Quarter Horse Buckskin

The Quarter Horse is one of the oldest American breeds. The history of the Quarter Horse begins in Virginia in the early 17th century when American settlers obtained horses from the Chickasaw Indians. These wild horses were descendents of the horses brought to America by the Spanish explorers. They were then crossed them with imported English ‘running horses'. These horses were well- suited to the needs of the early colonials, everything from pulling, hauling, and as riding horses.
