In the end, the truth only came out because of the strong bond she had formed with Hanna.All disciplines. But really, a lot of the credit belongs to Georgie. As a result, Walter decided not to sell this beautiful team. But she swore Georgie and I to secrecy, so it looked like the team would be sold.īut then, when Paul saw how upset Hanna was at the prospect of losing the horses – he came clean to his father. It’s actually Hanna who has the close connection to Lucas and Alexander. But he’s too proud to tell, Walter, his father. Then, Paul’s sister, Hanna, admitted that Paul isn’t comfortable around the horses. But he refused my help and didn’t want to discuss it further. It became clear that the issue was with Paul, not the horses. He allowed too much slack in the reins and when the team began to pick up speed, he failed to pull back on them enough to regain control. He was defensive and tense from the outset. The answer began to emerge when I asked Paul to come to Heartland to drive the team. And they delivered the same result, acting like the perfect team. So if I couldn’t get to the bottom of their behaviour issues – the family planned to sell them.īut when I started ground driving them, they pulled on the reins evenly, were very well-mannered and doing exactly what they’re supposed to do. Apparently this wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. And on a recent hayride, the horses took off on Paul, the driver, and he couldn’t regain control.

Since Percherons are so versatile, they are a welcome addition to many modern farms.īut this team (Lucas and Alexander) is only used for recreational purposes. They can maneuver through mud and snow in conditions where even modern tractors fail.

Percherons are a breed of powerful draft horses known for their intelligence, ease of handling and their willingness to work. A local Hutterite family brought their team of Percheron horses to Heartland.
