The first thing I thought when I saw these horses in the video was "it must be great to ride them without a saddle" and than they actually ride them without a saddle. They must be so comfy!

I absolutely love Draft Horses! My last horse was a Morgan-Draft cross. I always thought of her as a bulldozer-there was nothing that she wouldn't go over, around or through, so powerful but so gentle.

They’re like giant puppies! What a gorgeous and special breed. ❤

Enjoy learning about all these equines! My family usually had quarter horses. Have you ever tried barrel racing? My favorite thing about the Jutlands would be their demeanor. After the boys were playing and they drank together and scratched each other….my heart melted. Thanks for posting.

I know! So sweet.

Love the way these people keep their horses. Putting the boys together like that is the best thing they could do for them. They have great stables...secure & weatherproof.

They're pure muscles. And sweet and calm like most drafthorses.😊

Gorgeous horses! 🤩 And such sweet people. Sitting on the horse without a saddle must have been like on a moving couch! 😊

Haven't heard of this Breed. Love Draft Horse Videos. Thank you for taking us along on your Quest.

Draft horses 🤤

Hopefully the breed will be preserved. I enjoy learning about the breeds and the country. Thanks 👍👍.

Someday I will visit my paternal grandparents home country... Thanks for this. As a horse lover too these sweet drafts seem so kind... My grandparents were Danish and I never met them as my Dad was 2nd youngest of 11 so they passed when he was age 18 and 26. It is lovely to hear this nice man speak and the horse owners speak, imagining my grandfather who was from Mon...

I love the stout appearance of coloring and the thick blonde mains are nice ! They seem strong and kind. ❤

I have never heard of the Jutland Draft Horse of Denmark until now. Wow! Beautiful, strong, huge and mild mannered. Thank you so much for sharing. 🐎

There is a small farm that has 2 of these horses near where I live. These horses are always attracting attention. I don't know if they are the exact animal but these animals look alot like the horses that are being shown in this video. It is very unique to see them when they are in the field near the road. It's very hard not to take notice of them. I really like watching them ☺ 😍

These horses are awesome so beautiful and gentle I have always loved the draft breeds so steady and easy to work

What a beautiful horse! I have book that features many breeds of the world but your videos allow me to see these beautiful creatures in action. Thank you!

They’re beautiful. Love their flowing manes and the thick legs. They look comfy to ride.

My favorite thing : the sweet temperament, second: beautiful manes.

What lovely horses! Love their hair!

Loved watching you ride the beautiful Jutland horse bareback!!! I love how this family is all involved. What a wonderful video!!!!!!!!

Wow they are absolutely magnificent. Loved watching this video. ❤

Another lovely video, what beautiful creatures to share our lives, it made me feel really good watching you with this breed, Thank you from the U/K.

They seem to be predominantly palomino! So agile for such a docile horse! That mare's lower lip was so loose when you took her out of her stall, made me laugh! I really loved this educational video! Such a put together heavy cold blood! And, not so tall that you can't groom them! Thanks for sharing!

I have 2.Haflingers. they look even more like palominos but they are actually light chestnuts with flaxen manes and tails. I'm inclined to think these are as well. Beautiful horses, hope their numbers and enthusiasts increase.

So calm, kind and majestic! ❤

Lovely! I rode a lot in younger days (hunters/cross-country mostly) but zero experience with draft breeds. Most seem so pleasant. And this breed is completely unfamiliar. What a fun series! Thank you.

They are beautiful!! The color is my favorite!! My best friend and I used to ride her grandmother’s huge farm horses!! I’m 82 now so they were still used for farming up on the prairie!

Great episode! I’d never heard of this breed.

Wonderful people, beautiful horses. Such a calm breed . Fun to see big boys playing. Was that your first time plowing? Thanks, great video. 😊

Last year I bought a draft horse czech draft horse and I wish more people would buy them. Their temprament is calm and mine doesnt fear anything. He is 100% the most saftest horse I have ever seen and Im glad I am allowed to own him.

Love these videos!

They are absolutely beautiful. Oh my gosh, you are the luckiest girl in the world. What a wonderful thing that you’re doing.. going around, riding all these breeds… every equestrians dream. You are a Beautiful rider. You must be so thrilled to meet all these wonderful horse owners, and their amazing farms and horses, and get to know their history. Just such a beautiful thing.

My grandfather had a small herd of Jutland Drafts for field work. When I was a girl, my cousins and I rode them without saddle or bridle. They were such easygoing and kind horses.

I love the fact that they are so sweet with each other! And beautiful, of course!

Boy would I LOVE to have one of those. I have a Shire and a Jutland Draft would fit right in with her. How beautiful this breed is!!!

They are so beautiful

What a beautiful horse! And you can ride them without a saddle too. I never knew you could hook stirrups onto a riding pad! How clever! I often ride my Tennessee walker with just a riding pad but then my feet are just hanging - so I have definitely learned something from this.

This video was great and everything about the Danish breed you showed was BEAUTIFUL!! The family seemed exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable about their horses .. gorgeous feathering and tails and manes and coloring 💕❤️💕❤️🐴🐴❤️💕❤️💕❤️ Thank you so very much!

