The Quarter Horse's Ranch Roots
When the breed was born, the Quarter Horse was the go-to horse for ranch work. The natural athleticism and cow savvy of these horses was crucial then, and still crucial today. Now, those early traits continue to propel the breed’s recognition in the performance pen. The western performance horse industry is growing like wildfire, with new followers not only zeroing in on their favorite rodeo, cow horse, reining or cutting rider, but also the horses helping those riders to some of the highest-earning purses the equine industry has ever seen awarded. Most of those riders are sitting on an American Quarter Horse. Learn more about the Quarter Horse’s ranch roots ⬇️ #HorseIllustrated | @aqha1
