WHICH DRAFT
BREED IS RIGHT FOR YOU ?
Getting
the right horse is important for, if nothing else, safety.
I liken it to buying a car.
Some
want sports cars and some want big trucks.
Drafts are definitely trucks
manual transmissions No
power steering.
IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE,
CAREFUL CONSIDERATION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THE FOLLOWING:
What is the experience level of the rider?
What type of horse does the rider have experience with?
What is the personality of the rider:
(quiet/timid, average, aggressive, / fearless)?

tack?
