Dun Norwegian Fjord Stallion Wyoming Zip's Commander Black Quarter Horse Stallion
Pines Zane of A2Z is a 2000 Norwegian Fjord Stallion. We purchased Zane as a weanling foal from The Downing's in Illinois.

We had gone in search of Fjord mares and instead fell for this little fellow with the unusual Grey color and Zebra stripes running down his legs. He was a good fit with our Fjord herd and has crossed well with our Thor daughters.

The Norwegian Fjord horse was domesticated in Norway over 2,000 years ago. They were used to pull Viking ships up the Fjords of Norway and also taken on the ships to be ridden by the Viking warriors in battle. Fjords played an important part in the farming of the mountain meadows as well as herding sheep and goats. At the end of WWII, the breed had dwindled to about 600 horses because so many were eaten by the forces occupying Norway. The Norwegian government has taken over the Fjord horse breeding program and instituted strict regulation.

Zane is a good representative of the Breed. He stands 14 Hands tall and is the unusual Grey Dun color. Most are the Brown Dun color. His head is well defined with a broad flat forehead, large eyes, small and alert ears. His neck is well muscled and crested, body short coupled with good depth. He has the large heart girth and well developed muscles. Norwegian Fjord's are known for their kind and gentle nature and are truly People oriented. Zane is all of the above.
A2Z Thor is a 1987 Dutch bred Norwegian Fjord Stallion. His Dam was imported from Holland in foal to the important Scandinavian
Stallion Bjorgard. Bjorgard was by another champion stallion Astrix. Thor was born here in Wyoming and has spent his entire life with us. He and his foals have made us true believers of the Fjord horse breed. Anyone looking for the 'Family' horse is on the right track with the Fjords. They average 14 hands in height and are uniformly dun colored with a dark dorsal stripe running from the forelock, through the mane, center of the back, to the tip of the tail. The mane is trimmed to stand erect, emphasizing the graceful curve of the neck and the dramatic stripe. Many have zebra stripes running down the legs.

Thor has been used to pack elk, driven many carriages to and from weddings, worked calves at ranch brandings, carried a flag in the 4th of July parades in Cody, Wy. and willingly performed any task asked of him. He passes down his even temperament and good conformation. His foals have won at the Norwegian Fjord show in Libby, Montana and are being ridden in a drill team which performs at shows and rodeos including Cheyenne Frontier Days. Thor's offspring can be found in states from Wisconsin to Washington and south to Arkansas. We cannot say enough about this superior little horse.
