Buying a Horse from the Amish

Support our efforts by sourcing your Wood-Fired, Organic, Pure, Vermont Maple Syrup from https://ruggedridgeforest.com/ ! While growing our team of standardbred/percherons, we've returned to Ohio to buy a second horse from our Amish friend we met at the last auction. We use these horses to log in order to produce our wood-fired, organic, pure Vermont maple syrup. This video is a lot of voice over and B-roll. While I asked Andy's permission to film, I did not want to stick a camera in his face or record every moment of our interactions together. Instead I've recounted the tale of our experiences over videos of us collecting the horse, Hugo, that I ultimately purchased. This video also includes a section demonstrating our friend Andy haltering this 2 year old for the first time and breaking him to lead. He puts on an impressive display of Amish horsemanship! 00:00 - Intro 00:29 - Backstory 02:03 - First Look at Our Gelding 02:53 - Sorting Them Out 06:00 - Halter Breaking 13:44 - Loading Him Up 15:40 - Welcome to Rugged Ridge! 17:25 - Shameless Self Promotion of our Wood-Fired, Organic, Pure Vermont Maple Syrup Thanks so much for watching!
