkney , we actually have over 700 Isles off the Scottish coastline , 1 in particular, Mull has by far the best named + most beautiful capital / port of all ( in my humble opinion) "TOBERMORY", which translates to Well of Mary . You could even shorten it to " Toby" ? Google Mull then Google Tobermory ,Scotland + have a look. The beautiful Highland Cattle are free to roam on Mull + believe it or not, they even have right of way on the roads , we've encountered them everytime we've been there, with their abs adorable calves ,that act look more like Teddy Bears than calves + every time we've had to pull off the ( tiny) road + the Cattle continue to walk down the centre of the road! Ha ha + then + "only " then can you pull out back on2 the road + continue on..I enjoyed your channel b4 U managed to rescue Oliver but now I actually can't wait to see ur latest uploads. Thanx again for doing this wonderful thing+ changing Oliver's life forever. But I'd be willing 2 bet that Oliver won't be the last soul that you + you're family will save. Love Kat, Glasgow ,Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❣️❣️

[@karenduncan6004]

Oliver is so much more alert and lively now! Good to see!

[@reeritz1280]

Why do I find this dude so interesting? Got pulled in on the Oliver story...but really subscribed cause of his narratives. Hmmm...maybe because in our fake world today he seems so REAL...thanks dude😆👍

[@lisaortinau9011]

Being my little brother, JR is a hoot! You should hear some of the stories about his wild adventures 🤣

[@sandyhorrobin9575]

He has really long gorgeous eye lashes. He looks so much better. 👍 Even those bald patches on his face look so much better. 👍♥️😍💖💕👏

[@candicerunyon2762]

Watching Rhonda work is fastinating. She is trying really hard. Bless her heart. So glad to see Oliver looking happy. He probably misses being with another horse or horse's. Sheep are still company. Keeping livestock and keeping them healthy is a lot of work. Be sure to take care of yourself too!

[@Lonesome__Dove]

Oliver had that fight in him and its really paying off for him now. He has a home thats comfortable and all kinds of people that care. You know he had that fight because he never laid down despite being in pain and desperately tired because of his protein problems. A horse with thay will to live is really a beautiful thing.

[@Jules-zg1ip]

Oliver is developing a little sparkle in his eye! ✨ He's happier already!

[@befunkrn]

Oliver's eyelashes are so long & adorable!

[@Grace2Hope]

I love every bit of this! I recommend you speak life over Oliver! Every time you feed him or visit him, pet and declare, “Oliver is completely healed of EMP! He is sound and normal in the name of Jesus!” Add in anything else you want to see in him. 🙏🏻

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

❤️

[@helenkelley8788]

Rhonda did pretty good for only 3 months of trainings.,the sheep.look good..your folks place looks great...Oliver is looking much better each video..hope the medication works well for him ..

[@Boyland8692]

Rhonda lay down Rhonda lay down!! Who doesn’t love a bit of Rhonda. 🤣🤣🤩🤩👏👏🤩🇦🇺🇦🇺💙💜

[@marypugliese5424]

Oliver has the most beautiful long eyelashes.

[@sallyedmondson9275]

Those eyelashes Oliver ?! You sure gorgeous ! 😍

[@kajinsautumn9833]

Look at those huge eyes and looooong eyelashes at 9:45!!

[@P2Zip]

Oliver knows he is safe and getting the care and groceries he needs. He seems much more relaxed. Great job!

[@louisebcohen420]

Rhonda was VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!🥰 Well done Rhonda!!!!!!!!!!!👍❤️

[@Hollybank5]

Oliver may be eating you out of house and home 😮, but it seems that he is a labor of love 💕!!! What a sweet soul .

[@rogehnimunoz4327]

Oliver is looking great!!! Love to see Rhonda at work. May all the mama horses have great babies and excellent health. Your sheeps looking healthy.

[@GDixon-ch3yl]

Oliver is improving steadily. Rhonda is adorable. Everyone is on a learning curve in life. 😂

[@erikadeyzel2199]

Thank for sharing moments in your life on the farm with us and sweet Oliver's journey. You are truly blessed. Now I understand why they call America God's country. 🤗

[@patriciastacpoole5928]

I love your channel! It’s my new favourite!! Oliver is looking so much happier!! 💕

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Thank you!! 😊

[@hummingbird_chirps8520]

Mine, too!🤗

[@samd8631]

That satisfying crunch of food with Oliver.... Beyond sweet boy!

[@kimgardiner390]

Those long eye lashes and his kind eyes, what a star Oliver is. thank you for all you do

[@carolpom6920]

Thanks for all the love you’ve shown Oliver. Hope this helps and God bless! ❤️

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Thank you! And yes, of course it helps!❤

[@Boyland8692]

I love listening to Oliver eat I do the same with my horses could listen to it forever!! 🤩🤩🤩👏👏🇦🇺🇦🇺💜💙

[@coolgram6139]

Rhonda is doing great. So is Oliver. Love the videos.

