They're so awesome. And you're right, seeing them on TV, or even in this thread, doesn't convey just how massive they really are. If a quarterhorse makes a race horse look tiny (and they do), if you put one of these next to the quarterhorse, the quarterhorse I would imagine is going to look like a poodle.
The record Clydesdale is 20 hands high, and they get up to a ton +. That's a shitload of horse.
And, of course, they're just beautiful animals as well. I don't think they are ever ridden, but if they were, it would have to be one big SOB to not look like a child up there.

Awesome animals. I got to see them here one time. Very huge! Spoiled rotten too, they have a guy that just walks around and wipes their mouths off if they start to slober around the bit.
They also are trained to walk to the volume of the music. When the music stops, they stop. It's really cool to see them.
Great pics troy!!

They even have the dalmation sitting with the drivers...pretty cool. My father's got a silver miniature of the horses and carriage, and it's spot on. I can't believe they fit in those stalls in the trailer!
Now the question is whether Bud's new Belgium owners are gonna allow the Clydes to continue."Your work is ingenius…it’s quality work….and there are simply too many notes…that’s all, just cut a few, and it’ll be perfect."

Of course the Belgians aren't going to mess with these beautiful beasts. But if they happen to go missing and the Chocolate-loving kiddy-fiddlers happen to be in town, it will be pure coincidence, and not in any way related to the Continental love of horse steaks.So I woke up,rolled over and who was lying next to me? Only Bonnie Langford!
I nearly broke her back
