It’s an honest, respectful conversation that keeps the focus where it belongs—on the kids, the families, and the long-term success of the program.If you filled out the survey, this one’s for you.

This week I sat down with Jake Schut, the guy who can build a draft horse wagon to match your dreams. Jake talks about how he learned the craft, what goes into building a rig that can hold up in the ring and on the road, and what it’s been like showing with Monte West Clydesdales.We also check in with Dr. Chad Zubrod for an update on EHV-1. He breaks down what horse owners need to know right now, what symptoms to watch for, and the best steps to keep your barn protected. Nothing dramatic, nothing sugar-coated. Just clear info from someone who knows his stuff.Thank you to our sponsors of Episode #139!Shipshewana Harness & Supplies Glenwood Snacks Pennwoods Equine Products INC. The Draft Horse Journal Saginaw Valley Equine ClinicSummit Professional ServicesDo you have suggestions for future episodes?

Today we’ve got a fun one. We’re sitting down with Richard Yoder — a guy who seems like he was born with a mic in one hand and a lead rope in the other. Richard’s built a standout career as both a horse trainer and an auctioneer, and he makes juggling the two look way easier than it should be.He’s spent years bringing out the best in horses and matching them with the right homes, and if you’ve ever heard him on the auction block… well, you know he can keep a crowd tuned in and on their toes.We’re going to dig into how he got started, the lessons he’s learned along the way, and what it really takes to succeed in two worlds that move fast, get loud, and never slow down for anybody.Thank you to our sponsors of Episode #138!Shipshewana Harness & Supplies Glenwood Snacks Pennwoods Equine Products INC. The Draft Horse Journal Saginaw Valley Equine ClinicSummit Professional ServicesDo you have suggestions for future episodes?

Today we’re sitting down with the Flory family — Kevin, his wife, and their kids, Grant and Lauren — who’ve made an exciting return to the show ring with their  Belgian horses. For the Florys, this isn’t just about competition, it’s a family affair built on hard work, teamwork, and a lifelong passion for draft horses.Kevin’s story is impressive in its own right — as a high school student, he was already running his own business with employees on the payroll. That same drive and determination shows up today in how his family works together to build and grow their Belgian program and maintain their family business.We’ll talk about what brought them back to the show ring, the lessons they’ve learned along the way, and how they balance business, family, and a whole lot of horsepower.Thank you to our sponsors of Episode #137!Shipshewana Harness & Supplies Glenwood Snacks Pennwoods Equine Products INC. The Draft Horse Journal Saginaw Valley Equine ClinicSummit Professional ServicesDo you have suggestions for future episodes?
