The Georgian Grande breed has its beginnings back in the 1970s, and the International Georgian Grande Horse Registry was founded in 1994. In 2010, a pony division was added. The Georgian Grande is a big, beautiful horse that results in the crossing of the American Saddlebred with an approved breed of draft horse. The breeds draft breeds acceptable are: American Cream, Belgian, Clydesdale, Friesian, Gypsy Cob (Vanner), Percheron, Registered Drum Horses, and Shires. We don't currently have any Georgian Grande Ponies, but hope to remedy that! The ponies are a cross between the American Saddlebred, and one of these approved pony breeds: Dales, Fell, Friesian (small, pony-sized), Gypsy Pony, Haflinger, or Welsh Cob. We are excited to offer our Georgian Grande herd for your consideration. We breed for a horse that has the look of a draft cross combined with the elegance and smooth way of going of the American Saddlebred. They are spirited but gentle, and can be used in any riding discipline. They must have at least a two-word name to be registered.
Because we here at Trumpet Farm also love science fiction and fantasy, we name most of our Georgian Grandes after things in those communities, such as Doctor Who and Star Wars. We would love for you to follow in our tradition, but it is not required.
