Shire Horse | characteristics, origin & disciplines

Показать описание

Magnificent Shire horses are one of the workhorse breeds that helped to create modern society. Giants of the equine world, they were once a familiar sight in country and town as they ploughed the land, delivered goods and helped to move railway carriages from place to place on station yards. Today, it is mainly specialist draught horse enthusiasts who buy a Shire, though these mighty horses are also becoming popular as riding horses.

Our 8 years old Shire mare is incredibly amazing. We got her when she was a 4 months old filly. She's now 18.3 h tall and she weighs 2200 pounds.

Once one had a Shire horse nothing else will ever do.

Absolutely beautiful
So graceful and light on their feet.
I'm so envious of anyone who works with or owns one.

They always have beautiful action and really graceful despite their size. The centuries of breeding led to a horse that was sound and efficient for work and that is where their action came from.
