What breed of horses do Amish use?

The Amish don't necessarily favor one specific breed of horse. They primarily use draft horses for their farming and transportation needs.

Here are some common draft horse breeds seen among Amish communities:

* Percheron: Known for their strength, size, and gentle temperament.

* Belgian: Strong, sturdy, and known for their pulling power.

* Clydesdale: Known for their impressive size and feathered feet.

* Shires: Large, powerful horses with a calm disposition.

* Standardbred: While not a true draft breed, they are sometimes used by the Amish for pulling buggies.

The specific breed choice often depends on the individual Amish farmer's needs, preferences, and local availability.
