The horses and Jim sure did work hard with the logging as did the other horses a full day by the look of it. I love your time at Dapnet thank you for filming it 😁😊 Brenda your as star with that camera Thank you both.
PG here, Brenda that was a very nice video in the woods. I am partial to seeing Jim with Bill and Ken logging! Very enjoyable video. Jim training a horse he doesn't know and teaching people is great!
JIm sometimes says he doesn't like to talk. From an outsider looking in, I think your TH-cam channel has really improved his oratory skills. I can't imagine that he could have done any better on this video. He is direct, open, encourages audience participation and is careful to not make a novice feel that their question isn't important. I think he's much better at public speaking than he gives himself credit for.
Brenda, wonderful video! What are you thinking of naming your new horse? Ken looked like he was limping a little.Jim did a great job in the woods and teaching.
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped.
A testament to Jim’s oneness with his horses in the trust Bill shows as he continues to quietly eat while Jim hammers down the shoeing nails on his hoof. 💛
Isn’t it great to know that you can go to event like this. And find others who are willing to help others in getting you a new horseshoe. So good to see such teamwork among all the teams.
Interesting! I'll never work a horse in this way, but I'm learning so many things. On silly thing I never noticed is that when they graze, they keep taking steps!! I love this!!
The filly did do well backing, that was probably her first time backing with a bit and bridle (I don't recall doing that before) She is only 2 and a half, I haven't done much at all with her other than daily handling and a handful of ground driving sessions. I need to extend those tugs so she doesn't hit her heels so much, the harness was built for Haflingers with shorter legs :)
A perfect day for watching the different teams logging in the woods! I enjoyed Jim's demonstration of training methods and seeing him work with a horse that we're not familiar with. Good video and editing work, Brenda. I'm sure DAPNET appreciates your contribution as well. ❤
What a nice surprise to find a video from you folks today! Thanks for all the filming - fascinating stuff. Although I thoughts the logs they were cutting in the woods were wimpy compared to the big pine at Paul Smith’s! :-) Glad you found Bill a shoe!
Starting at 1:54 into the video, when you introduce Jim with Ken & Bill, it looks like Bill was having a little "pep-talk" with Ken, telling him "We got this!"😂
Jim, Brenda, Great video. Bill& Ken did great today! they pulled a lot of weight today great job, boys! Thanks Brenda, great job on the video... Jim, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Very interesting. The work sessions are extremely interesting and I’m sure helpful to the attendees. It was fun seeing the various teams in the woods. That crew of teams would be able to do some productive logging. My favorite is the beautiful white horse. The lady teamster definitely gets a good workout. Thanks for the video. Anxious for episode three.
Thank You, to each and every one of you that made this video series a reality. I know there are many involved, even behind the scenes as well, Thank You Very Much. Love It.
what a great video and Jim is right in his elements teaching and showing how to train a colt. Ken and Bill doing what they do best and that is working and logging. Thank you Brenda for such great videos. JIm may not like talking, but so many can learn from him and what a great teacher.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I love anything to do with horses. Jim's a natural at making things interesting and easily understood. Brenda it was a bit of a trek for you keeping up with moving from place to place for best viewing advantage. 😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this video it was so interesting Jim certainly knows all there is to know about working horses. It nice to see so many people interested in the working horse. God bless 😊
I was thinking wow ...over an hour of video ..thinking it was too long....but...it was a great video and time flew past..glad I watched the whole video ..was very well done and very interesting..great job guys
Learned a lot in this video. Jim going through his process quickly with the grey mare was interesting. Didn’t know jockey sticks were a thing, but I do now; found some old forum posts to learn more.
Well wow great firming. Brenda thank you for taking the time to film this. Very interesting and watching the horses in the forest was fun to watch. We all agree here who has the experience and has the knowledge . The very pretty mare you folks bought at the sale is very pretty. Yes just a baby. Sooo glad you don't start using the horses til they are 4 yrs old.
