Welcome To Royal Knight Friesians
We are Located at the Windy Ridge Ranch in Goodland Kansas.
Friesian History The Friesian horse is unique, truly a breed to be proud of. It’s developed from a very old breed which was inherent to all of Western Europe. It's the only horse native to Holland. Historically speaking, the Friesian horse has been influenced by eastern bloodlines and has often been threatened with extinction. At one time, the number of registered Friesian Horses became even less than one thousand and the fate of the breed was uncertain. In fact, the number of Friesian Stallions reputedly was reduced to only three, prior to World War I. Thanks to the dedication of Friesian horse lovers and Breeders in Friesland, a northern province of Holland, one can still appreciate the many facets of the Friesian horse today. Breeding is done under STRICT guidelines such as selection, performance testing and classification to ensure the quality of the breed remains VERY high. Inbreeding is tracked closely The "Friesch Paarden Stambook" (Friesian Horse Registry) dates back to 1879. UNTIL 1943, BOTH purebred AND crossbred Friesian Horses were registered. The Friesian horse is enjoying a revival. He is a beautiful sight in the show ring. His shiny black coat, flying mane and tail, and high action form is a memorable picture. The Friesian is, by nature, a talented show horse. Without a doubt, the black coat of the Friesian will impress you at first sight. Bays and grays occurred earlier in the breed, but now black is the only recognized color. A small white forehead star is also allowed. Other obvious characteristics are the long, heavy mane and tail and the Shire-like fetlock hair. The modern day Friesian has enjoyed it's share of publicity, regularly being seen in movies such as LadyHawke, Interview with a Vampire, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Disney's Tall Tales and Mask of Zorro (This information has been gathered from many sources) FPS, FHANA
