- We went to the National Clydesdale Sale in Springfield Illinois. There were so many beautiful Clydesdales there but we fell in love with one specific mare. She was absolutely perfect and Oliver would LOVE HER! Find out if we bring her home! We also learn some new and cool information out about Oliver's family AND we get to see some horses at the auction who are related to Oliver! We had no idea! So cool!

We are all about raising and training our horses, the Missouri Foxtrotter. Our goal is to bring awareness to this breed and showcase just how wonderful they are! We also raise and train our working border collie dogs. And don’t forget the homesteads sheep, goats and mini cattle!!! We also go to occasional auctions and recently have gotten into regenerative farming/agriculture. We are all about learning how to improve our fields/soil.
Phew! That’s a lot! But we love it! Make sure to subscribe to our channel to follow along!

Going to a horse sale without money and a trailer practically guarantees you’ll fall in love with at least one horse.
Haha, right😂
Yes, I agree. Been there, done that. Fortunately, I usually get over it. Realizing I purposefully do not take a trailer so that I don't bid.
I do this with reptiles lol
"Lets not bring money, they only accept cash we can't get anything without cash" lol then we find something and they accept cashapp and PayPal. We had to stop going
@@homesteadhorsemanship 😊
They want other people to pay for their horses. send money !!!
I’m just so impressed that you took time to learn more about the Clydesdale breed to be more knowledgeable about taking care of Oliver❤
Aren't they the best horse people??
Their tales are really beautiful when they're allowed to grow out.
Yes! I keep hoping that docking will end.
Tail.
Thanks for including the prices the horses went for! Super interesting.
All those horses are so beautiful. Thanks for the wonderful video
Love Oliver
He is still the cutest off all❤❤❤
The best boy!
I never tire of seeing Clydesdales. So majestic, so beautiful. This was a lot of fun. Thanks!🐴💕
How about Shires?
some people never get tired of eating them, either.
Please don't dock the tails. That's how they get the flies off of them.
Is this legal in the US?
@@sphhyn yes it is.😢
Do they amputate the bone in the tail or what is "dock" ?
@@Looiiish I am not a native English speaker. Docking refers to cutting off body parts of animals I think. Like dogs ears and tails and horses tails. In the case of the horses they cut of the tail including the bone of course. It’s not legal in most of Europe I think. At least not here in Germany. I haven’t seen a docked horse tail here in Germany but people still do it to dogs sometimes although it’s not legal.
@@sphhyn thank you for clearing this out for me.
The way I feel walking into the animal shelter and leaving without several dogs. . . I’m in shock that these magnificent beasts are so inexpensive! I thought they would all be priced in the many tens of thousands!
We were shocked at low prices too. The local sale where we saw Oliver is higher.
@@homesteadhorsemanship Right! I thought that 40k would be about average and go up from there. Maybe it’s uncertainty about the economy. Certainly people got some phenomenal deals today.
Maybe that’s why that mare with foal went together to the same owner!😅🙏
Docking is a Amish tradition to keep them from tangling in harness
I just love the long tails
You can tell Brielle has been pampered
Om gosh what beautiful and disciplined horses people should be so proud to own such a horse
What magnificent creatures! I am truly falling in love with the breed. Can't wait to see Oliver and Souix's baby. Oh my God I wish you had gotten that baby at the sale! Watch out now - you may end up raising Fox Trotters and Clydesdales! These animals get into your blood. Be still my heart!
There will be plenty of time to get a gf for Oliver. He’s still a (big) baby, and isn’t quite done growing. I kinda agree with Emery: let’s wait until the fences get shored up before bringing in another horse that could knock em all down lol
#55 is beautiful!!! I was rooting for Briella to be your family new girl!!!
Oliver's sire is incredibly handsome! WOW!
glad you could make it to Springfield IL !! There is a Vet in Arthur that breeds Clydesdales.
It's called an Egg Butt Snaffle, JR. Best bit to start any horse on, other than a Rubber Bit. I use a Rubber Bit if I'm retraining a horse that has a very hard mouth, then I transfer them over to the Egg Butt Snaffle, and they stay soft as butter in the mouth. Great choice!! Best Regards from a Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
I tried buying the rubber one cause I watch Berry Hook but the salesman/shop owner talked me out of it saying it wasn’t safe for stallions?
