Check out the French Henson: http://www.henson.fr/englishv/infosgb.html
The French are crossing Fjords with Thoroughbreds, Selle Francais, etc to
create the "Henson".
* At last Henson Horses are an official breed recognized by the French
Government in 2003
After 25 years of work creating a specific breed, Henson horses have
been recognized by the French Ministry of Agriculture as a new official
French breed of Horses particularly adapted to outdoor riding activities
and leisure riding. this opens up new opportunities for us and specifically
access to all types of competitions requiring "proper breed" papers! A
committee meeting of June 11th approved the breed and stud book and a
ministerial decree will set this "in stone" for July 14th 2003! Thanks to
all those who have been working with us on this project for the past 25 years!
