No group of people on earth take life as carelessly as Amish do, they raise everything to eat it, period. They have plenty of kids and friends and don't need the companionship of pets near as much as more civilized people do. Dogs has always been considered man's best friend and Horses even more so, did you know in the state of OHIO the government states there are more horses than humans!!!!
Some go as far to say when horses die their next step is to be a human!!!
