Dressage stallions that will shorten the back?

My mare tends to throw foals with longer backs. Any dressage stallions specifically known for shortening the back?

Rousseau tends to make compact horses. However it is unlikely you can find semen from him but he has many approved sons and grandsons. It can be hard looking at pictures of stallions that you cannot see in the flesh since so many of the pictures show them as 2 and 3 year olds. And when they mature they tend to get longer.

Schroeder will shorten a back. You should also look at the new stallion to America this year Five Star.

Fidertanz is very well known for shortening the back

Can you contact a breed registry for this question?

do you have a picture of your mare?

Casue sometimes the look long in back, but they are short in neck and their hind.

horse with short neck and short sloping croupm what you see very often, dont need shorter back, but need longer neck en a not sloping croupe. and that all is also with good hindleg in conformation.
