About Cobs & Heavy Horses

Heavy horses and substantial cob types suit riders who need a genuine weight-carrier or who prefer a horse with a quieter, less reactive temperament. Check feathering and lower legs carefully for signs of skin conditions including mites and chronic progressive lymphoedema, common in heavy breeds. Many heavy horse breeds maintain dedicated studbooks, and breed society registration can be verified before purchase.
