Draft Horses CAN do more than plow fields.

Draft ponies are great plowing horses but they are also good at dressage and jumping.

Please tell me what you think of my disscussion.

thanks

You are very right....we have a local stallion that has more than proven himself in the jumpers to 3'6" and was amazing at Training Dressage in 2 shows, won his tests with outstanding comments from FEI level judges!!! A lot to be said for the 'try' and heart that he has!!! Pretty neat horse!
