Key Facts About The Friesian Breed

The Friesian horse is immensely popular and used in various branches of equestrian sport, both as a riding and driving horse. Without doubt, the Friesian breed delivers great performance to even the most demanding horse owners.

Distinguishing Features:
The jet black colour, the long, thick mane & tail, and thick feathering of the lower legs.

The spacious and powerful elevated gaits, the harmonious build and the noble head, set on a lightly arched neck, complete the aristocratic and fiery appearance of the Friesian breed. Its amicable character is the key to a great utility build.

Country of Origin: Netherlands.
