1DR FJORDS
Striving to help you experience the wonder (1dr) and intrigue of the Fjord breed. Our breeding operation started over 3 decades ago, making us the longest operating registered Fjord breeder in the country. We keep 4-6 stallions and a base broodmare herd of 20, with 3-5 more mares in evaluation. We have also been the past decade's most prolific NFHR breeder and should have around 20 foals produced each summer. We raise foals with optimal growth and joint development for long-term soundness, healthy metabolic function, ideal social skills, and low-stress skill-learning via the management of our broodmares with their foals and a stallion living 24/7 on hilly, phytochemically-diverse pastures. We breed to produce fairly tall drafty Fjords with a naturally calm, level-headed temperament, strong work ethic, easy trainability, and sound, correct, versatile, functional structure and movement within the Breed Standard. All accepted Fjord colors are possible from our herd. Quality foals are available annually. Matching your aspirations for your equine partner with a foal naturally possessing those traits is our priority. Come to our Fjord Open House July 12, 2025, 10-4 to meet all of our Fjords and their foals in person!

4 GIRL FJORDS
Welcome to 4 Girl Fjords, a small, family-run farm nestled in the mountains of northwestern Pennsylvania. Conveniently located just 20 minutes north of I-80, we are proud to introduce our 2025 crop of Norwegian Fjord foals.
Our journey with the breed began when we retired our mother’s beloved Quarter Horse and went in search of a horse the whole family could enjoy. During the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, my three sisters and I fell in love with the charisma, hardiness, and kindness of the Fjord. We spent countless hours trail riding through the mountains and taking them to local shows and quickly realized this was more than just a hobby.
With the encouragement of a kind breeder in Kentucky, we welcomed our foundation stallion, SEF Floki's Ragnar, a white dun with a quiet disposition, athletic movement, and classic Fjord type. His presence inspired us to take the next step and start a breeding program focused on temperament, trainability, and sport potential.
We chose to keep things small so each foal receives the time, handling, and individualized care they deserve and maximizes their potential and temperament. All 4G foals are: Color tested, Up to date on vaccinations, Dewormed on schedule, Well-handled with a strong foundation for future success.
All of our horses are registered with the NFHR under our 4G prefix, proudly representing the four sisters behind the farm. We're excited to share our passion with fellow Fjord lovers and look forward to connecting with those seeking their next great partner.
