This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sounds to me like we are pounding on the proverbial dead horse. Ever notice the difference between a racing QH or thoroughbred versus a jumper or cowpony? In all breeds there are variations and I see no harm is saying" she is the draft type" "he is the sports type" They do have different conformations like all other breeds. Don't hide behind a "vision" with out dissecting it first. My first fjord was a sport type and could do dressage very well. My second fjord is a light draft type and is having a hard time doing dressage. One has a long neck great for rounding, the second has a short thick neck, hard for him to round. etc etc..etc. They are all fjords but for heaven sakes they have different body structures, Jean
