It was amazing to watch him hook them up together, with just a word here and there and they moved exactly how he wanted them to.
What a wonderful video.........good to see them actually working ❤❤❤
Thankyou so much for coming to Marlie Stud. It was a pleasure having you here.
So nice to see a draft horse whose tail hasn't been butchered.
I think tail docking is banned in Europe, too.
Agreed! Leave the tails alone!
WOW, what a lovely breed, the partnership that they are able to form with each horse is amazing. The versatility, not just a horse for all seasons but a horse for all reasons. Thank you.
I love watching an expert working with heavy horses. You can see just how he loves them. LOL the way they totally ignore her and “ jump to it” the moment he says !
It's so interesting that he is so chill having only been ridden once! That girl chose her horse so well. A true gentle giant.
Got tears in my eyes toward the end. What a lovely tradition to carry forward. What a gentle breed.
"Ahhhh...there was a person on me!" LOL! I don't think I've ever seen horses pulling 3x3. Beautiful!
That hoof sound while cantering!!! Gorgeous draft horses ❤
So great to see our Aussie horses as so many in other counties don’t know we have our own breeds
For a horse that was backed literally like the day before you got there he was absolutely fantastic! what a gentle. calm gorgeous breed!
That was so much fun to watch! I love this breed and the Marlie Stud carrying on the tradition. It was wonderful seeing the family photos from the past. Keep up the good work!
Great video! Loved meeting this breed!
One of the best moments in the series: six huge horses in the hitch, Alyssa trying to give them commands, and they're standing solid as rocks, looking at each other as if to say, "Ya hear that, mate? Wot's she goin' on about? We're meant to be workin' heah." Wonderful!
Exactly lol I literally imagined they were heads together sayin just that 😜
As a young soldier in Australia my Corporal was an old soldier who was from South Australia who said when he was on a property a man was measured by his ability with a team of SIXTEEN horses...
I´m totally flashed by the natural and gentle way these horses are handled and worked with. There´s so much other "equestrians" could learn just by watching this video. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Men will come and go and let you down and hurt you. But not Will. Will always loves you, he always does his best. Will always cares and has your back. Will stays with you through the good times and the bad. Will is the real hero.
omg yess another Australian horse breed!!! Will looks so beautiful and the gaits looked so amazing! cant wait for the next horse breed
If I could live my life over again, I think I’d like to do it exactly like this family is doing it. I’m just an all of the farm the horses, the children, the work ethic, the authenticity , and the joy of it all.
The Australian Whaler is our War Horse
Oh goodness, I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes! I've gotten on large draft horses who have only pulled and have never been ridden. To see how sweet this guy was and how responsive to the turns and different gates, I'd have wanted to take him home for sure ❤
That's a happy family of horses and people. You guys are opening up people's eyes to a amazing world of animals that exist all around them. Well done and much luck with the next breeds you visit and ride. Thank you.
😊 it will be great to see more of the videos. you guys are true hero's in my book keep up the great work.
Once again thx so much for all your efforts to introduce us to some of these amazing horses 🐴 ❤🇦🇺❤
In answer to your question: Yes, I have met some Aussie Drafts. Certainly not the show ponies of the draft breeds, but can't be faulted for what they were bred for; tough enough to cover mile upon mile of rough country with a great work ethic and disposition. They may not be oil paintings, but they get the job done with a minimum of fuss.
SO AWESOME to watch u drive & work the draft horses! They're just BIG & BEAUTIFUL! Thanx for sharing!
Thanks for joining me on the adventure!
Hi was working on a station in Queensland an they used a draft type horse to go in among young horses that were being broke . Was in 1970 . Am Canadian .couldn't get work on Canadian Ranch
So went to Australia
I love riding these guys. Such gentle giants.
What a great horses
I did a dressage test on an Australian draught horse. We came 3rd. Her name was Dove. Such a good girl
Goedzo, Mary... And your Draught Horse!
🐎👍
This was great to watch. Thank you all.
Such sweet horses, and you probably couldn't have found a better place to represent them ^^
Tolles Video!
Beeindruckende Rasse.
Sehr schöne Pferde 🐎❤💯!
Thank you for sharing 💐.
Thank you for watching Birgit, so glad you enjoyed it!
Ja, sehr schoen und erinnert mich an meine Kindheit in Koeln am Rhein und das Pferd Pascha vom Kohlenhaendler dass den mit Bricketts geladenen Anhaenger zog um die Bricketts zu liefern.
