Douwe is an 8 year old Friesian gelding. He came over to the US from Holland when he was 5 years old and was previously trained to drive. Douwe knows basic work under saddle but needs work on throughness and balance. He is currently schooling Training Level. As with many Friesians, Douwe needs to strengthen his hind legs to help him carry more from the hind rather than pulling from the front. He is a quick learner, has been doing a lot of cantering and galloping in the fields and also some jumping. Douwe is Sandra's first horse. "I consider Douwe the dream horse that I have waited 20 years for." -Sandra
