Dutch Warmblood

["Maria Berger" <mberger65@hotmail.com>]

After reading all the reactions to Bette's request for a Dutch Warmblood 
mare for lease I feel I have to "defend" the Dutch Warmblood horse. Somebody 
even asked if we ever rode "such a thing". I do not know if this person 
realizes that there are more disciplines than endurance and also other horse 
breeds than arabians. Dutch Warmbloods are the top performers world wide in 
Dressage and show jumping and that certainly proves their quality.
I don't say I just like tall horses. I have a Arab x Mustang that I am 
training for endurance, and he is 15.1 hh. That's the perfect size for what 
I want from him, but I shouldn't enter a dressage show with him.
And just to make things clear: NO, my husband doesn't breed Dutch Warmblood 
mares :)