Another beautiful breed and amazing adventure! Can't wait for the next one. ❤️🐴
I’m so glad I found this page ❤️
I am enjoying this section.
Your joy in experiencing this horse and how much you love them as a species is obvious and contagious. 💜🇺🇸
14:50 He really relaxed under your hand. Nicely done 😊
Gorgeous horses !¡!! Thanks for sharing!!!
That was so cute when she told the horses to get up get up and they just stood there. It’s like they start you’re not my boss.
What a job(?) you have!!! This would be my DREAM, to travel the world and ride all of these magnificent horses. HEAVEN ❤ I'm especially in love with the larger breeds like this one. Their calm, calm, calm demeanors are so endearing, and the way they want to do for you says so much about them (and their wonderful care). Love love love!! YOU'RE SO LUCKY!!
Very interesting breed from down under. Thank you for sharing.🐴🐴🐴🐴
OMG Beauties love them and thanks for the new video i have been waiting for a while.
Before seeing the video, i sended a message to my australian friend in LA, the🐨 koala lady lisa, to see your video.😘
What special, gorgeous animals.
He's amazing and what a beautiful draft
They are sooo SMART and so friendly. Awesome to see them working. ❤
Hey Alyssa(spelling?), I’m curious to know if you have a favorite horse breed? Also, I really admire your skill at riding and handling the horses. Even more, I really admire the way you bond with the horses, dogs, cats, and goats by showing them love. I have enjoyed watching each and every video. I hope that there remains at least another 77 breeds for you to ride.
Those horses are adorable! They knew it wasn't Dad giving the directions. "Uh, n-o. Wrong person. We're not moving...!"😂
😆
This channe brings so much peace
They all understood the assignment. What a beautiful moment, every time to see them listening and reacting individually! :O
My favorite video so far. Very special ❤❤❤
Love this you working the Land with the horses ❤
Yes…I have 2 of them they are Percheron, Suffolk Punch x Australian Draft and look exactly like the ones in this vlog ❤….I too are in Australia
Like riding a rocking horse, very comfortable and dependable, most you could ask for in a good horse!
Love this channel thank you!!
Hay thats my uncle’s farm 😊 I miss my uncle sid
I remember he showed me how loud he could whistle
What a lovely surprise to learn of this magnificent breed with such a fascinating backstory. More Gentle Giants that are so quiet hard working and smart.
Easily trainable because their jobs are so strongly in their blood minds and breeding. Would be soo easy to fall in love but no suitcase large enough to get them home lol!
Thank you so much for sharing...
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome, loved it
Alyssa, this was one of your most entertaining videos ever! And as always, educational. So good to learn of all the innovative ways the majestic horse has benefited humans' development.
Lots of laffing in this one, Australia of course! And standing beside those beauties, your "Godiva" hair was a good match for theirs.
I'm always envious to see you riding the various breeds, this looked like sitting on a comfy chesterfield.
Great work, carry on!
beautiful. thank you.
at last, you made it to my back yard. good on ya... luv your channel keep it up...best of the new year for you and yours LOVE from Australia
great video indeed .beautiful horses
This is just so cool ❤!
I love what you are doing, a fantastic channel and lovely to see someone so committed to exposing the breeds of horses around the world; their contribution to human society is inspiring and underestimated!
Well done!
Beautiful !
What a great breed! So calm and hard working. I alway love the look of a draft horse gait. Hope he rode as well as he looked.
Great review
To ride every horse breed, you've set yourself a big challenge, good luck. As a 70+ year old I'd be just happy to be able to ride again, but most feel it unsafe for me.
I've been watching your videos of riding horses around the world 🌎 and I enjoyed all of them ❤ 😄
Thank you! So glad to hear you are enjoying the videos!
They are beautiful but i prefer the belgian drafthorses, because they have so more power, not because i'm from belgium. You did so well on the organic tractor for your first time.👍
Finally watched this, Johannes... Thanks!
Lisa 🇦🇺🐨💝

What an amazing breed!❤
That’s a great day magic time
Yes a few Australian draught horses ice met in megalong valley in the blue mountains and at events. Their so quiet and dosile, hard working and calm gentle giants. Amazing breed.
Lovely horses!
I'm wondering how similar the equipment at Marlie is to what we'd see on a traditional Amish farm here in the US?