@Homestead Horsemanship Bull crap!! I've used them on stallions. Do it all the time!! He just wanted you to spend more money, that's all. But the Egg Butt is still a great bit to start Oliver in. It is a very gentle bit to use. I do suggest though this one thing. When you bit him up, don't put any creases where the bit sits. Let Oliver learn " To carry the bit" on his own", I don't mean let it be so loose he can put his tongue over it, but loose enough that Oliver has the responsibility of where that bit sits in his mouth. You will find you'll have an easier time of him 1. Accepting the bit, and 2. Being able to be very deliberate at first with what you ask of him. And once he knows what you're asking of him, you won't hardly have to move the line or rein at all, and he will respond in a heartbeat. Just a suggestion as that's what I do as a trainer. And I've been training horses for 50+ years for both riding and driving. Hope this helps JR. Remember, please, these are just my suggestions only!! So people out there don't get on me for how I do things. Every trainer trains differently. And you always have to have a Plan B, C, D, AND E, because every horse is an individual. And what works on one horse may not work on another. Best Regards and good luck, JR!! Love from a Retired Paramedic, and a S&R Dog and Handler Team Trainer, Horse Trainer and FEI Coach and Judge from Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
@@jenniferlehman326 Your advice sounds golden to me, and you do have a load of experience! I have heard other good trainers who said exactly the same things, including teaching him to carry the bit, which is very important for numerous reasons. Your humbleness isn't necessary, but it is appreciated as being common courtesy. It makes me respect you even more. But your excellent info would have been enough anyway. From a Manitoban trapped in Alberta. 🇨🇦
@Catty Majiv Stay safe out there with all that wild fire smoke that's happening right now!! Thank you for the encouraging words. I get a lot of negativity sometimes when I make suggestions like I did to JR. That's why I said what I did. But I thank you for YOUR kind words. And again, stay safe and inside as much as possible with all that smoke outside!! Love Jenn.💖
I thought what you said made a lot of sense. Like JR said, Barry Hook uses rubber bits, even if they're his own custom made ones. That guy could make a fortune just selling his bits. Everyone wants them.
Love, love, love Brielle! Her coloring, her conformation, and her demeanor. Her build is beyond impressive. She is the Laila Ali / Ronda Rousey of Clydesdales.
❤ yes!! Brielle is a goddess. Just beautifully powerful!
Her color is pretty, but I noticed that she seems to stand a bit base narrow in the back. For instance at 9:46. Maybe she was just standing funny at the moment, but it was a potential concern I had because I thought that base narrow conformation made horses were more susceptible to ringbone or heel bruising.
Brielle is an absolutely beautiful horse
Love love love Oliver ❤
Really was looking forward to this video. It didn’t disappoint. Please update us on the auction Mare with palomino baby. Would love to see what the baby looks like now. ❤️
Horses are just magnificent. From the tiny pit ponies that would have worked in pitch black horrible tunnels, to the Clydesdales who would have ploughed our fields and ran with us on the front line at war. I just love them all

Some really nice horses there. Oliver will be just as fabulous ! That pony was beautiful -- thanks for the great video
The cheapest shires/clydesdales I've seen in my country starts at like 5000/7000 euro's but mostly above 10... Brielle is a mare of my dreams, never could afford buying her here
Curious. What country are you in and do they dock tails there? Thank you.
@@bernadettecartin The Netherlands. No, as far as I know that's illegal to do nowadays... (Some Belgians/ Drafts still are, but they are bred in other countries) it's, I think, the same law that applies to dog ears and tails of breeds that are known like that. But I have to look it up (was just going to bed, almost midnight, no clue why I only just now see this comment tbh.. but thanks for asking)
Doesn't cost anything to look and the information you gained is priceless. Beautiful horses
JR, WHY would they be selling such a young horse #39?? Also Brielle(?) #55 was absolutely a gorgeous horse!!! Ceys Magnus was so good looking. You know the 1 thing that ALL horses seem to have in common are the soulful looking eyes!! So warm, so caring, so loving. I have no idea how anyone could an sell a horse after having raised it for 2 to 4 years??? I know you raise most to sell to their hopefully forever home, but it's got to be so heartbreaking. I've never seen an auction and I thank you for dragging me and others along. Ron
Some absolutely stunning Clydesdales there but Oliver’s still the best 😁
BTW, thank you for putting the prices on screen. It is really hard to understand what the heck the auctioneer is saying, including the price.
Thank for taking us along, beautiful horses!
Clysdales are so majestic and magnificent to behold!!🐎🐎🐎
They take my breath away💖🐎
How fun to be there and experience them.