It sounds incredible, but in over sixty years it was only three times that I didn't find a horseshoe that my horses lost. Sometimes I would look for hours, sometimes only a few minutes, but it was always my ambition to retrieve it, no matter what. For the past thirty years, since my son was shoeing my horses, he told me emphatically that spending all that time on finding a shoe was unnecessary, since he could easily make a new one, but that was beside the point, I WANTED to find it. Well, I was born in Bavaria and lived there for 44 years, and we are known to be stubborn.
Vielleicht macht es Jim zu Hause auch so, aber bei dieser Veranstaltung hat er keine Zeit zu suchen und er muß hier im Wald noch auf die anderen Teams und Zuschauer achten und es ist alles unbekanntes Gelände, also wird er ständig andere Wege laufen. Heutzutage werden die Hufeisen anscheinend nur angenagelt. Früher hat der Hufschmied das heiße Eisen in den Huf gebrannt. Ich könnte mir vorstellen, daß es früher einen besseren Anschluss an den Pferdehuf hatte, wie ein individueller Maßschuh beim Menschen. Die Zigeuner, das ehemalige fahrende Volk, in Rumänien nageln den Pferden alles mögliche unter die Hufe und das auch noch völlig falsch. Sie benutzen junge Pferde, die sich nicht wehren können , lassen sie leiden und verschleißen sie bis zum Tod. (Kannst du bei Kanal "Hufschmiede ohne Grenzen" sehen) Die Zeiten ändern sich und das alte Wissen und alte Werte verschwinden immer mehr. Nur noch wenige können alte Werte und altes Wissen vermitteln. Die Hersellung eines Hufeisens durch einen Schmied hat viel Muskelarbeit gekostet und es war ein wertvoller Maßschuh. Ich habe vor über 25 Jahren bei einem Schmied eine Sammlung "orthopädischer" Hufeisen zur Korrektur gesehen. Der Schmied ist längst gestorben. Er konnte das Wissen seinem Enkel, der auch Schmied (aber mehr im industriellen Bereich) leider nicht mehr vermitteln. Der Schmied war gleichzeitig auch Pferdezüchter und Preisrichter bei Fahrwettbewerben. Auch dieses Wissen konnte nicht mehr weitergegeben werden. Das ist politisch gewollt so, denn mit altem Wissen, alten Techniken können die Menschen frei und unabhängig sein. Es ist sogar besser für die Umwelt. Aber das begreifen nicht mal alle Bauern in DE. Wachse oder weiche. Sie wollen wachsen und verlieren ihr wertvolles Land, wenn sie die Kredite nicht mehr abzahlen können, trotzdem sie bis zum umfallen gearbeitet haben. Pferde zu haben ist heutzutage fast nur noch ein Freizeit Hobby von Reichen ohne Pferdeverstand und Herzblut, zum angeben, als Kapitalanlage. Du hast das Wissen noch, aber was ist mit deinem Sohn, deinen Enkeln? Arbeiten sie noch täglich mit Pferden, ohne größere , moderne Maschinen? Mein Opa mußte seine Pferde aus gesundheitlichen Gründen mit 63 Jahren abgeben, da war ich 3 Jahre. Ich weiß nicht viel über Pferde, nicht genügend.... Ich hoffe einfach, daß das Wissen erhalten werden kann und sich mehr junge Leute dafür engagieren. Weißt du was junge Leute in DE mit den Bienen machen? Sie setzen sie in der Stadt aufs Dach und ernten den Honig (von Balkonpflanzen und den letzten Straßenbäumen) und lassen die Bienen dann im Winter verhungern. Im Frühjahr kaufen sie sich neue. Woke, studierte wohlstandsverwahrloste , junge Menschen. Honig zu essen ist gesund und Bienen im Sommer auf dem Dach zu halten ist schick. Werte, Verantwortung, Arbeit, Zuchtwissen weitergeben .....??? Und was mit diesen Schlachtpferden/ auf den Transporten in /nach Kanada passiert, einfach nur grausam. So viele Sadisten arbeiten mit Tieren, ohne Kontrolle. So viel unnützes Leid. Was nützt denn eine angekündigte Kontrolle aller paar Jahre, aber alles politisch korrekt. Was machst du mit deinen alten oder kranken Pferden?
Just like a car collector see a great beauty and can’t resist! What a way to illustrate the class you are to teach,actually have a new horse to train. I’m so glad you didn’t buy the horse you two went to see the other day (I may not have my videos in the right order?)this horse is beautiful!!!
Jim looks like you bout your self a great new member nice horse and Brenda great filming and good tecknic and i learn much about andling a new horse thanks
I hated Bill lost a shoe but thankfully someone had an extra shoe which kept Bill able to work! (Note to self...wouldn't hurt to keep an extra shoe in hauler in case it's ever needed when away from home.) Bill and Ken were looking good in their logging demonstration!! And I was happy they asked Jim to demonstrate how to start training lessons on a new draft to work!! Couldn't have had a better teacher than Jim!👍 Great videoing Brenda!!!
I have to tell Jim that Ken made me laugh as he pulled at the leaves to grab a quick snack but Bill did not get any 😢... Jim for a person who doesn't talk much I truly enjoyed listening to you talk about the harness and training. I don't have a horse but I truly love them. Whhen in girl scouts at summer camp learned how to put a harness on the horse and made sure the bit was in the mouth correctly. I love God's big creatures 🐎.. God bless you Jim and Brenda..
