I was heavy into dressage at the time. I was also breaking into the draft horse world Wanted a Friesian big time so settled on a light Body Percheron.

I actually showed at a show where they had Friesians... My goodness they were soo sweet and agile.

Friesians have always been my dream horse. I couldn't and wouldn't want to keep up with all that feathering and hair though. Whew.

That picture is actually a Percheron. They came from similar locations in Europe... Both were used as Fighting horses.... The Percheron moved on to field work and the Friesian almost died out.

At this show I went to our first I met one of the foundation supporters for the Friesian breed. And dang it if I can remember his name. But he helped me hitch my girl to her Medowbrook cart. And his Keurings assistant helped me with the rest. First American that quilified to do the Keurings... A test for suitablity and conformation done at the trot in hand using a triangular pattern. Stallions and mares have to go through it. its horse inspection to the Nth degree.

there are a couple of blood lines. If they say it s a hitch line then they are lighter and taller and more active. percherons actually have some Arab in their foundation stock.

My girl does the whirly gig Arab style head swing when shes going to do something interesting.... LOL

I actually had a Friesian fan mistake Katee as a Friesian at the show. One of the differences with her is her tail is not docked. But she was at around 1600 lbs at the time so pretty svelt for .a Percheron. The Woman came up and said she was lovely and asked if I were going to breed her... I was in line for a free horse wash at the time and that happened to be on the Friesian side of the barns. I said Yes I may breed her but it wouldnt be to a Friesian... She was stunned and asked why not.... I said "Because shes a Percheron" The woman promptly said " I thought so she has a Common head" and walked off.

A few of the Friesian owners chuckled and told me Katee had a lovely head. I wasnt worried.

For what its worth I found the Friesan Owners to be just as kind and just as helpful as the Draft horse owners.

When I went over there to wait in line I was on crutches... My girl never messed with me or took me off balance. then I Saw a Friesian sTallion taken out of his stall... O my Gawd... He was cat like stretching first is front legs in a natural bow then stretching forward parking those hind legs behind him... Oh he knew he was purty.... LOL
