He doesnβt mind standing next to mares-----he is really focused on his work when anyone is riding him ππͺπ» He is really good with kids π¬π---check out the pics of Douwe with a very small 4 yr old child in his paddock----the stallion with his boy!" This is one RARE find!! Its not often that we are able to acquire GRAND PRIX level friesians, and we will deliver Douwe as a stallion OR a gelding--- your choice! Champion driving horse, competing and WINNING in tandem, unicorn, double (pairs) and winning a TON up until he was 8 yrs old, at which point we turned his focus into being the BEST DRESSAGE SPORTHORSE around. This is one EASY GOING stallion--he adjusts himself to his rider---not a spooky/hot/hard to handle guy. The KFPS recognizes his talent and has given him a license for breeding as a foalbook stallion, B Book 1---which means in countries where there arent many approved stallions, such as Africa, Australia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, etc, you can apply for a breeding license for Douwe, and his foals can be registered (he has rec'd a license for "foalbook stallion" based on performance in the sport). That said, Douwe has not been used for breeding in Europe---this is a CHAMPION sporthorse that excels at anything he puts his mind to! Douwe was measured by the Dutch Judges as 166 cm (16.1 hands tall), and has had the same owner in the Netherlands since he was 3 yrs old, up until Janna purchased him in July 2020.