My favorite thing is everything. I love this horse and really want one. Not sure if they are willing to import one or more.

Here in the carribeans people use still horses, but only for the last work in the preparation of the field. But they're not drafthorses, and mostly abused, like food and water, working in the sun.😢

Do they dock their tails? I recently read about that practice with these horses. I ask just because I noticed their tails not wagging nor moving😢 Gosh darn it. They're such magnificent creatures!

Hey Alyssa, I really like your videos. You should try the Indian Marwadi and Khatiyawadi horse. They are fun too.

Wow, only 800 left of these breed. That is a shame because they are magnificent creatures.

Lovely horses. Now I need to visit Denmark and meet this breed. Picking nits... you said horse drawn plowing is unnecessary in a world where we can use our phone to order food delivery. Where do you think that food comes from? Don’t need draft horses not needed because farmers use fossil fuel power equipment to do the same job cheaper and faster. Working toward “net zero” may well require returning to draft horses.

my first thought was chunky. Just chunky

@brandon While I appreciate the sentiments, a little, renewable energy can power vehicles roughly 10 times more efficiently than fossil fuels, & there are already electric versions of every machine known to humans, including tractors (Quiet! No fumes! Vastly less pollution! Cheaper to own & run! ... See the videos!), combines, & everything else on a farm, on a construction site, in a mine, (See "World’s largest electric vehicle fully recharges itself”), on a logging road, on a city street (There are Chinese cities where nearly every one of every kind of municipal V is electric. NYC has 500 E-ambulances!...) With the savings the vehicles provide, plus extra income from wind turbines & solar panels, maybe farmers will buy & breed more rare animals & use them for better farming. I vote for American Cream Draft horses; (& Jutlands & Buckskin Gypsy Vanners-though I’m guessing you've spent a lot of time cleaning those feathers over the years. American Blue, & Buff Saddleback Pomeranian Geese (ever had a poached goose egg on home-grown whole wheat toast? OMG!); Angora rabbits; Khaki Campbell & Indian Runner ducks...

@@brandondarrin4947 A tiny & decreasing fraction. We should be transitioning to a society mostly based on free renewably-powered public transit including a state of the art high speed rail network hooked into brilliant systems of municipal & federal or interstate bus, rail & other transit. (This is happening in an increasing number of cities & at least 1 country.) It’s typically at least 80% more efficient than flying or private driving. But the lunatic far right wing in the US opposes transit & public everything; it wants traffic jams. Oh yeah..& individual & corporate warlords ruling every aspect of life on Earth. Koch, ALEC, et al have been fanatically fighting building of & improvements to local transit with massive funding from fossil fuel, ICV, & other corporations & far right dark money donors. So we’re mostly left with renewably-powered private EVs, only about 20-50 times more efficient than ICV's well-to-wheel fuel cycle, & far less polluting (all of which the insane people have also opposed, of course, delaying renewables by decades). Cobalt, which you’ve confused with lithium, is used to refine oil, it’s used in nuclear reactors & lots of other industrial & military applications. BYD & Tesla are leading the way by abandoning its use while oil, nuclear, & paint corporations, & the military, seem uninterested & are doing no such thing. There are huge & growing reserves of lithium & the ability to process it (using renewable energy) inside the US & its allies. A significant part of the lithium is harmlessly extractable as a by-product of geothermal energy-in the Salton Sea alone, 600,000 tons a year--all of US or 40% of world demand. There are also other substances even cheaper & more ecological than current batteries that are either in production now (iron-air, CATL’s new Shenxing LFP battery, eg) or very close to it (sodium, solid state) that will either reduce the amount of lithium needed (Shenxing) or replace it completely. But even without that, renewable energy means a saving of 60% of primary energy (direct use of fuel in transport, buildings, & industry that’s most of most countries’ energy) & a dramatic, even revolutionary reduction in mining. 94% of mining in the world is fossil fuels. As fuels are replaced with efficiency, wiser lives & clean safe fast cheap reliable resilient renewable energy, that all ends, along with 40% of global shipping, 1/2 of rail, energy-intensive oil refining & the huge subsidies & externalities of fossil fuels (together, $13 trillion/yr). “Clean energy means less mining” Climate Denial Crock of the Week, 2022/11/17 “A Fossil Fuel Economy Requires 535x More Mining Than a Clean Energy Economy” Michael Thomas, Distilled, March 29, 2023 "Lithium Deposit In Extinct Nevada Volcano Could Be Largest In The World" Cleantechnica 2023/09/10 "Seeing Wetiko: on Capitalism, Mind Viruses, and Antidotes for a World in Transition” Alnoor Ladha, Martin Kirk. There are 30 million slaves in the world now, because capitalism demands it, because the complex psychological condition best called Wetiko disease that causes capitalism is addicted to domination & sadism. Slaves make your clothes, grow your food, produce your electronics. Want to stop child slavery? End capitalism, because personal lifestyle change is orders of magnitude of orders of magnitude too small to fix it, just like it is with climate catastrophe. Probably the only way to end either problem is to recognize that Wetiko is the cause of all our problems, & agree to & push for the needed treatment of it in society while organizing a peaceful revolution to remove virtually all of the current rulers from power & wealth (in our society, interchangeable commodities).
