Brabant Horses, Built for Work

Karen Gruner has raised and worked Brabants since 1993 and has traveled to Belgium three times. She started the American Brabant Association in 1999 and serves as the organization’s secretary/treasurer. In this video Karen gives you a brief history of the Brabant and its relationship with the American Belgian, and shows the breed’s willingness and tractability, as illustrated by a calm 22-month-old filly in her early stages of harness training. Most Brabant stallions in the United States are trained to do field work, ride, and drive. Watch two different stallions at work in the woods and the field, both single and as part of a team. This video will convince you Brabants are well suited for multiple purposes on a small diversified farm. 30 minute DVD
