Hello List :)
I have been lurking on this list for years ;) and have followed the exploits
of some fabulous, funny horses and their owners. I have been wanting a Fjord
for years, I got sidetracked with (shameful I know) Haflingers... and I have

So, I'm curious about things we can learn from this.Practical takeaways.
Fjord trainers: Any differences with installing that one-rein
stop/disengagement of the hind-quarters with Fjords? I'm not the best rider
in the world, but as a thinking adult beginne

This is such a lovely letter for those of us who love this breed so much...and
so very true...The other day when I put Andy and J.J. out after their oats,
there was a large patch of ice right where they had to walk to get out to the
arena and to their hay...I had salted

I agree that any horse seriously benefits from good training and consistant
handling and (IMO) the smarter the individual, the more they profit. I
think Fjords, as a group, are less inclined toward hysteria than some other
breeds but NOBODY is born golde

I think many of you say it very well, a fjord is a wonderful breed, but they
are a horse! Individuals vary in temperament, but as a whole most are very
friendly. I have had some of my worst accidents on fjords, but I don't fear my
fjords because there usually w

While Fjords are indeed stronger than most other breeds of horse, I've never
had an occasion where I could not control, stop, or turn any of the Fjords
I've owned. (Five total, all large geldings, and not all of them well
trained at first when I got them)

MY opinion. If you do not know about horses, get some experience before you

I've really enjoyed reading these emails over the past few days. It has
definitely made me very happy with my decision to buy a Fjord.
I have had

at this time, but when the opportunit
