Rurik is a red dun stallion that carries grey. At 5 years old he measured 14.0 1/2 hands tall with 8.25″ (22.5 cm) cannon bones. He produced 15 foals for us, and since we retained 2 of his sons and 2 of his daughters for breeding, we decided to offer him to another breeder. He is now a Canadian!
We bought Rurik as a weanling and raised him here. Like all of our Fjord stallions, he was a wonderful, sweet, and easy to manage boy. We had him trained to ride and drive, and he was very easy to train.
Here he’s sharing his hay with the wooly sheep.
Rurik’s movement is beautiful, and he passed that on to so many of his foals, along with his really handsome head and dark body shade.
