She's a frequent poster on this board and her e-mail address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm not aware of an English edition. Arve Bakken's book does give credit for most photos at the photo captions. I didn't see any attributed to you in the chapter on Fjord's outside Norway, but maybe he used them in a different chapter. I did notice two photos attributed to Anne Appleby. There's also photos of Gayle Ware (spelled "Wave" in the caption) on Woodland's Dustin, Dave MacWethy on a Fjord drawn carriage at Libby, Gene Bauer and Susan Keating on a really nice looking stagecoach pulled by four Fjordhorses in Ontario, Harold Jacobson with a Fjordhorse (Dragtind?), plus other photos with names I don't recognize. There's a photo of Bob von Bon and Arne Presthus on the page discussing the Fjordhorse in the Netherlands. Wish I could read Norwegian!

Re: Size of bridle?
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Deb wrote: ...What size [bridles] do you guys use? How do you know? ... Well, trial & error helps. ;-) Bit expensive though. I'd say Fjords fit a variety of sizes, depending on their general conformation. I have found out the hard way to never assume the throatlatch of a bridle will fit fine just because the headstall is the right measurement. Fjordy necks are often larger in proportion than other horses. For instance, my gelding Tuopen takes a draft size halter & bridle, mainly because his throatlatch is so large. Sissel has a large-horse halter although her regular-size horse bridle fits fine. Her son Finn wears the same. I use a large-horse halter on Sis and Finn so they can eat comfortably with halters on. The noseband of regular-horse halters are a bit too snug for that. I never leave halters on my horses when they're in the pasture, but I sometimes turn them loose in my front yard to mow the grass -- for that, they're haltered. For bridles, I measure from one corner of the horse's mouth over the poll to the other corner. That's the approximate headstall measurement, for use with a typical snaffle bit. If you use a curb bit, you might want to subtract 2-4 inches to allow for the distance the bit extends up from the horse's mouth toward the poll (the "purchase" I think it's called). With the buckles set to the middle hole, the bridle's headstall should be about the same measurement, within a few inches either way. I also measure the horse's throatlatch mesurement -- around the throat and poll, allowing for the looseness I'd normally allow when buckling the throatlatch. The bridle's throatlatch should be about the same measurements. You can measure halters the same way, although the measurements don't need to be as precise. My local farm supply allows people to return halters if they're kept clean and the tags are left on -- you might see if your tack supply has the same policy. That way you can try on different halters to see which one fits best. DeeAnna

Yearling colt for sale
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello all I hate to post the following message, but I've found in my limited experience with horses, the more time I spend with them the more I bond with them; so, we are selling our yearling colt. I simply don't have time to work with all the horses I've collected and don't have a potential job for this colt in the years to come. I would love for him to be that special horse to someone. He is a bit on the drafty side and at 1 1/2 yrs old stands almost 13.2. His nature is very quiet, so quiet in fact, that I've never in the year we have owned him seen him truly afraid of anything.He has had a harness put on him and it was a non-event . I've put my grandchildren on his back and he doesn't react anymore than he does when one of my chickens hop up there. I think, when the time comes, he will be easy to train. His father is a canadian born horse -- Kervan Hostarsonson of Hostar His mother is also canadian born -- Lulla both her sire and dam (if I am able to read my registration papers correctly) are Norwegian born (there is an "N" after their name on pedigree) If anyone is interested you may write, phone or e-mail to the folllowing addresses: Mary Harvey 9137 Goose Creek Valley Road Montvale, Virginia 24122 (540) 947-2068 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Subject: Re: Size of bridle?
This message is from: "Dave McWethy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Before I started Camptown Harness, I had trouble getting bridles to fit. I remember sending new driving bridles back to Smuckers twice (they should have known better) before I gave up on them. The solution was to make bridles. There is nothing complex about fitting Fjord heads. You just have to make bridles the right size. At this point, we probably have made more harness for Fjord horses than anyone else, perhaps excluding someone in Norway. I have joked that we make harness to fit Fjords and adapt them to other breeds, rather than the other way around! Not surprisingly, since my own horses are my models, Fjords are the most prominent on our website. Having said this about Fjord bridles, it happens that not all are the same size. There are some that have larger noseband or crownpiece-throatlatch measurements, and we make those changes from a "basic" Fjord size. The most common problem in off the shelf bridles is that browbands are too short. Fjords mostly require 18 inches, end to end, and occasionally but rarely, 19 inches.