[@roniboyd613]

I think Rhonda is doing great❤ Oliver is acting so much better, thank you❤

[@DipityS]

Rhonda's brilliant! She's a good girl. Oliver is looking better - I know there's still a long way to go but he has more energy and he's reacting more.

[@Duckiiesss]

His eyelashes are gorgeous. Good job im glad they’re people out there that care 🎉🎉

[@kbaker9804]

Am I just being hopeful or is Oliver already looking a little more lively? I hope I’m right. The border collie is so precious!

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Well we haven’t said to much yet….but I think you may have reason to be hopeful!

[@deborahabernathy1757]

Oliver looks so much better in just 2 weeks! JR, you were so funny going to your Dad's to weigh some grains. Just like a little boy sneaking around , sure your Dad doesn't mine. Chablis, I think first. Thank You for Sharing!

[@whatsinaplant4417]

Oh my gosh. The close up of Oliver’s face when he was eating his feed was lovely. He has the most beautiful eyes and those eyelashes are so pretty. There’s lots of life in those eyes. Bless you all!

[@cjacob9875]

Oliver is looking so much better! Ronda is doing great with only 3 months of " working dog" training. I appreciate how you dont over discipline, because she just needs a reminder! Ronda 🤪 run, down, go 😋😍???

[@roxannelomas8918]

Rhonda my favorite breed, most intelligent working dog. Oliver's eyes show me he is living his best life. Thanks again. Granna

[@nannybluebelle8643]

Oliver’s Eyelashes…… omg they are Gorgeous, just like him xxxx 🌻

[@BrienaSkysong1]

Something I did for weighing hay (and tack, as well as feed) was I bought a 400lb limit hanging digital scale. First I hang the bucket I'm dumping the scoops of feed into and reset the scale to zero so the weight of the bucket doesn't get added to the feed weight, and go from there. It's been pretty accurate, and I can hang it in the barn or in my bedroom doorway, in the case of my feed, since my feed barrels are in the livingroom lol. For my guys, they get free choice grass hay in round bales (the two Thoroughbreds get their round bales put in HayChix nets because otherwise, they massacre their bales and waste the majority. The saddlebred/saddlebred cross is a tidy eater, so never needs one lol), beet pulp pellets, Albers Special 6, Alfalfa Pellets, and Omolene 400, all soaked in hot water for an hour. Old lady Kate chokes if her feed's not soaked up, so they may as well all get soaked food. I'd love to add orchard hay and flake alfalfa, but money.

[@theavandenberg6876]

He definitely looks content.

[@cynthiaforee1564]

Love seeing Oliver!! ❤

[@nancyconnell3886]

I'm so glad that such a good caregiver got Oliver! You can see that he feels better because he moves better & his coat is shiner!❤

[@annfinch-cl1gl]

He looks a bit better already and curious good sign x

[@KathrynRose-schultz-qs6qw]

Loving your content with all the farm and critters.

[@shirleyparent1873]

Thank you for sharing. Love watching Ronda work the sheep. Oliver's started to look good. Great job to all of you.💕✌️

[@mfc4591]

Thanks for being so kind to all your animals. As to which horse foals first ........ Only God knows.

[@kayBTR]

You get squirt some water on the dusty hay to prevent it from giving them heaves😃

[@jeannewallace8967]

I think Souix may surprize you and go last regardless of dates....loved watching the dog learn her job

[@EdieDawnJay]

I agree with you! Her tummy is still hanging real low and forward, she's not prepping to shift that baby any time soon haha

[@ccasey1904]

I got the same impression.

[@nikkirutland9814]

He certainly loves his food!, poor boy he's making up for lost time....Ronda just needs to learn a little more patience, so lovely seeing a border collie doing what they're bred for...go Oliver! We love you...🐎

[@junerose7625]

At 10:15 when jr asked if the viewers are ready for the surprise, the sheep said yes!

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

😂

[@lynnclark4208]

Thank you for sharing his precious recovery! 💜 ❤❤❤

[@foxyember]

The paint has her wax plugs showing!!! She be first I think.

[@ErnieB]

Oliver is acting like he's in Heaven. compared to where he has been, he's not wrong. This was interesting! Thanks for posting.

[@nettyferguson4874]

Oliver is so lively now ❤

[@Theagingequestrian5335]

His eyes are so much brighter and his expression has more energy. Great job 🎉🎉🎉

[@gillhall7590]

[@marycoker99]

I love watching Oliver and his new life. ❤ 😊

[@carmelduggan6547]

Oliver really does love his food, well he's a growing lad with a lot to make up for and he seems perfectly happy to tuck in as soon as he sees food🐴🐎🐴

[@jillrichards8260]

Can't beat a border collie for getting deeply involved in their work lol

[@stardust949]

Oliver has such long eyelashes! My guess for Motherhood: SIOUX

[@randygunn9499]

Ronda is doing great for time trained! She is really a great family member.

[@beverlywhitehurst3364]

Enjoyed watching Rhonda herd, she's doing great. Love seeing that Oliver is doing much better. You're a God send for your beautiful animals
