NOBLE LEGENDS FRIESIANS & VANNERS
ABOUT THE FRIESIAN...
THE FRIESIAN HORSE ORIGINATED IN WESTERN EUROPE IN THE MIDDLE AGES, WHEN IT WAS THE FAVORED HORSE OF THE KNIGHTS. THROUGHOUT THEIR LONG HISTORY, FRIESIANS HAVE BEEN USED AS RACING TROTTERS AND FOR DRIVING, DRESSAGE AND BREEDING. THE FRIESIAN HAS WITHSTOOD MANY CHANGING ENVIRONMENTS AND NOW HAS A VERY PROMISING FUTURE, BOTH IN THE UNITED STATES AND ABROAD.
JET BLACK IS THE PREFERRED COLOR FOR THE FRIESIAN. THEIR FLUID AND SUSPENDED GAITS ARE EMPHASIZED BY THE FEATHERING ON THE LOWER LEGS. THE FRIESIAN'S ELEGANCE IS FURTHER COMPLEMENTED BY ITS LONG AND FLOWING BLACK MANE AND TAIL.
THE FRIESCH PAARDEN STAMBOEK (FPS) IN THE NETHERLANDS REGISTERS ALL FRIESIAN HORSES WORLDWIDE; THE FRIESIAN HORSE ASSOCIATION OF NORTH AMERICA (FHANA) IS THE NORTH AMERICAN REPRESENTATIVE AND WORKS CLOSELY WITH FPS IN ORDER TO FURTHER THE PURITY AND QUALITY OF THE FRIESIAN.
