    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

The book includes a discussion of the economic usefulness, judging and allied subjects, early history, a study of the breeds, breeding, feeding, care and management of both horses and mules. Special emphasis is placed on the management of the brood mare as well as that of the colt from the time the mare is bred until the colt is ready for farm work or the market. This in- cludes a discussion of the methods of training, overcom- ing undesirable habits, fitting, harnessing and the like. Because of the increasing popularity and field of useful- ness, the mule is given prominence.

  • Breyerfest Breed Classification List
    BREYERFEST OPEN SHOW BREED CLASSIFICATION LIST ___________________________________________________ updated 1/1/2021 The following list will tell you where to show your horse according to its breed; please check this list before asking which halter class to put your horse in. Horses must be shown in their appropriate class, according to this list. If you can't find a breed here or have a question, contact Show Manager Michelle Masters at [email protected]. NOTE: All mixed breed horses should show in the Mixed Breed class in the section where the breeds of their cross are shown, or where the breed that dominates their type is shown. The "All Other Mixed Breeds" class should include any horse that is a cross of breeds from different sections and does not exhibit obvious characteristic of either type. For example, a TB/QH cross that looks as much Quarter Horse as Thoroughbred could show here. "Grade" refers to a horse whose breeding is unknown or is a mix of several different breeds. You can put "Grade" on the horse's tag; there is no need to list numerous breeds. Grade horses show with "All Other Mixed Breeds". DRAFT BREEDS – American American Belgian American Cream Draft American Drum Horse NASD / North American Spotted Draft Sugarbush Drafters DRAFT BREEDS – French Ardennes Auxios Boulonnais Breton (aka Cheval de Corlay) Comtois Normandy Cob (aka Norman Cob) Northern Ardennais/Northern Draft Horse Percheron Poitevin (aka Mulassier) Trait du Nord DRAFT BREEDS – Other European Abtenauer (Austria) Belgian (aka Brabant) (Belgium)
