The nature of the Norwegian Fjord Horse is one of its greatest qualities.  Possessing a charming, gentle disposition has earned the Fjord a place to call home with many families.  Their strong body and extraordinary power enables the breed to be used for all types of riding, driving, and draft work.  Ninety percent of all Fjords are brown dun in color.  The other ten percent consist of red, grey, white, or yellow duns.  Fjords also feature the primitive markings, which include zebra stripes on the legs and a dark dorsal strip that runs down their neck, back, and tail.
