Also called Foutank\u00e9 and Senegal Barbe, the Fouta breed is a light saddle horse that comes from the Baol and Sine Saloum regions of Senegal in western Africa.
\n<\/p>\n
While Senegal has rich equestrian traditions, breeding is highly localized and there are no centralized studbooks. Breeds found in the country are not particularly ‘pure’ with respect to bloodlines. Rather, they are animals bred or raised for local needs and are generally named for where they can be found. This makes reliable information scarce, so breed or lineage history is difficult to pin down. <\/p>\n
Fouta Horse were developed using M’Bayar<\/a> and M’Par mares crossed with Fleuve<\/a> and periodically Barb<\/a> animals. They are highly thought of, with their fine Fleuve blood and are the mounts of chiefs and nobles.<\/p>\n Average height 13.3-14.8 hands Head is fine with a straight profile Generally grey<\/a>, but can be found in most solid colors<\/a><\/p>\n Intelligent and willing<\/p>\n Light agriculture Intro Also called Foutank\u00e9 and Senegal Barbe, the Fouta breed is a light saddle horse that comes from the Baol and Sine Saloum regions of Senegal in western Africa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5651,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[88],"tags":[15,25],"class_list":["post-569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-senegal","tag-grey","tag-solid-colors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=569"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8523,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569\/revisions\/8523"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5651"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Features<\/h3>\n
