Clydesdale Horse Pictures Biography

Source(Gogle.com.pk)
   Perhaps the unsung stars of "Bonanza" are the horses themselves. They are not like that of those who could perform such miracles as opening doors, sniff out the bad guys and untie knots. Not the typical horse that was used to perform in old-time Westerns. The stars of the series were happy with their horses, because the main purpose was to carry the rider and were cast just for this part.

     Because the show was filmed in color and because the different personalities of the Cartwrights, the horses that were selected would be distinct before the cameras and still relate to their riders. The horses weren't owned by the actors. They were rented from Fat Jones Stables in North Hollywood. The firm specialized in renting horses and horse-drawn rolling stock to movie and TV productions since 1912.

     In 1970, the stable sold off a good deal of their livestock, which included the Paint horses rode by Michael Landon, for a sum of $19,000 dollars. He was supplied with new mounts for the final three seasons of the series. The era of Western films was coming to a final curtain. Fat Jones Stables closed their business in 1975.

     James Arness rode Buck in Gunsmoke (his name revealed in the July, 1958 issue of The Western Horseman), was a Buckskin gelding owned by the Fat Jones Stables.  Reportedly, James Arness kept the horse as a pet, housing him in his own private stable, and only using Buck when filming the series. Another source (TV Mailbag Column by Thomas Mead), claimed Buck had been called Marshal by Arness.

     Mr. Arness is more then happy to discuss Buck at his official website www.jamesarness.com on the Internet.  Incidentally, one of the eight Budweiser Clydesdale horses was named Buck. Michael Landon once related in an interview on The Tonight Show, that Lorne did not like horses and could be heard mumbling in disgust when he had to mount or ride one. On many occasions, Lorne would say, "Whoa, you son of a bitch", when he would bring Buck to a dead halt.

Note: The real names of the horses the Cartwright sons rode were Streak, Slippers and Tomahawk.

While there is no absolute breed standard Clydes should be short backed and broad chested with a well sprung barrel. Heads should have a flat profile, and a large bright eye. The neck should be long and arched. Overall the horse should give the impression of muscular strength without being rangy or loose jointed. Clydesdales tend to be leggier than many draft horse breeds.
Size:

Clydesdales are tall and leggy and stand over 16HH and weigh over 1600 lbs. Clydes that stand over 18HH and weigh over a ton are not unusual.
Uses:

The Clydesdale was developed for both agricultural work and commercial transportation. Today they are used for both riding and driving and are frequently crossed with Thoroughbreds to make strong, level headed sport horses. These are truly gentle giants that make wonderful family horses.
Color and Markings:

Clydesdales can be black, brown or bay or chestnut either solid or with some roan markings or spots. They can have white stockings on their legs, or solid colors. They often have wide white blazes or ‘bald’ facial markings.
History and Origins:

The Clydesdale was developed in Scotland during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The area where the breed began is now known as Lanarkshire district with the River Clyde flowing through it. Clydesdales first arrived in Canada with Scottish settlers, and then in the late 1880 were introduced in the United States. In Canada Clydesdales are listed as an At Risk breed with less than 500 registered horses in the country.
Unique Characteristics:

The most obvious characteristic is their large frying pan sized hooves and luxurious leg feather. Many Clydesdales have flashy colouring, with white facial markings and four white legs. They are high stepping at both the walk and trot.
Champions and Celebrities:

Most people know the Budweiser Clydesdales. Currently there are several teams that tour North America. The sight of the rumbling wagon weighing several tons, pulled by the eight horse hitch in gleaming harness is unforgettable.
