Collecta horses: Shire mare The Shire is a horse breed from England. With an average height of 1.80 meters, the horses of this breed are among the largest in the world. The Shire belongs to the cold-blooded breeds and is mainly used as a draft horse. Like the Clydesdale, the Shire is late maturing. Its rapid growth in the early years means that the bones and muscles are not fully mature and resilient until later in life. The horse can only be gradually prepared for work at the age of four.
