The Mind of a Fjord While their looks, expressive eyes, and quality movement make the Fjord a wonderful sight, their temperaments are what truly endear people to them. Fjords are very people-orientated and seek out human attention. They have great charm and intelligence. It is believed their “kind and gentle nature, hardiness, and willingness to work” is the best thing about the Fjord horse. They are “very tractable and smart. Fjords are also cooperative, dependable, and calm. They tend to think a bit more before reacting to scary stuff. Their gentle nature makes a well-trained Fjord ideal for therapeutic riding and as a beginner mount. Its important to stress that Fjords are not “born broke” as many seem to believe. “The famous Fjord temperament and character has never changed. This is a goal that is guarded ferociously by every Fjord breeding country in the world,” says Carol Rivoire. “Above all, the Fjord must be people-friendly and an excellent worker.”
