fresh pics, but i am a little disturbed about the comments! haha freisians are fantastic, i think its a shame there's a lighter type now, they deserve to be heavier like classical coach horses

Yeah I agree with you, though it is a bit scary when you go to shows and see little 4 or 5 year olds riding saddle seat on a HUMUNGO Friesian... though I would probably do the same thing!

There are special kid saddles, they are super cute! Once there was a horse being bad at a show and it was wearing a kid saddle, but the trainer just jumped on and rode him around. It was really funny.

I hate it when I have to use a saddle with big saddle flaps, my legs are kinda short!

LOL I bet it was! There is this little girl at my stable, the youngest one there, and she insists on riding this huge American Indian mare that doesn't behave all that well! She handles her beautifully though!

aww, friesians are the best Horse breed, my old gelding was 16.1 and he was stunning but due to an old injury he couldnt do too much but as much as i tried to keep him steady he would always find someway of doing something to prove the vet wrong like the vet said he will never canter, well we used to canter and gallop then he said he will never jump, we used to jump about a metre not that high but for him it was high enough!!! lol they always aim to please =] his mane was the best though, used to be really long till some stupid girl who didnt like me hacked a big chunk out of it, so i couldnt show him any more =[

Wait- why did she chop a big hunk out of his mane? Why couldn't you just even it out? The pony at my barn had the cutest mane that stood up straight if you pulled it up, and then for a show they docked it! I was sooo mad!
