The Percheron horse is a heavy draft horse historically used as a battle mount at war.

Temperament
The Percheron has a very pleasing disposition and is proud, alert and intelligent. It is generally a very gentle horse, well-suited for driving and is a strong and willing worker.Activities
Percherons are now used for logging, driving, and farm work but are also valued as pleasure driving horses, riding horses, and as competitors in both regular horse shows and in draft horse showing.Percheron.ca: [1]
