Black Clydesdale Prancing

[lilmissvix92]

what a fcking beautiful creature!!!!!!!!!

[tcddc4]

Beautiful horse!

[Mikeandwendy74]

Only an asshole braids a horses mane.....sad really...people putting horses in shows....peppering the tail to keep it proud....marbling the hooves to make them dance.....cutting nerves in the ears to make the ears point up always...disgusting.

[littlebaypennin]

quick question: Like in AQHA halter showing and AHA are manners unimportant just the horses build that is being judged?

[Yazora]

Now THAT'S a horse!

[MangoRoX87]

I laughed when he poked him with the stick...lol.

[animals4life31]

He looks like a horse I rode but he wasnt a Clydesdale

[FernandoTorrera]

GORGEOUS drools on laptop then dies.

[patslark]

I wish we could stop tail docking on draft horses. This guy is gorgeous however.



[Nizingur]

@patslark Yeah, I feel so sorry for those guys in summer. Tail docking is illegal here in Scandinavia!

[jaydahsxcreator]

Oh yeah, that horse knows how awesome he is. ^^ beautiful animal.

[blackmistwolf]

omg i wanna Clydesdale cuz these r huge!

[Cossy1065]

gorg horse but i hate its tail sorry but it soo horrid =/

[1tylerF]

so what's with it's mane and tail? I have honestly never seen that.

[classiccobs]

very nice breed type !

[claoufaeng]

I want that horse

[Tepadj]

so beautiful!

[clayhorse1]

:0 that is my dream shire i love it. beautiful horse.(shire)

[erintubb]

@clayhorse1 Clydesdale, not shire.

[angelgirl7473]

whats that thing he keeps poking the horse with?

[angelgirl7473]

horses are measured By HANDS not feet!

[sunshine777888]

@angelgirl7473 I was comparing the horse to the guy and the fence which typically are measured in feet, and I have no clue how to do hand to foot conversions! But thanks for pointing that out.

[angelgirl7473]

@sunshine777888 Ok

[CHEVYedsf]

@sunshine777888 Think of it this way. 1 foot = 3 hands.  1 hand is equal to 4 inches.

[littlemrstiner]

@sunshine777888 onehand=fourinches

[EquineGall]

@sunshine777888 There's 4 inches in a hand and 12 inches in a foot so you basically divide the number of hands by 3 and you'll have it in feet. same with other way around you times it by 3.

[1redifredi]

@sunshine777888 - A HAND is 4 inches and 5 feet equals 15 hands (a common size for saddle horses and the old cavalry standard - minimum). Six feet equals eighteen hands and this horse MIGHT be that tall. Speculating a lot but that man doesn't seem to have the body type of a really tall guy.

They are measured at the withers - fairly distinctive in this horse - the transition from the neck to the back.

17 1/2 - 18 hands is a fair guess based on the assumption that the handler is 6'.

[sunshine777888]

@1tylerF I love how you have to resort to name calling. In no way are you changing the effectiveness of your sentence by adding "RE RE" at the end. If anything you are detracting from it. And besides the point I have already been informed (and politely might I add) four times before you did.

[1tylerF]

@sunshine777888 I know, my apologies, one of my friends had used my youtube account. I actually don't know exactly what he said however I know it was him, saying he likes the word "re re"

[1555hanah]

@1tylerF ... a foot is an inch?? since when? last time i checked a foot = 12 inches now what was that about using your brain?

[1tylerF]

@1555hanah like i said, this was my friend who commented on this video previously...and obviously he meant "a foot is inches" not "a foot is an inch"

[DeathKitty123456]

@1tylerF a foot is not 1 inch... its 12... just letting you know (Y)

[nucks93]

@sunshine777888 Every 4 inches is a hand. So, if the horse was 6 feet tall, (6 feet =72 inches. 72/4=18hh)

[DarkNinjaXD]

@angelgirl7473 Even though they are measured in hands you can EASILY convert feet to hands. Simple math for all horse people. ;)

[Nizingur]

@angelgirl7473 Actually, here in Europe horses are measured in CENTIMETRES. The hand system makes no sense logically. 16.1, 16.2, 16.3, 17? Those decimals make no SENSE! Measuring both horses and humans in centimetres is actually totally utilitarian. I'm 172 cm, my horse is 164. Comparisons made easy =)

[nutter666f]

@Nizingur not in all of Europe, in the UK they are mostly measured in hands

[jonty811]

How tall is the man in this vid.. then maybe we could get a relatively good idea how big the horse is.

[sunshine777888]

@jonty811 @CrimsonCompassion Hello, I'm not sure how tall the guy or the horse were because I don't really remember precisely. But I think the wall was about 3-4 feet so that would probably make him around 5-6 feet tall. Which in theory would make the Horse about 6-7 feet tall, but if he was standing on his hind legs (like the guy) he would be really tall, and intimidating. I hope this sort of answers your questions. Have a good day, Peace.

[Nizingur]

@sunshine777888 The guy doesn't actually look very tall. I was surprised by how small this horse is for a Clydesdale!

[CrimsonCompassion]

Does anyone know how tall the horse is ?

[LadySedim]

Wow what a handsome boy!

[HorseshoeStables11]

Gorgeous horse!!!

[GeorgiaC117]

What was he doing with the Clydesdale's shoulder??

[unavailabletoyu]

@GeorgiaC117 He's asking him to "park out" as it's called. Basically, he's asking him to set his feet a certain way that pleases the judges more.

