Tractability

General description

The test for Tractability is intended to show how easily a horse can be trained or controlled. Since the phenotype is based only on statements of the horse owners or people who have contact with the horse, a differentiation is difficult. Furthermore, this test does not make any statement about the cleverness of the horse.

Detailed description

The test for Tractability is intended to show how easily a horse can be trained or controlled. Since the phenotype is based only on statements of the horse owners or people who have contact with the horse, a differentiation is difficult. Furthermore, this test does not make any statement about the cleverness of the horse. It should also be noted that factors such as anatomical conditions or diseases can strongly influence the tractability, so genotype and phenotype do not necessarily match.
