Morgans

The Morgan Horse Breed

When you hear the name Morgan, you may think of many things. However, for many people, when they hear the name Morgan, they think of Morgan Horses. These are horses that are one of the earliest horse breeds that were ever developed in the United States of America. The reason why this is one of the most loved breeds of horses is because of how disciplined the horses are. They have always been well known for their discipline, as well as their versatility. This is one of those horse that can do just about anything that you need it to do, whether it is farm work, long rides, or anything else. These horses are great, and people just loved them. These horses are very compact and refined in their build. However, this just adds to the charm of the horse. This is also the reason why these horse can do just about anything. They are not big horses, but they have a lot of power; and that is what you need from a horse.

Morgans also have very expressive faces, which have very large eyes. This allows you to very easily tell a Morgan horse from other horses. No matter what anyone says, there is only one breed standard for the Morgan horse. This is not centered around discipline or bloodline. However, all Morgan horses seem to act about the same. It is also nice to note that Morgans come in a lot of different colors as well. Of course, the three main colors that you are sure to find Morgans in are black, chestnut, and bay. Some of the less common colors would be things like gray, dun, and buckskin. There have even been  a few Morgan horses that have a sliver dapple coloring to them. No matter what kind of color you get for these horses, the main thing to remember is that these horses are great. They are easy to handle, and that is why so many people like to use them. They really are great horses, with pretty coloring.

The overall size of the horse is about the same as most horses. The Morgans stand about 14 hands high, but they can get up to 15.2 hands high. If you do have a Morgan that is under 14.2 hands high, however, it can register with the National Morgan Pony Registry. This means that it can be shown in Pony competitions. This is not liked by some pony breeds, because the Morgans are still technically a horse, even when they can be registered as a Pony. Their height does not matter, they are still horses, and not ponies. Of course, the Morgan breed is a great breed to have, even if you are not going to use it in competitions. This is a horse that is great to use for pleasure riding if that is all you want it for. In fact, a lot of people like to use these horses for pleasure riding, because they are so easy to handle. Kids seem to like these horses the best, because they do seem to listen a bit better than other breeds of horses.
