OLIVER’S SHOPPING SPREE! - Rescue Clydesdales Journey Continues!

[@carmelduggan6547]

For a two year old in a strange place, Oliver is doing just so wonderfully well, just shows how much he trusts you after rescuing him, truly great🐴🐎🐴

[@Christian_Girl120]

Yes he is. He is such a sweetheart, and being so patient. It takes a lot of trust to do that.

[@therese6090]

Retire a 100 per cent healthy 2,5 year old horse is madness. He will be a beatuiful stallion and great drafthorse in the care of your family. Go Oliver!

[@mommapancakess]

Absolute insanity. That would be like being in prison. Nothing to ever do but eat. What a depressing life. There is a lot of mental illness in the world today. I pray for them.

[@maureenmcnamara995]

We can never get enough of Oliver's video. He's such a gentle horse, patient, quiet, and stands majestic. Loves JR. As with all the animals, large and small. Homestead horsemanship is a great loving home. Thank you, and God bless.

[@cattymajiv]

For a stallion of only 2 years old, Oliver is so amazingly good natured! ❤❤❤

[@jenifereddings6190]

He's being such a good boy!!!!! As long as JR is right next to him, he's ok with the world!! What a great relationship they have.

[@doriskovalcik442]

Oliver was so well behaved throughout this whole process. A totally new process. He’s a good boy. And treats don’t hurt either.

[@janetgallo5720]

To rescue is divine. And to give a 2 1/2 year old old horse a mission, a job, any activity that makes him feel useful, something that he wants to do for his own physicality is a blessing.

[@hildacasey7083]

I can’t understand people that think like that . Oliver is going to be happier doing what his best friend is doing. He will be happier being a horse. Doing what horses do.

[@shelliwani]

That was a fantastic video! I never knew how much it takes to put a harness on a horse. Oliver was so calm for the whole thing. You have come so far with him. He obviously loves and trust you. He is so healthy and his coat shines just like all of your horses. I just love watching the adventures of Oliver. Your family is just the best! Can't wait to see him pulling whatever. He will be great as he has your guidance and love ❤ God bless you and your family for the love and care you have given Oliver. Can't wait for the next video 😊

[@shellyrussell5567]

Oliver is such a good boy and you all have been a wonderful blessing to him. I love your videos

[@moccasinlanding]

What an adventure with a young Clydesdale! 😅I am so impressed by Oliver's behavior and patience with this new experience. So many horses have a promising beginning, but life happens to their owners, and the horse may have detours from this peaceful path, to become like BLACK BEAUTY........like many young girls, I agonized over that story, which remains in my heart to this day. (And I am now 86, going on 87, God willing!)

[@dianalynntritch1970]

I'M 76 AND KNOW JUST WHAT YOU MEAN! SO SPECIAL TO SEE THESE FAMILY VALUES! ❤

[@JV-pj7dz]

Hi there. I'll add my two cents here. I'm 73 and love watching the family's attachments to each other and to the horses. JV

[@cathymontgomery7295]

Oliver will be happier if he has a job and something to occupy his mind. If he got neglected and bored he might get bratty. Discipline is a good thing.

[@JV-pj7dz]

Hello JR and family -- Loved this informative video. The woman who sold you the harness was really generous with her knowledge of the harness and how to fit it to Oliver properly -- thank goodness, right? JR -- your discussion at the end of the video regarding Oliver having a purpose -- the importance of his interaction with you -- and how those things add immeasurably to the quality of his life -- so smart -- so logical. I happen to agree with those concepts -- but for anyone who had not agreed -- the examples you cited with the 'purpose' of various dog breeds drove the point home convincingly. Your prioritizing of Oliver's health care is made clear in the fact that he is examined by both a veterinarian and chiropractors. I've said it before -- that perhaps the reason Homestead Horsemanship is one of my favorite channels -- has a lot to do with your "heart" with the horses. Just love it! Best regards to you and the family. JV

[@BBnSam1215]

Agree. Many animals are not happy without a job. As people with malinois or border collies know. They get destructive and bored without something to do.

[@tracymacfarlan8959]

Oliver was such a well behaved boy during his fitting !! You got a very good lesson on hitching everything. Good thing you have it on video. I would never be able to remember everything she told you . I'm glad you like the new cart you got for working Oliver. Becca was a good sport !

[@grantwriter7777]

It's like breeds of working dogs - they want that teamwork with a human, and they're happy working.

[@kathytillotson4238]

The level of trust that Oliver has in JR is so beautiful.

[@tanyacambise6585]

What's nice is you can refer back to your video when you harness him at home.

