The Shire horse is in good shape for a loooong time into the future! What a magnificent animal.
Thanks for watching!
OMG 😲 75 The merl gray shaded Shire is to die for .. He is just breathtakingly beautiful. I'm in love ..
Thank you for this share, I wouldn't ever get to see this without you.
I so wished I could afford one of your canvases for a center piece in my living room, but as a cancer warrior, I have to many medical bills to be able to afford the 27 × 32 of that stallion. It's the most beautiful painting I've ever laid my eyes on.
Great work 👏.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful Shire horseshoe! I remember when you bought Apollo & he came to you in such poor shape. But, you stuck by him with a good feeding program did mild exercise to start, got him vet checked and after a year he started going to horse shows and eventually started winning! I trust he is doing well. Thank you for rescuing him and God bless...........
These Shire horses are just gorgeous
Wonderful to see the progression in growth and development thru the ages. From fuzzy babies to Magnificient adults. And bohemian rhapsody playing in the background!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Unbelievably well mannered and handled. The ground must shake when they go past. Thanks for all your time and effort to show us!
Glad you enjoyed it! It does shake! Very powerful experience! 😊
It was nice to see the two grays! They are all beautiful.
I agree! Thanks for watching!
I love the instrumental "Queen" music playing 😂
Isn’t it great?! 😂
Thank you so very much for sharing these horses, Shires; I do not have any new words to say how magnificent they are!!!!🌈🌻🍀
They really are! Thanks for watching!
Omg those are the prettiest horses there is. Apollo is beautiful to. I love him
I hope those ponies know they’re pretty. Oh my gosh! Beautiful coats and such fancy feet! And four of ‘um! Thank you for the eye candy!
I'll bet this was a trip of a lifetime for you. I loved riding our neighbors' horses when I was a girl. I always thought I would have my own horse one day, but life got in the way. I will live vicariously through you and my favorite horse Apollo.
Aww thanks Brenda! I appreciate that. Greetings from me and Apollo 🐴
the grey shire was amazing ❤❤❤
I agree! Thanks for watching!
Just stunning! From the colts to the really BIG boys, they were amazing! And they aren't just pretty, either. You got some great shots of those warm, intelligent eyes! Thanks so much for sharing this experience. I do hope you stayed for the mares the next day.
So --- is there an international show? That gelding trophy wasn't half bad, and you and Apollo would be great in the ridden class! 👍
International would be awesome! I wish the quarantine rules weren’t so tricky!
@@apollotheshire Oh, right. I didn't think about that. Too bad!
All the beautiful horse's Apollo is still my winner also blessings from Martinsville Indiana
Thanks! Greetings from me and Apollo!
So Gentle and Kind to humans 😮😮😮 ❤ amazing 🤩 and majestic
Thank you so much for sharing❤❤❤
That was fun, a glimpse of Shire heaven! The young stallion at the end was quite a stunner. And of course, I love seeing the handsome Apollo in the intro and the end. Thanks so much, I’m looking forward to your next installment.
Many thanks!
So many beautiful Shire horses! 😍💖💖
I think so too!
Wow. Loved that you filmed this show and we get to see it!
Sublime.
So your horse art rocks. And what a cool.thing to go see Shires in there home ground.
My boyfriend as a teen had an awesome black Shire named Satan....I know right?!
I had a QH and we had a ton of great riding in Point Roberts Washington in the 70s.
Apollo sure landed in the right place. So great to see you and your daughter teaming up to ride. Both do lucky😊
They were all beautiful.
Can only say, WOW! What a display of historical horse magnificence! Thank you so much for this and being eye's and ears for us. Bless you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Great filming, thankyou very much for posting, hours of joy! X
What a beautiful sight to see, number 43 really stood out for me Santiago, I love his long mane and forelock, the one with the low withers and high back end looked odd and finally I noticed only four greys, wonder if that’s a rarer colour, hope Apollo is doing well too, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
Babies do go through most unfortunate shapes before the grow up dont they
They sort of look like giant awkward puppies until they are done growing. Thanks for watching!
They were all magnificent, i don’t know what they were judged on as there were all ages, some geldings to stallion . Beautiful group and wonderful to see
This was really just to show them all at once versus the individual classes where they were judged. Thanks for watching and please subscribe! 🙂
They're like beautiful tanks.
Apollo is still my winner :)
Mine too!
