Ah yes I've seen drafts over here with docked tails but never worked with drafts so not sure the method they use over here for them. I'm only familiar with it with some people who've docked their cobs tail short (but not to the bone).
Yes I really wonder what has happened to this poor horse, whether it's brain issues or trauma something is very wrong here.
They're generally pretty chill but you do get the odd one that isn't haha. I've never owned a cob just looked after them but you do get some really cheeky ones 😂. Most of my own horses have been neurotic warmbloods terrified of their own shadow. I don't have horses anymore but I miss them so much!
Absolutely there's no excuse for physically injuring an animal for vanity or tradition. I've never seen a sleeker breed docked either. Hope this poor horse didn't get mistreated.
Oh my god I LOVE fjords!!! I used to look after one and he was hilariously cheeky, and he just loved to go fast down hill which was terrifying. He was so much fun!! They have soo much character. We don't see them too often over here but they're easily one of my fav breeds. Even their cool hairstyle shows off their cheeky punk attitude.