[@EStark2000]

Such a wonderful learning curve for both horse and humans! Oliver’s temperament is so calm and trusting. Thank you for working with him.

[@susanbelida6981]

❤ Oliver is such a good boy. You treat him like the king he is. I love Oliver!!

[@G.G.999]

Oliver is such an amazing horse. I used drive horses and it was always an incredible experience ... totally different from riding, and it takes more concentration to stay safe, especially when a horse spooks. Can't believe people think you should get a horse and let it do nothing for thousands of dollars a year in expenses. It's like buying a car and never driving it. People forget that a short 100+ years ago, EVERYONE used horses as a daily driver, growing food, going to town and church, hauling wood, hauling coal, and the list goes on and on. People can be so silly 😂

[@dianalynntritch1970]

WHEN I WAS ONLY 10 (IN 1957), MY GRANDMAS TOLD ME HOW THEY USED TO HITCH UP A WAGON. ALL THE OLDER PEOPLE HAD THOSE STORIES TO TELL! IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL AND SIMPLISTIC TIME! WE COULD USE SOME OF THAT TIME NOW! 🕊️💖🕊️

[@delishme2]

My Mother went to school on her Shetland pony from the time she was about five. School was 3 or 4 miles from her home. She would spend half an hour catching him in the morning, he spent all day grazing, but coming home she told me she would have to tie down her hat snuggly and hold on because his little legs didn't stop until he was home again. Interesting to note, to this day, it's written into the educational handbook that schools have to supply fodder and water for horses that come to school, even though it's been more than half a century since anyone did that.❤ 🤣🤣

[@G.G.999]

@delishme2 What a great story. Can't beat those memories.

[@donnabarg3315]

Oliver is such a darling. We are so glad you rescued him. He has such a sweet temper. Horses need to work to be mentally and physically fit. He will love this.

[@Hollybank5]

Your daughter can woop you 😳🤣😎 That’s a dad’s life !!! Oliver was a real champ today - 4 hr drive, being fitted with new gear , 4 hr rude home … and he was so well behaved! What a sweetheart ❤

[@patranney1561]

Oliver really trusts your husband to protect and take care of him.

[@leannrichardson3155]

Every living thing needs a purpose and needs to feel useful, including Oliver. He’s only 2 years old (that’s like a teenager in human years). He is so eager to please you even in this video. I’m sure Oliver will thrive with the cart… he has already come so far I am excited see what is next.

[@overcatter7647]

The double-seat cart will allow you and Emery to take rides together, like date night!

[@nikkernacker1]

I love this idea!!!!! Take Oliver out for a ride, have a date picnic just JR and Emery. ❤

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

Yeah a little romance goes a long way. I bet Emori would make some treats for JR then.😂😂

[@pamb2734]

It’s amazing how well Oliver did during his fitting! You have an amazing boy on your hands!

[@pennyroberts8763]

For a 2year old who was so ill when you got him he's amazing you all have done a brilliant job with him It's a joy to see his & all your fox trotters journey Thank you so much for sharing your farm & life Penny UK

[@qjest]

I have never seen a young horse be so trusting in a new place getting new things done to him. The fitting of the harness astounded me, I never realized how much is to make it work. Many kudos to our ancestors for figuring it out. Many blessings to you for making the effort. Hugs to all!

[@rocroc]

"Working Horses With Jim" if you like that sort of thing (and I do). You'll like it none the less.

[@terrimartens3976]

Your son is such a nice young man. He looks just like Dad. Great video! Love Oliver!

[@gregoryschafer8657]

I learned a lot about working horses from a fellow You Tuber Jim Gordon on his channel Working Horses with Jim. His knowledge about all aspects of working horses from training to harnessing is extraordinary.

[@Wendy-bd9zu]

Yess and you can learn each time you watch with all the young colts and training, hè explains it really well time en time again. Also such a nice family ❤

[@pick10tennisjacquelinebogg23]

I agree with JR's views. Giving animals a purpose is a good thing. Of course, I was raised on a farm and my ancestors were farmers.The key is not to over use them. But discipline (meaning *teaching*) is good for his mind just like ours. JR seems to have his head on straight and balances discplibe with caring. 😊

[@tamaragonzalez2227]

I have found animals love learning new things. As happy as Oliver is there and so calm and trusting of you I think it is great you are going to teach him to pull. Now for the future you need to get a sleigh for when it is winter and go out sleighing out on the snow with bells ringing. Have fun teaching OLiver. Look forward to watching him learn.