The wonderful sounds of the horses mixed with old equipment sounds and the terrible cacophony of chain saws. There should have been the sound of hatchets hitting the tree trunks! That is a beautiful woods.
First those are beautiful woods Brenda. I agree with you. I am interested to know what Jim thought of them and the terrain? Now what , Jim bought another horse??? I am not sure how that will go over when he gets home.
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped. Sorry it wasn't clear! Brenda
Seriously? You bought that lil blue filly? What a great demo for how to begin with a new horse, the real deal for sure. Bill and Ken did some great work out there, but I sense had Jim felled the one that got hung up, it might not have got hung up. Great demo how to get it out with no trouble. You got a place you want logged? Just run some field days!! Wonderful, wonderful video Brenda. Greetings from Australia.
Hi Louise, no I didn't buy that filly, for the demonstration, I am just explaining what to do when buying a new horse. Brenda missed the beginning of the demonstration.
Interesting event ….love that huge brick building with black metal roof! Wish you walked around that inside and out showing us!!! What is the history behind that huge barn like building??
Good to see the lad riding in empty. I sometimes get lazy and ride if its a long way in and not using the cart. As I approach 50 I'm not as spry to nip up on as I used to be though. I ride "sidesaddle" rather than astride so I can hop off quick if I need to. I wish the bush around here was that nice and open. Around here it is all thick brush and deadfalls and you need to cut a trail in almost every tree with brush whipping you in the face. Terrible buckthorn everywhere.
It is interesting to just watch the guys work. I think I miss the pull by pull commentary that Brenda provides during the horse pulls. Also the grey mare I gathered was purchased by the Gordons?
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped....sorry it wasn't clear....Brenda
Took a 12 year old gelding to amish never had harness on him they had him hitched and driving before we where out of the yard when I was young would have them working the first day
Sounds like the young lady's mare is being pushy and needs to learn some respect. Making her back up might be an easy way to get her to give respect. If that isn't the case, if she is afraid of being bridled, I've overcome that in a really terrified pony in one lesson simply by putting honey on the bit so she wanted it in her mouth, and then putting the bridle on gently while she was distracted with the honey. The pony had been fought to the ground by six men and pinned down to put a bridle on her, and she fought so hard they failed. A little honey on the bit got it on in a matter of seconds, and the owner reported to me that she never gave him trouble again. I have always put my hand on the back of the horse's ear when bridling as well, so that the crown of the bridle slides down my hand instead of down their ear. That can really help with a bridle shy horse as well. I have dealt with a lot of rejects from the stockyards over the years, and many came with a lot of baggage and problems. Little tricks like that can really make a difference. As far as runaways, sometimes they do really hurt themselves. A friend's horse broke her leg on a runaway, and had to be put down. If you think you don't have time to train a colt properly, look at it as an investment. Train that colt properly, and you may have up to three decades of labor out of that horse, where most days are a joy to work with them. I trained my first little filly when I was 18. I got to enjoy her until she was 5, and then I had to sell her. She stayed with that same owner 13 years, and then she came back to me, and I got to enjoy her until just shy of her 35 birthday. The child born to me late in life got to learn to ride on that filly I trained when I was 18. That was more than three decades of payoff for the months I put in when she was young. She worked nearly every day of her life. She did horse and carriage weddings in heavy Baltimore traffic. She drove daily on trails in Aiken, SC for 13 years. She served as a lesson pony and taught kids to ride and jump. At the end of her life, she helped to break other horses to drive, taught a friend to drive, and taught my child to ride.
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped....sorry it wasn't clear..Brenda
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Thank you for clarifying Brenda! At around 30:30 Jim said: This is a horse I bought this morning. So I got really excited there for a moment :-) Not sure why though, you still have Duke and Earl to get ready as well. Anyways, love watching your videos so thanks again!
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped...sorry it wasn't clear! Brenda

