Breeds

April 16, 2008

Every horse is different not only because of their various personalities, but because of the breeds, that most of the time determine aspects of the horse’s personality and physical appearance. Along the years, people have chosen to mix these breeds in the search of perfection. Some people may be looking for physical perfection; other people could be looking for a horse with a proper mentality for the job he is being breed for. Perfection is a relative word because its definition varies depending on the person who is mixing the breeds. For example, if you want a horse to walk on rough mountain trails my recommendation would be a mix between Quarter Horse and Andalutian Horse in order to get a horse with a fair size great backs and an outstanding intelligence and will to do whatever you ask them. These breed is actually not very know but in is called Aztec and these horses are very sporty and also have a very loyal personality. If what you want is a show jumping horse I recommend mixing a Thoroughbred with a Warmblood in order to get the sportyness of the Thoroughbred with the bones and strength of the Warmblood. Purity in breeds is not always the best thing to have because all breeds have flaws and to correct those flaws you should have to cross that breed with one that its strength is the other ones flaw, if you get me, it is to improve the flaws in the way of creating a perfect horse.
