For my first ride i want to ride pure Arabic horse 😍😍 i don't know why but i luv horses i don't know when i am around one it gives me energy , enthusiasm , excitement it's a really mesmerizing thing
I have ridden a Peruvian Paso a few times. It was one of the most interesting horseback riding experiences I ever had. The last thing I ever expected was to go at full gait while feeling like I'm riding a bicycle on smooth pavement. It has to be the most comfortable horse to ride in the world.
I own two Peruvian Horses. I have had five total, and I adore the breed. I rode my first Peruvian Horse when I lived in Peru. I was hooked! Another interesting fact about the Peruvian Horse is they have enlarged hearts and lungs in order to accommodate the thin air high up in the Peruvian Andes. They ARE the smoothest riding horse in the world and they have amazing temperaments.
Yes, if I was young again, I would own Peruvians. My sis owned them until her death and then her friend bought them from the estate. She loves them as much as my sis did. They are the best horse in the whole world and they are the smoothest ride ever. They are also very sweet, and they are so very smart and learn quickly. As you can tell, I love them very much.
Omg. Riding a Peruvian paso is a life changing experience. I have a very dear friend in Missouri who breeds gaited horses. As children we grew up around arabians. We both loved them. We went our separate ways as is common in young adults. I bonded with my Arabian mare who is to this day my soul mate but I wanted to keep an open mind.
My grandparents had a Peruvian Paso when I was growing up named Rocky Top. They got him from an auction, and always suspected he was stolen. Everything surrounding his history was really suspicious (no registry paperwork, recent gelding, questionable injury marks, etc.) but they never found anything. The only thing that identified his breed was his gait. He was my best friend growing up, and protected me. He even once went after my dad when he started yelling at me in the pasture. Rocky lived to be roughly 32 according to the vet. He was the only pet I've had in 35 years that I still miss to this day and cry over.
Yes, I have had the pleasure & privilege of owning 5 Peruvian Horses including a foal I bred & raised. Ridden a handful of others ( friend’s horses & in Peru), met many more… They are smooth to ride but even before I got to sit on the back of one, I was captivated by their gentleness, sociability and discovered with my own, that they are great communicators with ability to maintain focus, making them quick and willing learners. Early on in my engagement with the breed I met a warmblood owning, dressage practising Equine Vet who cared for a herd of Peruvian Horses. Her comment, stated with emphasis was that: “They are not like any other breed of horse”. Over ensuing years I found that to be true. Smart, spirited, willing, playful, sensitive….deserving of individual attention & not to be subject to rote training methods which they may respond badly to. My intelligent open minded trainer who was a rare individual as he was a QH Reining Horse trainer/breeder, listened to my Peruvian mare, understood her gait was to be encouraged & supported. He fell in love with her: “ So quiet, such a quick & willing learner yet such a buzz to ride. A sweetheart who puts a smile on all 4 cheeks”. She’s gorgeous; I love her, I love her” he said. 😍 Yes, they are “ different” from other breeds of horse! 😄
I've ridden a Xolumbian Paso stallion...and the ride blew my mind! I could not believe how smooth he was! You forgot to mention the champagne classes. The riders hold a glass of champagne full to the brim, & the horses go full speed around the ring. The winners don't spill a drop!
Sweet little mare that upon riding her the classic "paddling" motion of her front hooves were so unexpected. I could see the underside of her front hooves as she traveled!
I was able to visit my wonderful friend from my home in maine to her home in Missouri. We ultimately traveled to Tennessee to the Buffalo River trail ride campground.
Hey Randy -- Peruvians are typically between 14 and 15 hands with stout bodies. I have several friends well over 6 feet tall with Peruvians. :) The taller ones aren't as common, but they're out there. My stallion is 15.1, as is my gelding by him.
There are Peruvian Horses in Florida. Contact the Breed Registry North American Peruvian Horse Assocn NAPHA to locate a breeder & perhaps meet a PH in person. Texas has been a bit of a centre for the breed in the past with National Shows etc held there.
Yes always nice to have 2 horses to keep each other company. 😉 Some Mustangs are 4 beat gaited too, as they may carry Spanish blood ( similar origins as the PH) in their veins from centuries ago when the first New World horses were carried across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain.
Have you Ridden a Peruvian Horse? 🐴 If not, would you like to try one?
I always waiting for the Dutch draft horse breed. It haven't shown yet in this channel. Hope it will out soon

They really are wonderful horses. 💕Sounds like you had some great times with them, thanks for sharing!!
I had Peruvians. I can no longer ride but my heart is still with them.

I have three with two on the way! Absolutely the loves of my life! Thanks for giving them some much needed notoriety!
Awesome! I bet you are so excited for the new arrivals! 😊 What type of riding do you do with yours?
@@DiscoverTheHorse I do, primarily, trail, but have started getting into show as well.

Her shoulder did so much rolling motion that it kept her back steady while still reaching out and swiftly covering ground!! She was amazing.

Peruvian horses are the best in the world

I rode her Missouri troxfostrotter with a lovely long stride but her sweet little Peruvian paso mare Chica blew my mind.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing

Question they look so small. I am a 6’1” about 230 not a good look on a 15 hand horse. I normally ride 16-17. Are there larger examples in the breed?

Do they do well in Florida? In other words deal with hear and humidity?
There are Peruvian Horses in Florida. Contact the Breed Registry North American Peruvian Horse Assocn NAPHA to locate a breeder & perhaps meet a PH in person. Texas has been a bit of a centre for the breed in the past with National Shows etc held there.
The breed was used in the plantations of northern Peru, a big desert with a few rivers running through. Yes, they do well in warm environments.
How they walk is the same as I move. One foot step ahead, and the second one move from behind to ahead of the foot that move first
there front legs look like theyll be in pain, the legs don't look good at all, like looks weak, poor things :"(
their legs looks skinny
Adopt a Mustang before you buy!
Adopt a mustang but keep a Peruvian to ride!
