This breed has their characteristic curly fur only in the winter months. With this adaptation they can easily stay warm during the cold. Come spring, they shed their curly coats and become as smooth haired as any other horse. But it is for their frizzy fur that we love them the most!

This horse is considered a nice and very hardy animal. They can withstand very cold temperatures down to -40 ° C. Easy to train, they are great companions for horse enthusiasts.
