I have a question about how much weight a Fjord can handle. I have noticed 
that some of the Fjords listed for sale are noted as to be "a ladies horse". I 
am assuming this means they can't handle a lot of weight. But how would you 
know if you went to look at one for sale? 
 


I believe a horse can safely carry 1/4 of it's weight.

definitely want one that both my husband and I could ride without injuring it.