[@mommapancakess]

That sounds wonderful! The bells and the snow with a lantern at night with a full moon! Life can be so beautiful!

[@1lonebird]

Oliver is such a sweetheart. He was so calm and didn’t seem to be bothered by all of the apparatus that was being put on him. Does anyone know how heavy all of that stuff is? Looking forward to seeing how well Oliver does when he finally get to pulling. Love seeing these videos and how far Oliver come. He was at deaths door and now he’s a healthy young boy. Keep up the good work.

[@suemckee1598]

The harness I had for my Arab weighed about 8 lbs. the harness here is probably about 25 lbs. + or -.

[@1lonebird]

@@suemckee1598 Wow. That seems like a lot of weight but I guess not for such a large horse. Thanks.

[@kfinnerty2148]

Oliver is a sweet, sound boy. He is so blessed to be rescued by a good, kind family. Please always be gentle with him.. and all your animals. Please don't overwork him. Even though he'll be big, strong.. it's a lot of weight.. harnesses, carts, big people.. and very hot weather can be exhausting. 🐴 I know you'll take good care of him. He's part of your family! God bless❤️

[@earthmonkeyenergies]

I think Oliver would do anything for JR. I love the way JR talks to Oliver. Thank you for sharing 💖

[@dezfacts8839]

I wholeheartedly share your viewpoint, JR. Having a sense of purpose is essential for everyone, and daily exercise is an important component. In this case, Oliver's work will serve as both a purpose and a workout. Imagine the sense of accomplishment Oliver will feel after a productive day.

[@deidrecompton2895]

You can start training at 2 years, but save the heavy hauling for 5 years old. Drafts mature later than light horses, and are still growing for another year after lights stop growing (drafts stop at 4 to 5 years, lights at 3 to 4 years). If you wait to put your draft horse into heavy work (under saddle or in harness) until he’s 5, you’ll have a sound, healthy horse for 30 years

[@wendyfowler1396]

'lights' keep growing. My Arab mare will be 6 this November - she 'grew' her wither over the last 6 months and the spine doesn't mature until about 6-7.. She is still bum high so another years growing I reckon. Generally speaking, the longer you leave a horse to grow up to 8 years or so, the stronger it will be physically and mentally..

[@sherrykeeney7376]

I honestly don't know? On horses? I know dogs specifically German Shepard type dogs & that's true of the imports they do mature later - that's all I can knowingly add to y'alls conversation - it's interesting enough to make me want to research that so I can learn more about horses thank you both 🙂👍

Oliver is so patient What a good boy. He gets more beautiful every day. Wow so much involved in harnessing. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jennikane6815]

WOW, I can't believe how complex those harnesses are! Im glad you guys understood because I was lost 😆😆

[@lorettarussell3235]

I was lost too. I would have had to practice several times with supervision till I got the hang of it.

[@adriennemurphy8528]

Boy, that's some process getting him all set up - and he was so calm throughout...you guys have worked wonders bringing him to this point❤

[@eileenshaw5960]

The adventure continues with the harness and the cart. Way to go entire family and Oliver. His patience and kind disposition were so very impressive for such a long day and so much quiet standing in the barn. I look forward to seeing JR and Oliver work with the cart and show off in the ring in next years draft horse show.😊

[@bonsaidouglas9180]

Yep , 7 months later here we still are 🤠 Go Oliver

[@carlaatkins2619]

Oliver ❤. Could he be any more patient and gentle? What a CHAMP!!! I agree, JR. Every being has a purpose, Oliver will be his best at what draft horses do. What an amazing adventure you have ahead of you. Never stop learning. Your friend (a retired teacher, still missing my classroom) from New Mexico, Carla 🎶💐💗

[@kjmav10135]

For that first collar, Oliver’s ears are like, “What the heck are you doing to me, Dad?” 😅

[@leelee-rm2fd]

And his eyes as well😳

[@terryt.1643]

Wow, so complicated! But soon it will be second nature. Oliver did great, but he would be bored with nothing to do. There’s a difference between forced labor and work, and we all need purpose…🥰💕❤️🐴👍👍

[@viktoriaannscotto6296]

great information. didn't realize there was this many pieces for the harness. oliver is such a goooood boy.

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Right, I don’t think we did either lol

[@sandimcnaught458]

I’m glad you are putting videos up again. I love them!😊😊😊❤

[@paulalejeune2322]

JR, you explained that so well. The draft horse and all working animals were bred that way exactly. And those animals love to work!

