where has this come from where can i read up on it?

last time i weight taped my TB last summer it came up at 480KG i think now hes around 490KG/500KG at a push hes only a slighty horse.

my weight is 8st, and i went on google and worked it out based on 20% rule my little TB can carry 14stone?!

i dont think i would put this weight on his more than 1-2 times a week for 10-15mins as hes only tiny! and TBs a known for weak backs!

so i think this silly 20% rule should be out the window as it depends on breed weight body type bone mass etc!
