Kathleen......you are correct about the "broker" for these horses. I have contacted Frog Pond Farm Horse Rescue...they specialize in drafts and the response was the New Holland fjord situation is a broker ad, and Frog Pond will not work with them as she does not approve of how they conduct business. You can read about this "broker" on Frog Pond Draft Horse Rescue - google them. Sad for these fjords.......
