The Shire Horse Society
The Shire is a powerful draft breed that stands around 16 - 17 hands. They are known for their feathering on the legs, which shouldn't be trimmed. Shires have a muscular neck and body, made for heavy pulling or work. They are very similar to Clydesdales in appearance, but don't have the typical white big patterns. Shire horses are known to be kind, docile and level headed, making them great dressage horses if not used for heavy work.
