Knabbstruppers

[RobaDob]

How much are they worth?

And should they be covered in spots?

'Cause we have just got a Knabbstrupper x Arab in to work with, and its owner wants £2600 for him, but he hasn't even done anything!

Thanks x

A good purebred Knabby with full papers would be around £4-£5K for a ridden horse.

Not all Knabbys have spots - there are some few spots out there and they are almost pure white with the odd dot of colour, and sometimes none.

The horse you have is a cross-bred and will never fetch as much as a purebred of either parent bred unless it is exceptional at dressage/jumping/driving.

£2600 does not sound unreasonable for a normal ridden type, regardless of breeding.
