SPORT HORSES
The Friesian breed has so many well-preserved traits that it is quickly becoming a very popular breed to crossbreed with. With their incredibly kind, loving disposition and show-stopping movement coupled with size and beauty,
the Friesian is an excellent breed to cross with other breeds to enhance, and bring out the best in both. It is a recipe for success, with the end result a horse that is versatile, has a generous and loving heart, and is beautiful to
behold. Friesians cross well with almost any breed including Thoroughbred, Quarter Horse, Morgan, Andalusian, Warmbloods, the list goes on.
Lets start with the color. Purebred Friesians are black, and black is a very desirable and, in my opinion, beautiful color. Because Friesians must be black to be registerable, their pedigree is saturated with black ancestors.
Then we’ll add a healthy dose of athleticism and movement. You cannot truly appreciate a Friesian’s amazing grace and ease of movement until you watch one at liberty. Then, watch a trained Friesian in a dressage class, or in
an exhibition presentation, and you will be overwhelmed with emotion. You would never guess that such a large animal could be so incredibly graceful and light on their feet.
Now, we get to the best part – the disposition. You will not find a kinder, gentler, more loving horse anywhere. It is not the exception to the rule with the Friesian – it is the rule. Friesians are known for the strong bond that they form
with their owners and for their willingness to do whatever is asked of them without hesitation. They will do anything to please their handler and their supreme intellect makes training them pure pleasure.
If all that sounds good, but the price of a purebred Friesian makes you cringe, then a crossbreed might be just what you are looking for. Whether you purchase a Friesian cross, or breed your own mare, the result will be a horse
that you thought only existed in your dreams. And if you plan to offer your foal for sale, you have the added assurance that the Friesian breed is quickly growing in popularity and the market for crossbred horses is very strong.
