Frequently asked questions
What is a Dutch Horse?
A Dutch Horse, also known as a European Warmblood, is an athletic type of horse that was developed in Holland in the late 1800s. Considered to be one of the best all-around horses for dressage and show jumping competitions, a Dutch Horse has a unique combination of power, agility and beauty. An ideal Dutch Horse should have good conformation - meaning it should appear well-proportioned and balanced from all angles - as well as great temperament and trainability. They are typically between 15 to 17 hands high (5 feet to 6 feet tall at the withers) with long legs and hooves. The most common coat color is bay or chestnut. The breed originates from crossing two other breeds – The Gelderlander Horse (a calm riding horse) and The Thoroughbred (an English racehorse). These crosses were made over many generations to create a saddle horse that could perform dressage movements with precision while still having enough energy for show jumping events. Because of their willingness to learn new tasks quickly, Dutch Horses make excellent mounts for riders looking for an equine companion that can do more than just hack around – they are becoming popular mount choices among both amateur riders looking for quality competition horses on a budget as well professional equestrians alike!
