The single most distinctive universal quality of the Friesian breed is its temperament. That is the reason that Friesian stallions make a great complement to any breed of mare. We have been actively crossbreeding our Friesian stallions for the past ten years and we can say with certainty that the Friesian passes on its temperament to its crossbred offspring.

Some Friesian owners and organizations believe that crossbreeding should be prohibited because it will lead to the demise of the breed. We certainly understand that position and as a result we will never crossbreed a Friesian mare. As long as Friesian mares are not crossbred, the breed will always remain intact. We have many examples from our crossbreeding program where the cross is used in competition and we know they can be exceptional in whatever sport they are used in. The intelligence of the Friesian becomes apparent in the cross’s willingness and ability to train.

By taking the Friesian qualities we love so and mixing them with qualities from other breeds, we create a very unique blend of athleticism, intelligence, and universal ability- a horse suitable for nearly every discipline.  



Below are a few examples of crossbred Friesian foals, sired by our stallions:
