As the name suggests, the Icelandic horse originates from Iceland. Icelandics have distinctive gaits, as they can tölt and pace in addition to walk, trot, and canter. They are recognized by their short but strong neck, which can make standard rugs a poor fit.
QHP for the Icelandic horse
A bridle needs to fit your horse well, and an Icelandic horse’s head has unique proportions. That’s why QHP’s collection includes a specially designed Icelandic bridle. The saddle also differs from standard saddles, so QHP offers a saddle pad shaped specifically for Icelandic saddles.
Due to the Icelandic horse’s shorter, stronger neck, standard rugs don’t always fit properly. For this reason, QHP has created a special Icelandic fly rug to protect against insect bites. There’s also a cozy fleece rug and a halter available in the colors of the Icelandic flag.
