Clydesdale horses for joy riding.

I have 2 Percherons and I use them both for riding.

She is really pretty! I'll snatch up another Fjord as soon as we find another nice gelding in our area - I'd have a hundred if I could afford it!

Okay Kelly G, you have me intrigued with the Fjord breed. Do you know of any breeders in the MD/VA area? I have sent an email to Hill Farm Fjords in MD this morning, but they are the only ones listed that I could find in this area.

I love draft horses. I have heard they make saddles to fit them not sure how hard they are to find though.

you could ride bareback! LOL ouch! I would love to have a draft someday. I looked at a draft x one time to buy and he was one of the smoothest horse I have ever ridden!

...and I agree - bareback is comfy!

Drafts are comfortable to ride bareback--they are not bony,- they are rounded and comfy. We have a spotted draft. (paint perch) He's young but great!!!

OTOH, feeding a draft is more money. And alot of farriers don't like to work with drafts, from what I have heard.

Oh and here is Pal, we had to send him to a rescue this year as he was being boarded out west with a friend and we just couldn't afford the insane board out in Calgary any longer and now he has become a foster horse, companion horse.

Pal was a haflinger / belgian cross

Its so cool to hear others wanting to ride Clydesdales also! I want a Clydesdale so badly. I just need a barn first, but as soon as that comes - that is the breed I am getting.

KellyG and Lupinefarm, Beautiful horses! I really love the Haflinger and Fjords. I ride a Foxtrotter/draft cross that belongs to my neighbor, and just love him. If I ever get another horse of my own, it will be a draft cross.
Ps I've also ridden a percheron and clydesdale and loved it!
