Bad experience with Amish horses... - The Horse Forum
2011年5月19日 · Just because the Amish do not treat their horses like huge expensive pets like we do does not mean they (general they, because we all know there are bad people in every sector) are abusive asshats. Their horses are a necessary tool. It behooves them to take care of them I agree totally The amish around here treat there horses ok.
Buying draft from Amish - The Horse Forum
2009年2月6日 · The Amish can be very shroud horse traders. buying they always try to get the cheapest price, selling they want top dollar. but like someone else said, if it is something they don't really want you can talk them down. The amish I worked with had a very good team of Haflingers. I went to pick up the workers one morning and

2023年4月2日 · Again, Amish are human. There are good and bad. It’s not fair to paint them all with the same brush. I definitely think different communities and regions vary vastly in the way they treat their animals. The 3 Amish horses I have now have not been my only Amish horses….and I wouldn’t hesitate to get an Amish horse in the future.

2024年1月29日 · I currently have 3 ex Amish horses….a Percheron mare, a Haflinger gelding and my standardbred gelding (who is off the track, raced in Canada, sold to Amish, sold to Mennonites and gifted to me in 2016). Anyway…getting way off track! The Amish and their horses are a subject close to my heart.

2016年8月8日 · I've always been curious about Amish horses. I was told the Amish aren't supposed to use flashy horses, and it does seem like their buggy horses are darker, solid colors. But I've definitely seen flashy ex-Amish horses. They appear to have a lot of Friesians and Haflingers, and I've also seen some Friesian/Standardbred crosses and some heavy ...

2020年11月13日 · I really think it depends on the individual. My horse's trainer is Amish. Horses are his livelihood. He usually has a barn full of training horses, and he also buys horses to train and sell at auction. I believe he breeds both registered and unregistered stock. He doesn't pamper his horses like I do, but their health is important to him.

2009年11月29日 · The experiance levels of the horses did range from very little training to dream horses. The horses from the Amish groups (Yoders and Hershbergers) were for the most part dream horses, they would do anything under the sun for the riders/drivers and were calm among the big crowds and in the stables and anyone could walk up to them and check them ...

2011年5月9日 · PK, I think you have a wonderful point here. None of the Amish folks that I know would ever dream of mistreating their horses; however, they don't take the time to pet and scratch them like most of us do either. The horses are caught, harnessed, and put to work. After work, they are unharnessed and either put back into a stall or their paddock.

2009年10月7日 · As I mentioned in a few other posts, Noah was predominantely an Amish horse before becoming a trail horse at a vacation resort in the Poconos. I know the basic ideas of how the Amish raise, train and keep their horses, but I'm looking for any detailed info that anyone has. How are their horses kept (turn out, box stalls, types of footing)?
Sending horses to the Amish to be trained how to drive?
2014年3月20日 · An Amish community has grown up around my parents. My father is good friends with them and they have been very nice and helpful to him as he is about 90. He is not a horseman now but grew up with horses. He is not a fan of Amish horsemanship. The thing to remember is that a horse to the Amish is like a tractor or truck to the rest of us.
