Things like breeding do have a very big part in making TOP horses. Also training, what they eat, their temperament, personality ect. They have to have the yearning, will and brains for it too. Not nearly any horse could achieve half of what these horses can do. There's a reason why certain stallions and mares are so incredibly popular - everyone wants a foal out of them. People also prefer horses from specific _lines._ So they look out for specific horses that were used for breeding in the breeding history of a horse. For example: Totilas. People really want to have foals produced from Totilas. So they look out for decendants of Totilas to use for breeding. (Using lines for breeding can actually have great importance for several reasons. We have just one or two lliving lines of mares that carry a specific gene, which causes a strawberry-white coat in Finnhorses. No other line can produce a horse coloured like that, so it holds a very great importance. Losing that line means you cannot get that colour back.) The movements themselves are all natural. It's the fact that you can _ask_ the horse to present them in this way tthat makes it so much more diffiicult. A horse with no training in dressage can still do a piaffe in the pasture, but it doesn't make that horse the perfect one. Honestly I could go on and on about this topic, but the short answer is that not every horse can do this, just as not nearly any rider could do this. 😂

@@marialindell9874 well thank you very much for that informative answer fellow Maria!! Maybe even a fellow swede? Ditt namn klingar också väldigt svenskt 😃

@@marianilsson8785 I'm Finnish...

it's a mare

This is dressage.

That posture, the form and consistency!!! Are you kidding me??? Seriously try it and see what happens...I know my spine would immediately simultaneously implode and explode along with my colon and dignity

Dressage when done correctly helps the horse gain better muscle in the neck and hindquarters, it's also fun for both horse and rider (when done correctly)

why wouldn't it be? It is very physically and mentally demanding of rider and horse

stfu the horse must be proud asl it literally trained for this

You don’t know anything about it, so why are you talking?

@@dominicweber I with you you look into your heart and ask yourself if we are really acting in the horses best interest by making them do things like this

@@__effe_ These horses are so well loved and taken care of. Professionally competitive animals have to be incredibly healthy and happy, otherwise it would be impossible to get them to perform like this. City carriages are a different story, but olympic dressage horses are given incredibly luxury treatment after each ride.

@@7ratsinacoat505 Perhaps they would like to witness all the free living horses stressed out and occasionally starving in the wilds of the U.S. or Canadian range land? Would that make them feel better? Horse owners usually pamper and love on our horses.

You know what is animal cruelty? look up edward gal.

LOL. Bet you have pets. Free them, free them from your abuse.
