The Canadian
horse is not a very well known horse today. However
that was not always the case. It is nicknamed the "Little
Iron Horse" because it is an excellent utility
horse that is extremely hardy in a variety of situations.
At one time, it was a very popular horse due to the
fact that they possess strength, intelligence and a
gentle dispostion... Even though is is a bit shorter
than other horses, it is still very powerful and able
to carry more weight than one would think. It has very
strong, powerful legs. The Canadian horse is usually
seen with a black coat, but can also be seen in bay,
chestnut, and brown. They have a luxurious mane and
tail.
