Coldblood Horses
We have all heard the terms warmblood, hotblood and coldblood horses. So just what does that mean?
Generally, when it pertains to coldbloods they are much heavier and slower, their temperaments are more stable and they are quieter then their counterparts. In my research I read that these horses have no Arab blood in their ancestry; however, I am not so sure about that. Below you will find a list of many coldblood horse breeds although it might not be complete.
