  • 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.

  • History-Of-Breeding-And-Training-Of-The-Kladruber-Horses
    History of Breeding and Training of the Kladruber Horses The Kladruber horse is the only breed of the original ceremonial horses still bred that is the only draught horse breed in the world originated, bred and trained for drawing carriages of the social elites. Thanks to the Habsburg conservatism and unchanged breeding goal, the Kladruber horse has preserved its original “baroque” appearance from the 18th century to date. It still bears the traits of the original, but now extinct breeds (old Spanish horse and old Italian horse) which were at its beginning and from medieval times until the 18th century influenced the stock in most European countries and colonies and by the end of the 18th century were extinct. Even though there are only limited opportunities for ceremonial carriage horses to be used at (now the most frequent breeds are warmblooded horses for sport) the Kladruber horse breed has been preserved and still serves its original purpose for example at the Danish Royal Court and it is also used for state functions. Horse breeds are divided into primitive (indigenous) and intentionally designed (on the basis of targeted selective breeding) however some breeds oscillate between these two main types. Then the horse breeds are divided according to their purpose such as draught horses which the carriage horses fall into (weight up to 1200 kg), riding horses (up to 800kg) and pack horses (less than 500 kg). A new horse breed came into existence either in a particular area, using the same genetic material and the effect of the external conditions and climate (most of the breeds started in this way) or it came into existence in a single place – at a dedicated stud farm with a clearly defined breeding goal using particular horses of selected breeds imported for this sole purpose and applying the knowledge of selective breeding available at that time as well as the knowledge of local natural conditions and climate.

  • Multiple Pregnancy in Mares
    MENDELNET 2016 MULTIPLE PREGNANCY IN MARES MARIE IMRICHOVA Department of Animal Breeding Mendel University in Brno Zemedelska 1, 613 00 Brno CZECH REPUBLIC [email protected] Abstract: Mare is in terms of reproduction described as uniparous, it means that she has one foal. More embryos, fetuses or foals represents non – physiological phenomenon and as such it brings a lot of complications. In terms of the etiology is discussed as a predisposing factor mare’s breed, the most common is a higher incidence associated with Thoroughbreds. Although in context of multiple pregnancies often mentioned is mare‘s age. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and results of multiple pregnancy in Thoroughbred and Old Kladruber Horse mares. It was found 323 records of multiple pregnancies in Thoroughbred and 48 in Old Kladruber Horse mares and the result of the multiple pregnancy was in Thoroughbreds in 258 cases twin abortion, in 45 cases parturition of 2 dead foals, 15 records of parturition 1 live and 1 dead foal and in 5 cases it was the parturition of 2 live foals. In Old Kladruber Horse twin abortion was recorded 36 times, in 7 cases 2 dead foals and in 5 cases 2 live foals. Key Words: horse, breeding, reproduction, pregnancy, twins INTRODUCTION The reproduction standard in horse breeding is the fundamental informative factor affecting its success and profitability. One of the factors that can decide about the reproduction outcome is also multiple pregnancy. Multiple pregnancy basically may occur naturally either by spontaneous division of embryos, or by fertilization of two oocytes after multiple ovulation.

The data were collected from the Holsteiner Körung und Reitepferde – Auktion catalogues. Based on the analysis of 869 pedigrees (up to the fifth generation inclusive), inbreeding coefficients (F), expressed as a percentage for each stallion, were calculated. The highest F values were recorded in 2003 (2.05%) and 2004 (1.74%). Statistically significant differences in the F values of the stallions from individual years were found. The outcomes of the present study show that the breeding work based on conscious assumptions is carried out in order to increase an inbreeding level in the sport horses’ production, regarding at the same time that the value of the inbreeding coefficient cannot be too high. Key words: inbreeding, Holstein, stallions, classification, breeding INTRODUCTION standing ancestors and subsequently consolidating desi- red traits [Pikuła and Werkowska 2009, 2011a, 2011b].

  • Cor De La Bryere
    COR DE LA BRYERE Sela Francesa – Castanho Escuro Nasc.1968 (França) Altura: 1,68 m Criador: Madame Essayess, Yvre de Polaiss, França Importado para Alemanha – Holstein em 1971 Estações: em Siethwende de 1971 to 1984, Zangersheide 1985, Elsmhorn 1986 até1988 e em Sollwittfeld de 1989 até sua morte em 2000. Cor de La Bryère foi o garanhão que revolucionou a criação do cavalo de salto moderno. Seu nome sempre é procurado nos pedigrees pelos bons criadores, especialmente na linha materna, uma vez que a linha materna de “Corde” como é carinhosamente conhecido, provê enorme qualidade técnica aos cavalos de salto. Seu pai, o garanhão PSI (Puro-Sangue-Inglês) francês RANTZAU, provém da extremamente influente linha saltadora de PSIs de BAY RONALD. RANTZAU veio da linha de FOXLIGHT, por FOXHUNTER, por FOXLAW, por SON-IN-LAW, por DARK RONALD por BAY RONALD. RANTZAU foi um cavalo de corridas fundista de qualidade e ficou ranqueado em 3º lugar no seu grupo de idade de 3 anos. Correu 9 corridas entre 2.000 e 3.000m, vencendo 2 e com 5 colocações. Adquirido pelo Haras National, chegou ao Stud de Saint-Lô em Janeiro de 1951. Sobre RANTZAU, o inspetor do Stud de Saint-Lô escreveu: “bom posicionamento de pescoço e cabeça, excelente construção de espáduas e antebraços, quadril longo, articulações baixas. Garanhão de classe e rara nobreza com excelente amplitude de movimentação.” Contrariando a lenda, os criadores da área ficaram bastante entusiasmados com este jovem garanhão bem criado, bem conformado e com boa performance. RANTZAU foi utilizado entre 1951 e 1962, cobrindo entre 40 a 49 éguas por ano.
