About the Vendéen-Charentais Half-bred Breed
.This breed, also known as the Demi-sang
de l’Ouest, dates back to the early 17th century when
the mares of Charente and Vendée were crossed with imports
from Holland. Subsequent cross-breeding with Norman and Anglo-Norman,
alternating with English Thoroughbred, Arab, Anglo-Arab and
Norfolk blood went a long way towards upgrading the breed. Though
by 1920 it was a fixed breed, like the product of Normandy,
the crossing with Anglo-Norman Studs continued. Bred and raised
in Vendée, Deux-Sévres, Carente, Cahrente Maritime
and Vienne, its most distinguished and spirited specimens are
found in the Bocage Vendéen, the foremost stud farms
at La Roche-sur-Yon, Saintes and Angers. A fine saddle and draught
horse, he has in the past served well as a cavalry and artillery
horse.
Usually of large and sturdy build, he stands from 15 to 17 hands,
has a high and deep chest, a powerful and well set-on neck and
rather long heavy parotid head. The top line of the body is
good, with exceedingly fine withers, clearly defined and well
back. The shoulder is long and well orientated, the legs sturdy
and of good formation, the feet (a consequence of marsh breeding)
rather broad and flat. This breed, like the other half-breds
raised in France, is nowadays known in that country under the
name of Cheval de Selle Francais.
