Langwater Footprint - Clydesdale Stallion |
This is Otha Wyrick with his Clydesdale stallion, Langwater Footprint, at the 1930 Chicago International Exposition. In the 1920s and 1930s the Clydesdale was a compact horse smaller than the Shire, Percheron and Belgian draft horse... Langwater Footprint is a leading champion Clydesdale Stallion of that time period and an great example of a compact Clydesdale... beginning in the 1940s breeding Clydesdales were selected to produce taller horses that looked more impressive in parades and horse shows...today a Clydesdales can stand 16 to 18 hands high and weigh up to 2,200 pounds...
