*The Clydesdale is a breed of draft horse derived from the farm horses of Clydesdale, Scotland, and named after that region. The breed was originally used for agriculture and haulage, and is still used for draft purposes today. Beginning in the 1940s, breeding animals were selected to produce taller horses that looked more impressive in parades and shows.
Today, the Clydesdale stands 16 to 18 hands (64 to 72 inches) high and weighs 1,800 to 2,000 pounds. Some mature males are larger, standing taller than 18 hands and weighing up to 2,200 pounds. Many buyers pay a premium for bay and black horses, especially those with four white legs and white facial markings.The Budweiser Clydesdales are some of the most famous Clydesdales.
