Description
The Hargo Talu stud (named after Hargo, one of the last purebred stallions) is currently the only and last horse farm in Estonia, which has specialized in the pure conservation of the Old-Tori Horses. The current backlog nevertheless represents almost half of the breeding population. It is actively and successfully for years trying to preserve the breed in its original, unified expression. Especially the attitude of purebred stallions for breed-preservation plays a pioneering role.

More infos
The Old-Tori horses got their own studbook in june 2012 and though the breed got founded in 1856 in Estonian little town Tori, the heavy riding (cavalry) and also proper working horses of that time are dying out. There is a small population of the very friendly, strong, but powerful and easy to handle heavy warmbloods left, Hargo Talu is the most important place to see these horses.
