What Is A "Cold Blood"¯ Horse?

Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Large muscular horses bred for heavy agricultural work such as ploughing or for haulage are known as cold bloods. This is because they have not only been bred for their strength but also for their temperament. Cold bloods are calm, steady and not easily spooked. They are usually physically more muscular and thickset in appearance and many breeds of draft horse such as the Percheron and the Clydesdale have distinctive feathered fetlocks and long manes. In contrast warm  bloods are typified by the stereotypical Arab stallion, nostrils flaring, hooves raking the ground, horses quivering and ready for action. Although this is clichĆ© the warm bloods evolved through breeding heavier horses with Arabian horses and thoroughbreds. Warm bloods are now the high performance engines of the equestrian sporting world and reign as three day eventing champions, Olympic medal winners and show jumping stars.
