Holy shit! That's a horse! My biggest horse is just shy of 17 hands and he's pretty big for a Paint.

Beautiful Stallion!

I am afraid of horses! And allergic! :(

Its not that simple, the stallion show is once a year in the Netherlands, its not held here in the US, so all stallions that qualify to attend have to get flown there.
The friesian stallion show is the main judging to see which stallions get approved for breeding. Those approved for breeding can only breed to approved, FHANA/FPS registered friesian mares. There are only about 60 approved Stallions in the netherlands and 20 here in the US, judging is very harsh.
Since my guy did not become an "approved stallion", because of his quality he was awarded Ster and I can cross breed him.
I can change his registry to the FPZ (the german registry) and take him for approval which I might do.
The FPS (world friesian association) is very strict and complicated, but with the right horse can be very profitable.
the Sire of my colt bred 246 mares last season at $1500 a pop - do the math.

What a beautiful looking horsey.

I LOVE ANIMALS, GOOD FOR YOU................ :thumbsup
