FOR SALE –
DUTCH DRAFT HORSES
Through my contacts with leading breeders of the
Dutch Draft Horse here in Holland, we can match virtually any demand for a heavy
working horse, both untrained or well experienced in any type of work. The Dutch
Draft Horse excels in reliability, the will to work and its tremendous pulling
power. The Dutch Drafts are used in agriculture, forestry and for pulling
carriages. Due to their docile temperament they are undisturbed by any form of
today’s traffic. Also, the breed is most suitable for improving the working
abilities of any other breed. We can offer mares, sires and geldings in a wide
spectrum of colours.
