Mustangs are descended from horses brought to the Americas in the 16th century, and now roam free across the American West. Mustangs developed into a hardy breed that can be found in almost every coat color and pattern.

The Appaloosa is known for its uniquely spotted coat that comes in many patterns. They are hardy horses that make excellent stock, pleasure, and trail mounts.

The Quarter Horse is the most popular breed in America, and for good reason - they're hardy, reliable, and versatile. Known for their intelligence, as well as their docile and steady demeanor, the American Quarter Horses are usually fairly compact with fine chiseled heads and heavily muscled bodies with powerful shoulders and hindquarters and sturdy legs. An extremely versatile breed, the Quarter Horse is used as a family pleasure horse, show horse, racehorse, and working ranch horse.

The Missouri Fox Trotter stands out for its versatility. Today it is rapidly gaining popularity throughout the United States, Europe and the Middle East. Best known for its comfortable ride, Fox Trotters are loved as trail horses. The breed is also recognized for its beauty, style, and success in the show ring. Although the Missouri Fox Trotting Horse is capable of doing many different gaits, there are three distinct gaits: the Flat Foot Walk, the Foxtrot, and the Canter.

The Arabian is one of the world’s oldest horse breeds, and is cherished for its intelligence, beauty, and athleticism. Whether competing in endurance events or modeling on the cover of a magazine, these spectacular horses have earned their place as one of the most popular breeds.

The Clydesdale is a breed of heavy draft horse developed in the early nineteenth century by farmers in the Lanarkshire (previously Clydesdale) district of Scotland.
