Ive posted this before but it too wonderful not to post again! This one is for you, Gary Seibert! I know you love beautiful horses! These horses were originally bred as war horses in the days of knights and armor. As armor got heavier, bigger horses were needed and the Friesian almost became extinct. They are back and are one of the most beautiful horses in stature as well as gait. What gorgeous animals! Just watching them becomes an emotional experience. Can you imagine what it would be like to ride one? Their manes and tails are the longest that I have seen and I noticed that when performing on grass, their hoofs do not kick up a divot, as they land flat footed. Creatures such as these are what make this world so special. These horses are native to the Netherlands. youtube-nocookie/embed/Y5XJbSqwriM?rel=0