Lovely breed! Thanks for another wonderful video!
The Aussie harness used in teams like this is fairly different from the typical Amish or North American harness. Winkers, collars and hames are both comparable, but the rest of Aussie team harness is minimal.
Eg here Aleks uses no backbands, and chain traces, with pullleyblock eveners. The back row of horses don't need reins with this system.
Amish systems tend to have a lot more harness on every horse, including back pads, girths, back straps and breeching, plus leather or webbing traces.
@@ianstewart-koster9982I thought the question was about the farm equipment/machinery rather than the harness. I would expect that to be pretty similar, but even that might vary because of differences in the sort of ground they might be working.
Draught Horses are very strong animals.
Will is such a big cute gentleman! Very cool breed!
They are beautiful
I’m in Tassie and am hoping to source some parts to get my disc plow up and running to work my horses on the front paddock ❤❤
Bahot badhiya horse h aap k 🐎👈🎥 🇮🇳💖
The lack of harness is very interesting. Im intrigued
I have not met one but would like too now. lol
I’ve said it before but I have to say it again. You have the most beautiful smile 😃 😊
Alyssa, great video. You were working on that koala( australian) farm. That was amazing. I thought that draught horse was draft horse. How it has to be written? 😘🤔
✝️😇🔯🕊️🐑🧄🤖🐼🌍🌎🌏🔭🎇🤍🎀❤️Holy Psalm 91 Jesus and KathrynMiller say Thankyou for sharing ✝️🤍✝️🎀USA Amish❤️What a Lovely Family I am Glad they have wonderful Horses✝️🦅🇺🇸🍀🍀🍀
He is a beaut
Have you met the akhal-teke yet?
I learned how to harness and drive a team of Percheron myself! While your in the land down under, why don't pay a visit to Paul Hogan and his wife Linda Kozlowski? Maybe they will give you autograph photo.
Are they available here in the usa😊
Me@6'4": got anything bigger, mate? 😉
Never knew….live in aus. The other breeds around.
She forgot to say "Roight o," before saying "Git up."
😆
the draft breeds are like riding a arm chair
At the end of the day they're all they is is just big mules
Welcome too Australia oi oi oi ;) .
Definitely easier to just turn over the tractor. Lovely horses though.
I haven't met an Australian Draught horse, no. and I'm Australian!
God they're beautiful- Makes me want one oml
2 breeds I want now- Icelandic, and Australian Draught horse
Alyssa, are you british? Because you wrote draught horse, what is used in england, and draft horse, used in US, belgium, netherlands...
Or maybe is it draught horse also in australia?
I can't find your nationality in youtube, neighter on instagram.🤔
In Australia, it's spelled Draught horse- not the USA draft way!
@@ianstewart-koster9982 yep, like in british english. Thanks
The US is the odd one here. In all other English speaking countries it's spelled draught.
The Netherlands and Belgium aren't English speaking countries, so it's neither draft nor draught, but "trekpaard".
@@picobello99 als ze nederlands spreken ja, maar wanneer wij trekpaard vertalen zeggen we draft horse. But it would be nice to know why that diference
@@joannesmartens9442 Nee, jij schrijft draft horse. Het maakt niet uit of je de Britse of Amerikaanse spelling gebruikt, beide zijn correct. Zelf gebruikt ik meestal de Britse spelling (draught dus) omdat dat is wat ik op school geleerd heb.
De Amerikanen hebben hun spelling vereenvoudigd. Dit zie je bij meer woorden: hiccup ipv hiccough, harbor ipv harbour, etc. Zoals gezegd is de VS het enige land dat officieel de Amerikaanse spelling gebruikt. Zelfs Canada volgt de Britse spelling (wat eigenlijk een rare term is, gezien het gewoon de oorspronkelijke spelling is die iedereen behalve de Amerikanen gebruikt).
He left the halter on with bridal🤦♀️
Obviously with the British settling in Australia, there would have been no Horses there originally, Britain would have imported the Clydesdale , Shire, and Suffolk Punch Horses and maybe the Belgian Horse imported so the Australian Draught is a mixture or cross breeding of all of these , so this makes them a Hy-breed ,not really an original breed
Eventually, the hybrids breed true & they become their own breed. Think of all the different dog breeds!
Australia is hot af, I hope you were keeping the horses well-being in mind during filming.