[GeorgiaC117]

@unavailabletoyu o ryt :P I was a wee bit confused it looked likee he was hittin Wee clydy as im startin 2 call the horse! ;) Which is alryt if he/she was misbehaving but i has concerned because Clydey wasn't doin anything wrong :)

[Tat2sbitch]

Wow, he's lovely.

[Samsam2992]

All of the "fuzzy" (as my nephew calls them) draft breeds are so beautiful! There is something to be said for the slender, elegant breeds like the Arabian or the Akhal-Teke, but nothing beats the prance of a Clydesdale or Gypsy Cob.

[Taylorluvshorses]

Why do they have those things on their manes?

[molsen4960]

@Taylorluvshorses To show the horses so you can see the muscle tone in the neck and legs. :)

[usanj69]

Gorgeous animal. Nice training, too!



[DubDubArtiste]

What a beautiful horse! Enjoy him!

[heavenshorses123]

aww he's cute or SHE she or he is adorible

[Mabh95]

A perfect example of a shining sabino Clydesdale. I prefer Percherons, but they're still an absolutely gorgeous breed, and he represents them well.

[rosskay]

I love that piebald face!

[xoDarcyTheMarexo]

It's to beautiful... it makes me want a Clydesdale!

[1horseylover4]

hey! listen EVERYONE who is ragging on the AMAZING United States that i call home! you are talking about a small portion of the united states, THE LAND OF THE FREE where we can have our OWN opinions. i have also wondered how a horse would taste because i would hear about it but i would never think to DO that. and let me tell you that just because you live in another country doesnt mean that your not ignorant. you are such a jackA for saying that! i wish that when you ever come to the US you die.

[sunshine777888]

Thanks to all of you for supporting this video to over 20,000 views, peace.

~Sunshine777888

[8HorseFreak8]

you all are gross! i would never eat a horse if my life depended on it!!!

[sunshine777888]

@dioioego In the United States it is considered illegal to slaughter horses for human consumption so therefore no one could tell you from The US. But it is sad that the first thing you think of when seeing such a beautiful horse is I wonder how that would taste.

[sunshine777888]

@dioioego I understand sarcasm, but your comment is not so much sarcasm as it is dark humor.

[dioioego]

@sunshine777888 I give you that, it was dark humor, not sarcasm... and having said that, I'm vegetarian since I was 16

[equine247]

@dioioego You don't joke about that. That's sick

[dioioego]

@equine247 you guys should calm down and get a fucking sense of humor honestly..... just saying.

[dioioego]

@equine247 and I bet many of you moaning about my joke eat and appreciate the taste of other animals..

[Samsam2992]

@dioioego I've never eaten horse myself (It would be like eating a pet) but I've heard from friends in France where it's a bit more common that it's very sweet, like veal.

[dioioego]

@Samsam2992 I'm vegetarian since I was 16, I don't know much about meat but I think some people would eat human meat if they were given the chance to. I saw this documentary about people in China who eat dogs and cats. Revolting.

Having said this, people need to loosen up a bit more! It was a joke! You don't need to go like 'In the US it is considered illegal to slaughter horses'...well, it seems still legal for somebody in the US to slaughter humans in foreign countries for OIL! Get real.

[kac65]

@sunshine777888 There are restaurants that serve horse in the US.

[1tylerF]

@sunshine777888 not since obama signed the bill for ALLOWING it for horses to be slaughtered for human consumption....what an asshole... :/

[phyllislanejackass]

@dioioego Thats sick -_-

[dioioego]

@dioioego cmon, it's funny!!

[SophiaThePumpkinKing]

@dioioego You disgusting! Why would you want to eat such a beautiful animal?!

[dioioego]

@SophiaThePumpkinKing uhm...wait a second, think about what you've just said: how many other animals do YOU eat? Are you saying that u r better than me because you eat other animals? You are a dumb loser.

[HungerGames2425]

@dioioego I hope not!!! that is so wrong!!

[cactuss11]

what a beautiful horse!!!

[DonkeyDanni]

what a beautiful animal

[DonkeyDanni]

what a stunning animal

[ei8190]

omg clydesdale are like my new fave horse then the arabians

[ThexMinE]

Damn... did they cut the tail ??? o0

[HuNtErJuMpEr4LiFe14]

wtf with the stick

[RidingnJumpingIslife]

hahah the handler looks terified..i would be with a clydsdale too!

[CHEVYedsf]

When you start poking the horse, the best thing is direct, steady pressure and don't let up until the horse listens.

[Bra1nDanGeR]

красивый конь...плохие хозяины

[Alishondra]

That is so.. wow.. 

[xXdarkStarXx11]

i dont like it when they have their tails tied up but thats just mah opinion xD

[slb928]

Absolutely a beautiful horse!

[PepperPony76]

what a gorgeous face!!

[tashafangs]

he'll gray out as he gets older

[sunshine777888]

@tashafangs Most likely nothing stands the test of time. You can not stop the flow of time, but you can certainly live in the moment.

[tashafangs]

@sunshine777888 He's gorgeous btw. He just looks really young.

[zorachild9]

@sunshine777888 i feel sad for you, here, ll help you get rid of the trolls! :D *hands sun a bazooka* there you go!

[chrisherself]

@sunshine777888 LOL pretty sure he meant simply that his coat will become interspersed with white hairs as he gets older; many Clydesdales do this. Not that he'll be less lovely.

[chrisherself]

@chrisherself Or she...

[CHEVYedsf]

@tashafangs I see no hint of grey in him. There are some alot of black horses that do not grey out. If he hasnt started to grey at this point, he probably wont ever.

[Horsegurl4life123]

I was at that show! But I think I missed that part. :(

[skoozeroni]

Beautiful horse
