Just beautiful! Seeing them brings me back to my native Germany. My grandfather had 2 fjords Jetta and Lotta. 😍

I believe over weight and growing out a long mane on an older one may cause the crest to bend over I do not believe every wild fjord horse had a broken crest because they had long manes I feel that if they have been long since birth or weaning that it would be fine I have seen alot of people with stallions having long manes and have no issues with their crest!

The girl didn't mention any details about their nature (characteristics). The Norwegian fjordhorses sometimes are not only lazy but also stubborn. Sometimes they are far from trying to please the rider like the Icelanders. This is a trait that fjordhorse breeders should eliminate. Perhaps this property is the main reason why there are e. g. in Germany only so few fjordhorses compared to Icelanders and also the main reason why the fjordhorse population in Norway has decreased from 70.000 to only 7.000 (within the last 70 - 80 years?). In any case I couldn't get along well with my fjordhorse in 22 years.

The fjordhorses main use was as workhorse at many norwegian farms until the 1950's when tractors started to take over the work for real. Also popular in the old days for transport of tourists, packing horses. Then the horses went over to be pleasure horses mostly, some paking horses and the number naturally decreased from tens of thousands to 6-7000 today. Some of them got some less good sides as you mention, but the positive sides far outweight the negative. There are many more fjordhorses abroad as of now, than in Norway.

Perhaps you were the problem? Fjord horses are far from stubborn. They are kind and diligent. They want to please their riders, but they also want the rider to earn their respect. They test riders because they are independent and if they don’t trust you they take the lead. That’s not stubborn or malicious that’s simply a survival strategy of one of the oldest and purest horsebreeds. When you earn their respect and trust they are the best pals in the world. And they are very kind. It’s no surprise that they are the best therapy horses! I have a fjord mare of my own. She’s the best horse in the world. She worked for over 15 years in therapy and helped a lot of people. Now she’s my everything. After a really bad riding accident I was a really anxious rider but she helped me overcome my fears. I know six fjord horses and everyone of them is absolutely wonderful. By the way, there are a lot of fjord horses in Germany (I live in Germany) and it’s a very popular breed here. There is a riding school in my neighborhood which has only fjord horses for school horses and they are totally overcrowded because so many people want to get lessons there.
