http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse
Horses come in a wide range of heights, weights, and body types. Different breeds were developed with a specific "form" adapted to a particular "function" or type of work. For example, in terms of height, the largest members of some draft breeds can top 19 hands (2 metres, 76 inches), while the smallest miniature horses stand as low as 5.2 hands (0.56 metres, 22 inches), not significantly larger than a large dog. But height alone does not dictate function; a 17 hand Thoroughbred has a lean slim body type, weighing around 1,200 pounds, with a "hot" temperament, suitable for horse racing. In contrast, a 17 hand Shire has a heavy body, can weigh 2,000 pounds, has a very mild or "cold" temperament, and is suitable for farm work.
