American Saddle Bred

HISTORY  OF THE AMERICAN SADDLE BRED
The American Saddle Bred has its origins in the 17th century, when British pioneers brought their Galloway and recreational horses to North America. These horses were bred to be both small and strong, and very suitable for riding on tough terrain.

DESCRIPTION
Description- A good Saddle bred should have good muscles and soft glowing coat. The mares should be feminine and the stallions real machos. The head should be beautifully shaped with big expressive eyes, ears should be closed and a narrow nose with large nostrils.

WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR
Use- As the name suggests, a riding horse. It is very well suited for dressage, jumping, terrain riding and western riding but also very good for carriage driving.
