Description
A pair of Percheron draft horses are pulling a carriage, filled with tourist, to see the beautiful downtown and historic distinct of Wilmington, North Carolina USA.
The Percheron is a Draft Horse or Heavy horse. The Draft horse is also known as Dray Horse. 'Dray' is a word derived from the Anglo-Saxon term for 'to haul' or 'to draw'.
Draft horses are large and hardy, much heavier and broader than the light horses. The breeds in this horse class are referred to as cold blood breeds, in reference to their quiet and calm temperament. They are heavy in the body and strong legged.
Thank you for looking at my Photography!!!
