  CLYDESDALE HORSES
It is clear that the Clydesdale's development was not due to the influence of any single outstanding sire but to the careful breeding of a selection of outstanding horses to the strong, heavy, but relatively small native mares of the area.
Otago, with its Scottish settlements, became the breeding centre for draught horses, and not surprisingly the Clydesdale predominated.
Despite its size (it is one of the world’s largest horses) the Clydesdale is an active horse with a clean, bright movement, combined with a mild temperament.

 Clydesdale Breed Description
The Clydesdale is native to the Lanarkshire district, or Clyde River Valley of Scotland, which was once known as "Clydesdale." The breed had its origins in the 18th century, when breeders began to cross local Lanarkshire horses with Flemish stallions in an effort to produce large working horses.
The matriarch of the Clydesdale breed was purchased in 1808 as a two year old, and the lineage of nearly every living Clydesdale can be traced back to her.
Clydesdales served in World War I and many were imported to Australia and New Zealand, South America, Russia, Italy, Austria, Canada and the United States.

 World of Horses - The Clydesdale
The Clydesdale Horse Society was established in 1877, almost a century and a half after the breed first began to evolve.
Early drawings of Clydesdales show a chunky, solid coloured horse, short and close coupled and by the time photography came in, early examples were also mainly dark coloured horses with four dark legs, still short coupled and very powerful.
The vast majority of Clydesdales are solid coloured bay or brown with four white legs, the long, silky feathering around the feet being a distinct feature, with soft, not coarse hair.
