Belgian Horses
A Belgian is a big, gentle draft horse known for a calm, cooperative, willing nature. Most stand 16 to 18 hands and weigh 1,800 to 2,400 pounds. Developed for farm work and hauling, Belgians still shine as steady workhorses, and their easygoing temperament makes these gentle giants a pleasure to be around.
