Clydesdale – beautiful breed of farm horse.

Clydesdale, heavy draft-horse breed that originated in Lanarkshire, Scotland, near the River Clyde. The breed was improved about 1715 by mating a Flemish stallion with local mares.

The Clydesdale averages 17 to 18 hands (173 to 183 cm) tall and 2,000 pounds (900 kg) in weight. The colour is usually bay, dark brown, or black, with prominent white markings.

Noted for its high leg action while walking or trotting, the breed is characterized by feather (long hair) on the legs, attractive heads, and well-formed legs and feet.