[@stardust949]

Oliver is going to be one LUCKY as well as handsome Working Clydesdale! I totally agree with what you had to say about animals knowing when they have purpose and a job. Some people do over work the drafts, use them til they drop---but no way is that going to be Oliver's future with you folks. Well Done, Oliver.

[@rocroc]

Regardless of what you learn in life, this channel just made clear one very important understanding, "Everything needs a purpose in life; people and animals included".

[@DG-yd4nh]

As long as he's well taken care of he'll be fine working. Anyone who has been watching this family knows that he's very well taken care of and loved❤

You bring back such great memories of my father and I with our horses. I'm an 83 years old woman.

[@virginiaspeciale8641]

Never realized how much there is to harness a horse. I would never remember all of that. Oliver is so patient. Doesn’t seem phased at all. He really trusts you.

[@brendabirkenbach8533]

As a retiree, it is much, much better to have something to do. Oliver is a young, now very healthy horse! You are not going to work him from sun up till sun down. Or work him to exhaustion, And as kind and loving you both feel about each other, I can't imagine Oliver or you not totally enjoying your time together! My dogs just love laying around the yard and enjoying fresh air. But there is nothing more that they love when I get them out for a long walk in the woods by a river, and they are panting and dirty, lol! But they still don't want to go home, want to keep going even when this old lady is ready to stop. Oliver and you are going to have some very special times together ❤️ 💙 ♥️

[@dawnp6460]

I love your family and they fact they are so involved too. Oliver looks 1000 times better than when you got him. I want to also comment on the purpose thing, we ALL have a purpose in life, why wouldnt animals? I think its awesome of you to want to give all your horses a better way in life. You guys are great and keep up the good work. Oh yeah Becca, good job on not dumping your dad!!!

[@btsxanime81]

Don't let people tell you what to do with Oliver. He is your horse and you know him best. :) Oliver will be well taken care of.

[@susangrewing8446]

Oliver giving you the side eye is so cute!

[@vegaslady3732]

Years ago I saw a documentary about the Budweiser Clyde's, and in it they had a bit about how the team travels. They also showed how involved and lengthy a process it is to get the team hitched & then unhitched for a pull. Very educational and more than a little amazing!! Oliver already knows how to do his part - JR just needs some practice/experience to do his. Hopefully Emory will have some treats for him as he becomes more proficient! 😊😊 Thanks again for a great vlog!

[@homesteadhorsemanship]

Treats for Jr? What a good idea!😏🤪😅

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

Not too many treats, just enough to keep him motivated, you don't want him to become overweight and get lazy.😂😂😂😂

[@marciemiller6250]

I am a new subscriber I found your channel April 20, 2024. I am watching Oliver’s playlist. I think that people that thought that you should retire him come from the side of ‘Oh poor Oliver. He had such a rough start in life”, because they don’t understand that Oliver doesn’t live in that place anymore. Although I guess that it is possible that he could be slightly behind where he should be. He is all about being all that he can be. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself and nobody else should either. He is a healthy happy Stallion that deserves to have what every other draft horse stallion has the right to do and be.

[@darlene2662]

He’s just getting started! He’ll have a great time with the buggy. He sure is a gentle fella and he obviously loves JR. 😊👍🏼

[@Groundedsquirrel]

The woman teaching you is a good teacher. Seems she didn’t want to be introduced or get credit here. So I hope she reads this. Good thing you will have the video as it’s a lot to keep track of. Fascinated by the storing of the harnesses up high to be lowered down by ropes due to weight.

That adjustment on the front of your cart is to offset your whiffletrees if you wanted to go 3 abreast or something like that.

That’s not how I do it” but it ended up with the same result lol Best of luck in your training

[@davidens8204]

I find the mentality of having a purpose in life goes for everybody dog horse or human etc..... if properly implemented .. when I was 14 I went on the dog sled racing scene with my father .. these dogs are so keen to pull you could hardly contain them .. I feel like it is going to be the same way with Oliver when he gets into the groove of it all .. plus you folks are helping the environment by not using fossil fuels for regular farm stuff

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

When draft horses are in a pulling competition they get so excited to pull that it is often difficult to hitch them to the sled, they "jump the gun" frequently because they think they are hitched up and can't wait to pull. Just watch a pulling competition and you'll see that they love to work!😊❤

[@rileyearl1]

There aren't enough treats in the world for this wonderful horse. I'm certain I wouldn't remember the harnessing process by the time I needed to remove everything. I'd have to use chain cutters and something to cut the leather. Oliver would get back to grazing and following Emory around. The mares would gossip about how incompetent I am. Colt would be somewhere laughing out loud.
