I don't see Friesian, either, but definitely some kind of draft cross. You mention Dales as a possibility, which leads me to ask- what country/region are you in? That might help narrow it down a bit!

I know EXACTLY what she is!! She's what my mare is! A Canadian horse! People said my mare was just a 'perch cross'
I found her breed in just 1 horse book, they are about 15 hands, have one hell of a neck, are the ancestors of Morgans, mine has the common problem within the breed of having a bad reaction to bug bites. Big heart shaped bums are another characteristic. They look like short, round, stocky friesians (IMO). I thought she was a huge Dales or a tiny percheron too! Look up Canadian Cheval and Canadian draft horse and you'll find all about them!

I'm so excited to find another Canadian owner ^^ Canadians rock!!
This is mine showing off:


Here's a link to a breeder near me, IDK where you are but they have some info on the breed.
Four Feathers Farm, Franklin, MA

Oh! here's a better link on the breed standards:
Breeds of Livestock - Canadian Horse

I'm certain this is what breed you mare is - if not, then a Perch cross, but I doubt that. My mare went auction to auction, then bad trainer to worse trainer to me at 7 y/o Free-To-Good-Home situation, completely untrained. She has come a long, long way. I was amazed to find out I had a little treasure ^^