..I watched it twice! Great video! ❤👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gorgeous thorses.
I think so too!
The Peterborough shire horse show is the biggest in the world and I believe move to Leicestershire.I lve it especially spending the day in the paddocks with them
Wow, wow wow!!!🥰
Столько прекрасных животных в одном месте! Очень красиво!❤
Thanks for watching!
I’m booking my next years vacation there! My heart just swoons over these massive muscular beasts of pure loving beauty:) I probably took 40 screenshots -thanks so much for sharing your love of Shires! Sacramento, CA
It was such a great trip! You would love it! Glad you enjoyed the video 🙂
Thankyou for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
yep, gotta be glad the EGOs were on hold! so well trained and handled. Totally IMPRESSED! I learned to drive with a halflinger stallion, quite the experience in the mixed classes!
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing this with us. I kept thinking, that is a lot of horse to try to walk beside. I know what my Thoroughbred was like, just about pulling my arm out of the socket.
Totally tricky for the handlers!! Thanks for watching!
You couldn't have had a more beautiful day for this. Brilliant. Cheers...from Boston.
Couldn't agree more! Greetings from me and Apollo 😊
I have been waiting for this one! An incredible sight, amazing animals!
Hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Such great footage and amazing shires. WOW thank you
Is it an optical illusion that when the legs aren't feathered in white they don't seem as fluffy? And I agree, I like Apollo the best. His history makes him very special too.
I agree. Apollo is gorgeous, and so are these, but I have to say he's the blue ribbon winner whether or not he'a at the show.💖💖💖
I think it is an optical illusion. Thanks for watching and your nice comment! 😊
Absolutely stunning !!
superb horses
They really are! Thanks for watching! 🙏
Sea sickness watching this. Whoa.
Sorry about that! It’s tricky to film! Thanks for watching. 😊
I realize they do not dock the tails, but the tailbone still seems short. I wonder if it is kind of an optical illusion because of their huge haunches and great height. What a wonderful show. I am somewhat surprised at the number of horses. And these are only Shires! Draft breeds in the UK must be thriving. It seems as though drafts are gaining in popularity.
The tail looks strange when it is shaved for sure! I do think the awareness and popularity of the breed has increased. I’m biased but I think they are amazing! 😊
Tolle Tiere!
Thanks for watching!
If you notice not one tail is docked.!! They've discontinued that practice. Deeming it cruel. So now they just braid up the tails, even when doing any type of harness work at all. They've done the same for ALL Draught (draft) breeds. Best Regards from a Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 🇨🇦🇺🇲
Great observation! I love how the English take care of their shires! Thanks for watching!
@Apollo The Shire & Santiago Michalek It's not only the Shire, but Belgians, Percherons, Clydesdales and even Haflingers. All draft breeds have banned the practice of docking the tail. The only time you will find a docked tail in any draft horse is in the Amish draft horses. They still dock their tails as foals. As soon as they are born, a band is placed around their tail, and it stays there until the tail and band fall off. They essentially, cut off the blood supply until that part of the tail dies and falls away on its own. And because the foal is still young and with mom, she keeps it clean, so no infection ever happens. That's the only place you'll ever find a docked tail now. Never from a renowned or recognized breeder. Best Regards, Jenn. 💖
Wow awesome video! Thanks! Why do the wagon driver wear the thing around there mid section? For warmth?
Thank you for sharing that with us, is this the end of it or just the first day?
This was just the end of the first day. More videos to come. 🙂 thanks for watching
do they cut their tails off?
No, it’s illegal to dock tails in the UK, they are either shaved, hair trimmed or braided. This is done so their long tails don’t get caught in the rigging. Can be very dangerous and injure or kill the horse or driver. Thanks for watching 🙂
@@apollotheshire pretty sure i saw docked tails early on - will have to look again Thanks for your detailed reply.
look at 1;11
@@margaretretk6508 They wouldn't be allowed in the show ring if they were docked.
Why do they cut their tail hair off!!!!
'promosm'
These horses are so beautiful and its ashame thats why they have to put up with the loud mic and the dumb costumes 😮..
but..it's a shame, they cut the tails off!!
They are trimmed or shaved or braided, tails are not cut in the UK.
@Apollo The Shire & Santiago Michalek they are cut..don't tell anything else, please.. i want say that's so in america..sorry
It’s illegal in the UK to dock tails. They are shaved, trimmed, or braided. 🤷🏻♂️
