Abstract

Horses differ in type and different disciplines require specific types of animals, which are often determined by the breed. For instance, a Thoroughbred is more likely to be a hack than an SA Boerperd, and a Warmblood is more likely to be a hunter than an Arab. The breed is also more likely to determine whether it is a horse or a pony.
