Schleich 13809 Clydesdale mare

If a Clydesdale needs new horseshoes, it can be a chore for the blacksmith. The horseshoes are not only very large, but also weigh 2.5 kilos. That's four to five times heavier than the horseshoes needed by warmblood or thoroughbred horses. Although Clydesdales are large and especially heavy, they move very elegantly. They are known for lifting their legs energetically and high. That is why they are not only used as draft horses, but also in shows and parades.
