Sein ganzes Gebäude hat eine verhältnismäßige Form und seine einzel= nen Theile eine richtige Zusammenstimmung. Der Kopf ist gut ange= setzt, und ohne so fein zu seyn, als der lange englische, ist er doch we= der zu stark an Knochen, noch zu überladen an Fleisch. Die Stirne ist platt, der Nasenrücken gerade, die Nasenlöcher weit, der Hals gewöhnlich kurz und etwas stark, aber gut aufgesetzt, die Mähne fein, die Brust breit, die Schultern stark, die Gliedmaßen gerade gestellt, das Fesselge= lenk von der richtigen Länge, und der Huf rein, fast ohne allen Tadel. Der Rücken ist zwar etwas vertieft, was als Fehler nach dem aufgestell= ten Ideal von Pferdeschönheit gilt, er wird jedoch durch das kräftige Hintertheil und die gerundete Form des Ganzen wieder ausgeglichen. Die Kruppe ist gewölbt, und der Größe der Brust und des Vortheils entsprechend.     Das mecklenburger Pferd ist voll Energie und doch zugleich auch von dem gemäßigsten Temperamente. Bei der geringsten Anregung zu einem geschwindern Gange kommt es dem Willen seines Reiters nach, und eben so ruhig kehrt es wieder aus dem erstern zurück, wenn es durch die Faust nur unmerklich verhalten wird. Selten findet man einen Meck= lenburger, der böse im Stall wäre, und zutraulich folgt er seinem Wär= ter nach, sogar oft im freien Felde ohne Leitung; nur mit andern Pfer= den, die nicht seiner Rasse sind, kann er sich häufig nicht vertragen. Bei der Abrichtung zur Reitkunst ist er im Allgemeinen gelehrig und fromm; scheu ist er selten und selbst vor dem Schusse erschrickt er  nicht. Dabei ist der Mecklenburger von einer ausserordentlichen Ausdauer, und diese bleibt ihm auch noch in einem hohen Alter eigen. Pferde die= ser Rasse von 18 bis 20 Jahren, die eine Menge Strapazen ausgestan= den haben, sind demungeachet nicht selten noch so gesund, kraftvoll und sichern Ganges, als es unsere in Deutschland erzogenen Engländer  nicht im vierten und fünften Jahre sind.