Ok, that is what I thought, but comments had me wondering , ah ha, very nice horse though, seems smart. (Moves away from danger, safety minded smart horse.)
Jim is a natural teacher.
Thanks Brenda for videography.
Jim is amazing , he really knows his horses , his talent is remarkable , thank you , great video Brenda, have fun , stay safe !
Brenda is good to listen to and she is so tender with the horses. I bet they love her.
I think Bill and Ken , with Jims guidance, pulled more weight than the other teams . Ken took his opportunity to get some leaves ! A true logger !
The horses and Jim sure did work hard with the logging as did the other horses a full day by the look of it. I love your time at Dapnet thank you for filming it 😁😊 Brenda your as star with that camera Thank you both.
Those boys are so patient with Jim
They're amaxing
And good to see them on today's video. Love to watch them
PG here, Brenda that was a very nice video in the woods. I am partial to seeing Jim with Bill and Ken logging! Very enjoyable video. Jim training a horse he doesn't know and teaching people is great!
Master Teamster !!
Ken and Bill work so beautifully in the woods.
Looked like Ken needed a snack as he was backing up lol
JIm sometimes says he doesn't like to talk. From an outsider looking in, I think your TH-cam channel has really improved his oratory skills. I can't imagine that he could have done any better on this video. He is direct, open, encourages audience participation and is careful to not make a novice feel that their question isn't important. I think he's much better at public speaking than he gives himself credit for.
Thanks for all your hard work filming Brenda, especially in the woods.
Jim & Don make great team teachers. They obviously respect each other’s knowledge and abilities. Awesome video.
she is beatiful and its all new, she is doing good.
It’s quite a challenge! Bill & Ken look great!
Nice one Brenda and Jim, Ken and Bill were just GREAT !
Loved all the horse especially Bill and Ken ❤
Brenda, wonderful video! What are you thinking of naming your new horse? Ken looked like he was limping a little.Jim did a great job in the woods and teaching.

