Sad to see how diminished the breed as a whole is.

Thank you for sharing.🐴🐴
Wonderful video!
Lovely light draft breed.
I’d love to have a few. And I’m partial to red heads💕. However the economy is very bad for livestock now
I have no clue about the breeding standards of Suffolk Punch horses, just about my own horses (Paint and Noriker, the later also beeing a smaller Austrian coldblood breed). In general, when you talk about good 'confirmation' in a horse, the hind end should ideally be the same hight as the withers - at least that is what I thought and what I was taught. If the hind end is (much) higher, a horse has most of its weight on the forehand.
The stallion at the beginning of this video stood at least a handwith higher in the hind end than at the withers, I guess. Is this something unique to that particular stallion? Or do all Suffolks share this trade? And if yes, why?
This is not critisism, just honest curiosity. I always like to learn the how's and why's behind things I see.
Excuse my English, it is not my native language.
Could be a matter of maturity. He looks even to me, and a horse's back shouldn't be flat even with the shoulders, because of the muscle in the hindquarters; that will stand up above the spine. In a draught horse the quarters will be more muscled.
I'm interested in owning one of these for my farm.
They are willing workers and kind. They are a rare breed in their native country of England, actually in danger of becoming extinct. That would be a shame.
Where does punch come in
The Suffolk Horse is also known as a Suffolk Punch because of its stout and solid build
I spose because there endangered there expensive breed ?