Be safe in your travels❤🙏

THIS WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE FOR ME!!! Thank you SO MUCH for ALL the filming and taking us all along-it meant more than you imagine!! 😊
Absolutely gorgeous horses!!! Nice to see Oliver's relatives!!! ❤❤😍😍
OLIVER ❤️
It's. Nice. To. See. So. Many. Horses. Like. Oliver.
I do truly understand the tug on the heartstrings JR. I too was that way in my younger years, .....but in this instance I believe Emeri's wisdom was the right choice. Get your farm projects under good control before taking on more responsibilities. I know, it wasn't the "popular" choice in the heat of the moment, ...but it was the "right" choice. God will have something beautiful waiting for you down the road once your ready to receive/manage more. God Bless!
What a shame that you weren't able to get that beautiful mare but you must remember this: 'THINGS HAPPEN OR DON'T HAPPEN BASED ON WHAT HAPPENS OR DOESN'T HAPPEN!' Then just take a deep breath & let the thought go. When everything is all in line & right, that's when the right deal will present it's self for you. Then just be happy & thankful for the experience & the knowledge that you picked up at this auction & be proud of yourselves for being patient & understanding!
Wondering how the new moma & foal are doing? The ones that you were able to rescue from the auction? I've been looking out for a new video on them? Have you named baby girl yet? When will they be ready to get outside into the pasture with the other moma's & their foal's? I can't wait to see them all together out in the pasture running, jumping & playing with each other!!!
What gorgeous horses they are. 💞
Talk about horse power ! Wow
At the same time they have a gentle way about them.
Surprised some went for lower than I would have expected.
Nice spread of buildings. Well maintained.
Sorry you couldn't get that horse but stay positive. Oliver is still healing and he's looking beautiful.
The right addition will come when the time is right, be ready!
Thank You for the video.
So many Lovely looking horses
Good idea not taking the Trailer lol😎
My daughter is called Rielle! Kinda like a Brielle 💜
Just thinking of a team marked like Brielle! WOW! ❤❤😃
Oliver is a sweetheart I love him dearly ❤
Finallyyyyy another video ❤️
Lol Sorry! It take awhile to get these done! We are trying😊
Noooo I totally understand I’ve just been checking EVERYDAY lol
@@homesteadhorsemanshipAbsence makes the heart grow fonder. I was missing you all too!
@@homesteadhorsemanship
Well what do you do all night? Lol
Excited to watch!
really interesting to see the sale!
I really enjoyed this Clydesdale horse sale .
What an great trip! So many wonderful horses and opportunities to learn.
It was disappointing to watch Brielle walk away (I think I was in love, too!), but in another year or so, you'll be much better prepared to participate.
Just watch: before long, you'll be showing Clydesdales, too!
Quality horses take much money and experienced owners. You don't expect to buy a horse at an auction like this, when you're still guessing on the bit? Carrying little money? No way. Buyers should be screened as closely as the horses. Way more experience and money needed in this case. Good hearted folks, but they're naive in every aspect of horse world. You don't show up to auction so late, without a room, etc... Just silly. Guess they slept in their truck, and even still arrived on auction grounds at latest possible time. I can't take these videos serious. Meh.
Thank You for sharing! Love CLYDESDALES so much, this made me so happy! Just the right one will come for Oliver! The mare y'all loved was beautiful, but God always has a plan! Love Y'all and God Bless!😊❤❤❤❤
Is it still legal in the us to dock their tails? There is a reason why horses have tails!
A great idea to look and learn about bloodlines when considering breeding Oliver. As with any breed, there are some that are better dispisition and conformation, color and markings than others. Always fascinating when ya get to tracking bloodlines! Is Brelles color acceptable for a Cydesdale? A lot of white......curious as to how they got to that color!
Your enthusiasm for Clydesdales is contagious. Thank you for the high-quality video of the sale and thank you very much for listing the horses’ names as well as their sales prices. Wouldn’t be nice if you could always keep those feathers that white? They are stunning.
Try the shire breed, black with 4 white legs and a wide blaze is my top choice, preferably 18h and up. But I have a grey shire that is ALL white. Very impressive
It is great that you got to see and evaluate so many Clydesdale horses at various ages and stages of development.. You have a much better idea of what Oliver's potential is through John and his research of Oliver's sire as well as seeing some horses with similar bloodlines. I sure hope Oliver makes a full recovery and that you are able to show him in competition. It sure would be great for all of us fans to watch Oliver grow and develop to become a winner and a sought after stud stallion.
