Arabian horses have become one of the most popular breeds in the United States. Their intelligence, spirit, stamina, and gentle disposition have helped them become increasingly popular; they perform excellently in horse shows and competitive events.

With archeological evidence dating back to at least 4,500 years, Arabian horses are considered one of the oldest horse breeds. They originated from the Middle East and were distributed to different parts of the world because of war and trade. This is the reason why most of the modern breeds have traces of Arabian blood in them.

Arabian horses exhibit a close relationship with humans, a positive aspect that greatly contributes to their good-natured attitude. Arabian horses are also quick to learn and are alert, which makes then the perfect horses for raiding and war. As a matter of fact, these horses were originally used for war purposes because they were able to withstand the harsh conditions of the Arabian desert even when traveling long distances.

Arabian horses’ impressive stamina lends it excellent speed, agility, and gracefulness — the qualities that make the perfect competitive horse.

Arabian horses stand between 14.1 and 15.1 hands tall. Aside from equestrian competitions, they are also good for trail riding and are excellent ranch horses.
