    They are durable for any condition and a smart one will continue to amaze you as you work them. They never stop learning.

    I would love it if you would allow your videos to be captioned. People that are hard of hearing/deaf love horses, too!

      Explain why they have limited uses, they can be used to so many things yes Morgan’s are amazing but I do believe that qhs are the most versatile horse they are used for so many things, just like the video said

    It's unkind to try to force traditionally built QHs into a chess-piece dressage frame. They are not built for it, are uncomfortable, and don't need that technique to move the weight onto the hind end.

    Sorry but I plan it horses are the only reason Iceland and Icelandic countries yeah sorry there's also the Icelandic pony who is similar to the Icelandic course and then there's also those other horses too let's see you know the I think they rang from Asia but they use them also in the Icelandic country because of the thick coat they get yeah a person do all your research because you just insulted the quarter horse

      Huh? How the heck did she insult the Quarter Horse?!?! All she did was mention at the end another video she must have made. That doesn't "insult" the QH.
      I think you need to do your research. The Icelandic horse is the SAME THING as the Icelandic pony. The breed is often pony sized, but it is registered as, and referred to as, a horse. And as the narrator said, the Icelandic horse is the ONLY horse allowed in Iceland. Iceland banned more than 1000 years ago the importation of any other horse breeds. While the Icelandic horse is related genetically to the Mongolian horse -- and to British pony breeds -- it is a separate, pure breed in its own right, and is uniquely 5-gaited.

      Yall do know the "best horse" thing is an opinion. They are all good for specific things, they were all bred for certain discipline. Stop saying one is better because of opinion based on emotion, just admit you prefer one because it's your favorite.

      A real dingaling in temperament, great at endurance but surpassed by other breeds in most endeavors.