My favorite at the auction was the Black feathered foot one!! So unusual but yet beautiful
But...overall...OLIVER is my favorite FURever❤! 😊❤
Thanks for the video, so many fantastic horses. give Oliver a hug !
Fantastic footage. Thank you. Have a safe trip home.
Really interesting - thank you for taking us!
These 2019 gelding oh wow look at his Neck!
Mighty powerful! The Mayer you want for Oliver was beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
choices, choices, buy Clydesdale stock or make the Annual farm Payment...a real tough decision. 😀
Thanks for sharing this it was very educational. I learned a lot. Sorry you didn’t get number 55.
This was the first video I saw of yours and all the talk about Oliver had me subscribing and binge watching Oliver’s story.I felt so bad for him when you first saw him, he just looked so sad and defeated. I’m so glad y’all took the time to find him and share his story. He is a beautiful soul now! Thanks again, you have such a nice loving family. Nice to see these days. Keep up all your hard work!
Wow so many beautiful horses.
We live in Springfield, IL and I never realized that we hosted the Clydesdale sale. I would have been there just to admire all those fantastic horses! Glad you liked those old horse barns. As a kid, my Dad used to walk us through those stately old barns just so we could talk to and pet the horses. Dad always said he wished he could have brought us up on a farm so we could each have our own horse and learn to care for animals. I agreed with him.
Enjoyed the show. Remember Brielle from the short a while back - she really was gorgeous. And that little one at the end that you had regrets about missing was super cool. Pity, but at the end of the day it's also good to keep your ability to say "no" to snap decisions in good practice.
That’s called an eggbutt snaffle and it has a nutcracker action on the tongue which can pinch and poke the roof of the mouth. It requires gentle, sensitive hands.
Hmm. That’s not how it was explained to us. Hopefully it’s not but we will look into it a bit more. Thank you for the information.
All snaffles that have a single jointed mouthpiece have that nutcracker action. Consider a mullenmouth snaffle if you want to drive him.
@@homesteadhorsemanship hahaha you said "bit" more
So nice to meet John and his information. Never mind J R next time ❤😂
I am so glad you shared this experience with us!
I absolutely adore this breed!
I just love learning about horse & dog breeds - Anne in Louisiana
Brielle is certainly a lovely lady horse. When the time is right I am sure if you want a Clydesdale mare for Oliver that she will come your way. It would be really nice if you could rescue one like you rescued Oliver. I hate to see any animal in such poor shape but it feels wonderful to watch you turn a horse’s life around.
Truly enjoyed the tour of beautiful horses..This breed amazes me that they are so large and strong yet so gentle..I agree that mare was gorgeous and I had wished you won her...Glad your family got to take this opportunity to go and learn about Clydesdales, thanks for sharing.
I'm in love with Stillbrooks Fred, and with every one of his undocked and majestic multicolored hairs of his tail! That was a beautiful tail! How I wish my horses had those colors in theirs, and that thickness. Just magnificent. He was a lovely mover, too!
Love that you show us what the horses sold for, thanks so much! (I’m new to your channel and am enjoying it so much!)
Wow what beautiful Clydesdale horses!! Very impressive and will be dreaming of finding a great mare for Oliver 😊❤❤ Thanks for sharing the auction and meeting with followers!!
Hi good video. Its called an eggbutt snaffle yes. Loved the mare too. And the yearling but good if head rules the heart at times too xx
Wow tysm you all are so cool, I'm learning alot from you guys too. Blessings 🙌 always
Thanks for sharing the sale ♥
These stalls are much better than the pens in the prior sale barns.
Thanks for sharing. What gorgeous horses. Praying they all have wonderful lives. Kismet. What is meant to be will be.
This was great! And it seemed like a nicer auction place. Thanks for sharing.
Brielle was drop dead gorgeous. I’m sure it was so hard to walk away.
Wow super video loved the. Clydesdales. 🥰
A FUNtastic video. I fell in love so many times. Brielle(sp?) Was gorgeous. I'm glad you all got to go and had such a good time. Thank YOU for taking us along. Great camerawork Emory!!!
A Colorado Mountain Grandma USA 💜✌️💕🐴😁
TY for filming this auction~~it was so much fun to watch. I 💖💗💖the black & white ones...they were AWESOME!!