Great class Jim!!!
Bravo Jim!
Another horse, Jim and Brenda thank you for all your hard filming and working with horses
Love that horse you did the demonstration with, she's a beautiful filly! She also has a lot of potential.
Isn’t it great to know that you can go to event like this. And find others who are willing to help others in getting you a new horseshoe. So good to see such teamwork among all the teams.
Interesting! I'll never work a horse in this way, but I'm learning so many things. On silly thing I never noticed is that when they graze, they keep taking steps!! I love this!!

Good class of interested students and a very nice green mare. Thank you for sharing.🐴
Thanks for your videos it is nice to be able to see everything we miss their is so much to see in only a weekend 😁
God Bless Jim.... He shows the same patience that he has with horses as He does with Old People.
😎🇺🇲🇲🇽🇵🇷 Experience experience, yes. Learn from people who have done it..
what a great video and Jim is right in his elements teaching and showing how to train a colt. Ken and Bill doing what they do best and that is working and logging. Thank you Brenda for such great videos. JIm may not like talking, but so many can learn from him and what a great teacher.

Great class, Jim. Your knowledge and experience is shining through
Excellent content. 😊
The tutorials was very informative.
Also, I loved watching the logging activities.
Jim and Brenda, I definitely enjoyed today's DAPNET training and 1:08:49 1:08:49 demonstration
- thanks for taking us along !!
20:45 that was my 10 yro daughter. Everyone was super cool about getting her involved. Much gratitude.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video it was so interesting Jim certainly knows all there is to know about working horses. It nice to see so many people interested in the working horse. God bless 😊

Learned a lot in this video. Jim going through his process quickly with the grey mare was interesting. Didn’t know jockey sticks were a thing, but I do now; found some old forum posts to learn more.
Jim you are super at traing horses. And Ken and Bill were incredible professional logging horses. ❤Brenda, you wre very good wt filming the action. ❤
Well wow great firming. Brenda thank you for taking the time to film this. Very interesting and watching the horses in the forest was fun to watch. We all agree here who has the experience and has the knowledge .
The very pretty mare you folks bought at the sale is very pretty. Yes just a baby. Sooo glad you don't start using the horses til they are 4 yrs old.

Vielleicht macht es Jim zu Hause auch so, aber bei dieser Veranstaltung hat er keine Zeit zu suchen und er muß hier im Wald noch auf die anderen Teams und Zuschauer achten und es ist alles unbekanntes Gelände, also wird er ständig andere Wege laufen.
Heutzutage werden die Hufeisen anscheinend nur angenagelt. Früher hat der Hufschmied das heiße Eisen in den Huf gebrannt. Ich könnte mir vorstellen, daß es früher einen besseren Anschluss an den Pferdehuf hatte, wie ein individueller Maßschuh beim Menschen.

Die Zeiten ändern sich und das alte Wissen und alte Werte verschwinden immer mehr.
Nur noch wenige können alte Werte und altes Wissen vermitteln. Die Hersellung eines Hufeisens durch einen Schmied hat viel Muskelarbeit gekostet und es war ein wertvoller Maßschuh. Ich habe vor über 25 Jahren bei einem Schmied eine Sammlung "orthopädischer" Hufeisen zur Korrektur gesehen.
Der Schmied ist längst gestorben. Er konnte das Wissen seinem Enkel, der auch Schmied (aber mehr im industriellen Bereich) leider nicht mehr vermitteln. Der Schmied war gleichzeitig auch Pferdezüchter und Preisrichter bei Fahrwettbewerben. Auch dieses Wissen konnte nicht mehr weitergegeben werden.
Das ist politisch gewollt so, denn mit altem Wissen, alten Techniken können die Menschen frei und unabhängig sein.
Es ist sogar besser für die Umwelt.
Aber das begreifen nicht mal alle Bauern in DE. Wachse oder weiche. Sie wollen wachsen und verlieren ihr wertvolles Land, wenn sie die Kredite nicht mehr abzahlen können, trotzdem sie bis zum umfallen gearbeitet haben.
Pferde zu haben ist heutzutage fast nur noch ein Freizeit Hobby von Reichen ohne Pferdeverstand und Herzblut, zum angeben, als Kapitalanlage.

I have to tell Jim that Ken made me laugh as he pulled at the leaves to grab a quick snack but Bill did not get any 😢... Jim for a person who doesn't talk much I truly enjoyed listening to you talk about the harness and training. I don't have a horse but I truly love them. Whhen in girl scouts at summer camp learned how to put a harness on the horse and made sure the bit was in the mouth correctly. I love God's big creatures 🐎..
God bless you Jim and Brenda..
The wonderful sounds of the horses mixed with old equipment sounds and the terrible cacophony of chain saws. There should have been the sound of hatchets hitting the tree trunks! That is a beautiful woods.
What a wonderfull video, i wish i could be there! Thanks
Another great video. Keep them coming
Thanks for sharing!
First those are beautiful woods Brenda. I agree with you. I am interested to know what Jim thought of them and the terrain? Now what , Jim bought another horse??? I am not sure how that will go over when he gets home.

