List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
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. -
For Many Years, the Conventional Wisdom on French-Bred Percheron
by Virginia Kouyoumdjian, France or many years, the conventional wisdom on French-bred FPercheron horses has been that they are big, lumbering crea- tures with too much bone and no gait, products of a sad focus on breeding horses for the meat market. There is no doubt that this came very close to being the truth, although it never was the entire truth. Excellent bloodlines and outstanding horses have always been bred in France but they were rather thin on the ground for a long while. It was after the Second World War that things began to turn sour for the Percheron in France. To start with, there was very little good breeding stock left. A few breeders had managed to hide their best stallions, but they were few and far between. And to make matters worse, tractors took over farming in a big way and the draft horse no longer had a use on the farm. At the same time, buses had replaced coaches which had mainly been pulled by Percherons. In a harsh economic climate, old-time breeders had to face the reality that nobody wanted their horses anymore. Fortunately, there was an outlet that was thriv- ing: the meat market. Although the consumption of horse meat had not tradi- tionally been part of the French diet, it had gained in popularity as a cheaper and nutritious alternative to beef. It is widely said and probably true that the meat market saved not just the Percheron breed but all the nine breeds of draft horse in France. The problem initially was that the Percheron was no longer the perfect meat horse, having over the ages, developed the finer lines and bone structure of a working horse. -

Cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, poultry and other livestock have been an essential part of agriculture and our history as a nation. With the change of agriculture from a way of life to a successful industry, we are losing our agricultural roots. Although we descend from a nation of farmers, few of us can name more than a handful of livestock breeds that are important to our production of food and fiber. -
Genetic Structure and Gene Flows Within Horses: a Genealogical Study at the French Population Scale
Genetic Structure and Gene Flows within Horses: A Genealogical Study at the French Population Scale Pauline Pirault1, Sophy Danvy2, Etienne Verrier1,3, Gre´goire Leroy1,3* 1 AgroParisTech, Unite´ Mixte de Recherche 1313 Ge´ne´tique Animale et Biologie Inte´grative, Paris, France, 2 Institut Franc¸ais du Cheval et de l’Equitation, Le Pin au Haras, France, 3 Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, Unite´ Mixte de Recherche 1313 Ge´ne´tique Animale et Biologie Inte´grative, Domaine de Vilvert, Jouy-en-Josas, France Abstract Since horse breeds constitute populations submitted to variable and multiple outcrossing events, we analyzed the genetic structure and gene flows considering horses raised in France. We used genealogical data, with a reference population of 547,620 horses born in France between 2002 and 2011, grouped according to 55 breed origins. On average, individuals had 6.3 equivalent generations known. Considering different population levels, fixation index decreased from an overall species FIT of 1.37%, to an average FIS of 20.07% when considering the 55 origins, showing that most horse breeds constitute populations without genetic structure. We illustrate the complexity of gene flows existing among horse breeds, a few populations being closed to foreign influence, most, however, being submitted to various levels of introgression. In particular, Thoroughbred and Arab breeds are largely used as introgression sources, since those two populations explain together 26% of founder origins within the overall horse population. When compared with molecular data, breeds with a small level of coancestry also showed low genetic distance; the gene pool of the breeds was probably impacted by their reproducer exchanges. -
This Is a Cross-Reference List for Entering Your Horses at NAN. It Will
This is a cross-reference list for entering your horses at NAN. It will tell you how a breed is classified for NAN so that you can easily find the correct division in which to show your horse. If your breed is designated "other pure," with no division indicated, the NAN committee will use body type and suitability to determine in what division it belongs. Note: For the purposes of NAN, NAMHSA considers breeds that routinely fall at 14.2 hands high or less to be ponies.

Assessing Color and Breed In model horse competitions, the goal is to faithfully recreate the equestrian world in miniature. It is what exhibitors strive to do and what judges consider when evaluating a table of entries. One aspect of that evaluation is whether the color of the model is realistic. In order to assess this, a judge must be able to distinguish between visually similar (but often geneti- cally distinct) colors and patterns and determine whether or not the color depicted on the model is suitable for the breed the entrant has assigned. This task is complicated by the fact that many participants—who are at heart collectors as well as competitors—are attracted to pieces that are unique or unusual. So how does a judge determine which colors are legitimate for a particular breed and which are questionable or outright unrealistic? When it comes to the range of colors within each breed, there are three basic considerations. Breeds are limited by the genes present in the population (what is possible), by any restrictions placed by their registry (what is permissible), and by what is counted as a fault in breed competitions (what is penalized).