Thank you! This video was just wonderful, my gosh! I think this was a training trip for you so that you can prepare yourselves for the future Clydesdale addition to your Stall. It will happen! By now let’s go back to all those dear horses and babies you left home. I’m missing news from the blond baby and mummy. How are they, still quarentined? And Oliver, how is he after doctors appointment? Legs itching are better.
Cool video...thanks for taking us along. Lovely horses.
A great, informative video! Very fun to watch! :)
Clydesdale horses are loving and giving ...very sweet horses ...i have one gelding ❤
That speckled mare was gorgeous. What you should do is learn about Clydesdale bloodlines and confirmation. Then you can make an informed decision on which Clydesdale mare to buy. You may be able to find a mare at another auction. Also at some point I would have someone who knows Clydes really well to evaluate Oliver on bloodlines and confirmation. Hopefully his starvation did not stunt him and he will reach his full potential. Also if you want to breed a few determining what buyers want as far as color and body type is important (I noticed a few seemed to be smaller and finer boned yet they were full bloods). Those Hackney crosses were interesting too. There might be a future crossing them with a Foxtrotter.
Great advice. It was so nice to see so many Clydesdales. I live in Scotland, home of the Clydesdale where they are quite rare. There definitely was more than one 'type' at the auction....show, riding, working and all rounder's. Its good to familiarise oneself with the breed SOP's (standard of points). Learning about bloodlines and what lines gel is important for anyone who wants to breed for temperament and conformation. Good luck on your Clydesdale journey.
@@callyg54Hi! Do they still dock them there, or has it been banned?
@Bernadette Cartin in 1949 it became illegal to Dock or nick a horses tail in the UK.
"The operation of docking or of nicking may be performed in any case in which a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, after examination of the horse, has certified in writing that the operation is in his opinion necessary for the health of the horse because of disease or injury to the tail."
Also
"No docked horse coming from a place outside the United Kingdom shall be landed from a ship or aircraft unless the landing is permitted by an officer of Customs and Excise or licensed by the Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries.
An officer of Customs and Excise shall not grant any such permission as aforesaid unless he is satisfied that the horse will be exported from Great Britain as soon as practicable; and the said Minister shall not grant any such licence as aforesaid unless he is satisfied on the representation of the person applying for the licence or otherwise that it is intended that the horse shall be used for breeding purposes."
@@callyg54 Thank you for the info. Now if only the US would catch up . . .
Great video! Thx for sharing. Had no idea some horses go for $40G. Should ask that one viewer what horses he has for sale. He said he had 12. 😊 ❤
There are horses that go for more. A horse in the Olympics can be 6 figures. $40000 is a lot for a horse though.
i had no idea clydesdales could be so sporty! these look like absolutely beautiful riding horses.
23:48 i like this gelding too!
30:40 also love this mare and foal
Beautiful horses. ❤
Thanks for sharing this adventure. 👍 55 was unique .Blessings 🙏
I would check for docked tails or natural. I prefer the braided naturals over docked. Really would love to find a nice breeder to buy a Clydesdale for my husband. Average horse sizes won't work for him, he is too tall for most and he fell in love with the Gypsy, Drums, and the Clydesdales.
I prefer a trimmed up tail not docked. The Jim and Brenda channel with their drafts dont dock their tails, but keep them high and trimmed.
@@juliehoward7396 I could deal with trimmed like that. I'll look them up. Love seeing horses that are well cared for.
They all looked so beautiful
Thank you for this video 📸. Gorgeous horses just like. Oliver!!!!
Oh my! I’ve always been a lover of horses. But ever since Sweet Oliver came along and now, after this video, I’ve been bitten hard by the Clydesdale bug! Such magnificent creatures! I hope that someday there will be another Clydesdale on the Rosa homestead!
My favorite was horse Nr.55, she was so pretty and the coat colour, so so pretty❤
What a GREAT Family Adventure----educational and inspiring! LOVED watching all these gorgeous horses. Maybe you'll be doing something else with John in the future, seems like a good resource.
This was so interesting!! Love learning more about Clydesdales. Thank you!! And congrats on 50k subscribers 🎉🎉🎉
Very nice show, thank you 👍🏻
My favorite horse! Thank you so much for sharing. Sending love and light.
Loved watching this, thank you for taking us along!❤
I've been waiting for this video. So interesting. So many beautiful giants. Thank you. 😊😊❤❤
Your videos as so clear and detailed with a lot of personal emotion. Well done all.
