I am surprised at the weights listed for fjords.  My 15.2 hand thoroughbred
mare weighed 950 on the vet scales.  My 17.2 Trakehner weighed 1750 on the
truck weight scales.  He is big boned and was quite well muscled as was the
mare.  Are people over estimating weights or have they been on the scales?
Due to their usually deep girth I think the measuring tape is over
estimating weight??????????  Jean
