Amish favorite? edit
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124640811360577075.html seems to imply that the Amish particularly prize this breed. --Gwern (contribs) 02:04 1 August 2009 (GMT)
- From the context of the article, it appears that it's more a modern prestige thing amongst those Amish folks who have both moved to Florida and who appear to be losing touch with their roots. The Standardbred is the more common harness animal for the Amish. The DHH as used in America is not a practical working horse, certainly NOT "plain". Interesting article, though.
