Haffies are fun little horses! Plus I’m Austrian (I have relatives in the Tyrol region) so I’m kind of drawn to the breed. I saw them all over the Alps when I was in Austria. Fun little horses, sometimes a bit naughty (kind of a pony attitude sometimes), tons of energy. Kind of reminds me of the Morgan horse.

The only problem I have with this article is the picture of the overly tight nose band!! Take a close look, it looks like it could cut off the horses air!! This makes me cringe for that poor horse.

Really cute horse…this is a breed I’m interested in learning more about. How high can they jump?

I love my haffie Cisco! He’s laid back but has that get-up-and-go when I ask for it! Plus he’s great with my son who is 2yrs old, they are buddies!

I would have to say my Haflinger Angus is the best horse I have ever had! So calm and kind with a can-do attitude! I LOVE Haflingers!!!

My Haflinger’s bad!! She’s a good jumper though & a lot of fun, but sometimes frustrating. Taught me most of what I know about staying on through tantrums & reading their emotions. She makes it known when she’s done! Beautiful, though. Love her.

I have owned a Haflinger for 3 years now — actually she owns me!! She is a wonderful partner in all pursuits! We trail ride, Dressage and jump. She loves it all!! They are very intelligent horses, thus easily bored. So mixing it up is key. She’s the Belle of the barn. Every one who meets her loves her and she happily stands for the attention and admiration!
