At workmorgan.com, we acknowledge the Morgan horse in all its forms of work. It occurs to us there is no place dedicated to all the work uses of the Morgan horse. We have sites for Show, Pleasure and Competition. We would like to celebrate all the work variety of the Morgan horse.
In olden days the Morgan horse would have worked hard, long hours on farms to help make a living for small family farmers, homesteaders, work in the woods and work on poor early American roads earning a living supplying the needs of a growing nation. As we crossed this continent, ranching work made use of the capable old type Morgan horse.
Today we work our Morgan horses competing to display their power and our combined skill; working in unison - getting the most out of an animal so bestowed with ability by God. We compete in dressage, endurance rides, light horse pulling contests, pairs competitions (NSEF), rodeoing, racing, etc.. We enjoy our Morgan horses working them in caravan outings, under saddle, pulling carriages, carts, sleighs, etc.
You name it. This is your site. If you work your Morgan, please tell us how.
At workmorgan.com we want you to feel free to share your use of the versatile Morgan horse in work. This historically important and no less modern necessity for keeping salient the abilities of the Morgan horse that made him so valuable is stressed here. The Morgan horse should be acknowledged in this vital aspect of his being as one of his most important distinguishing characteristics - his ability to do WORK.