Great video ! Thank you !
Loving these videos
GREAT VIDEO, Brenda & a very good session with Jim. I picked up a few things for my horse. Thank you!!...God Bless
There is so much I could say,,It was just great to see all of this..Thank you Brenda and Jim .Lov from south alabama.
What a gorgeous building.
Seriously? You bought that lil blue filly? What a great demo for how to begin with a new horse, the real deal for sure.
Bill and Ken did some great work out there, but I sense had Jim felled the one that got hung up, it might not have got hung up. Great demo how to get it out with no trouble.
You got a place you want logged? Just run some field days!!
Wonderful, wonderful video Brenda. Greetings from Australia.
Hi Louise, no I didn't buy that filly, for the demonstration, I am just explaining what to do when buying a new horse. Brenda missed the beginning of the demonstration.
Also, Rich is most definitely a better cutter than I am. I hang up trees all the time.
Thank you Jim,Brenda
I like Don, he is a good trainer too. Jim is a very experienced hirse Trainer
How expensive was the ferry ?
Interesting event ….love that huge brick building with black metal roof! Wish you walked around that inside and out showing us!!! What is the history behind that huge barn like building??
Love it!
Jim could have done a small lesson on emergency horse shoe repairs.
Put that on the list for next year, extra shoes. 😊😊
🤔hoof mishap nice Jerry rig and can do 🤭 real Al around event great advice and tutorials mix 👍👀
How’s ken leg I notice after events his leg acts funny…..?
I love your videos 😊
Great video, So you bought a horse, that was a surprise, was it planned or a spur of the moment thing? Nice looking horse, is she a percheron?
Jim didn’t buy the filly. He was just role playing as to what to do if you buy a horse that needs training.
Good to see the lad riding in empty. I sometimes get lazy and ride if its a long way in and not using the cart. As I approach 50 I'm not as spry to nip up on as I used to be though. I ride "sidesaddle" rather than astride so I can hop off quick if I need to. I wish the bush around here was that nice and open.

what breed is the new one jim got it is a beauty . good video all around thanks for sharing
It is interesting to just watch the guys work. I think I miss the pull by pull commentary that Brenda provides during the horse pulls. Also the grey mare I gathered was purchased by the Gordons?
The 1 takeaway I see is the advantage of having the logging cart. It looks so much safer for the horse(s) and teamster.
Question: Can you explain why you use a straight bit please?
Soooooo, did I hear Jim say her bought this Mare at the sale and he’s gonna put her to work?!? Or was he saying that as a “ training scenario “
training scenario
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim I figured as much…… but I never wanna assume when it comes to Jim maybe finding a work ready horse
Awesome you got a new horse! What’s her name?
Love your new Horse You Bought Jim and Brenda. Is she Percheron?
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped....sorry it wasn't clear....Brenda

Little tricks like that can really make a difference. As far as runaways, sometimes they do really hurt themselves. A friend's horse broke her leg on a runaway, and had to be put down. If you think you don't have time to train a colt properly, look at it as an investment. Train that colt properly, and you may have up to three decades of labor out of that horse, where most days are a joy to work with them. I trained my first little filly when I was 18. I got to enjoy her until she was 5, and then I had to sell her. She stayed with that same owner 13 years, and then she came back to me, and I got to enjoy her until just shy of her 35 birthday. The child born to me late in life got to learn to ride on that filly I trained when I was 18. That was more than three decades of payoff for the months I put in when she was young. She worked nearly every day of her life. She did horse and carriage weddings in heavy Baltimore traffic. She drove daily on trails in Aiken, SC for 13 years. She served as a lesson pony and taught kids to ride and jump. At the end of her life, she helped to break other horses to drive, taught a friend to drive, and taught my child to ride.

So did I understand it correctly; you bought a new horse!?
Hi, we didn't buy the filly. For the demonstration Jim just explained what to do when buying a new horse. I missed the beginning of the demonstration so it didn't get taped....sorry it wasn't clear..Brenda
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Thank you for clarifying Brenda! At around 30:30 Jim said: This is a horse I bought this morning. So I got really excited there for a moment :-) Not sure why though, you still have Duke and Earl to get ready as well. Anyways, love watching your videos so thanks again!
New horse? Percheron? So curious 🤪
