Also called S\u00e1rv\u00e1rer, the Leutstettener Pferd or Leutstettener Horse is a rare breed that came from the Leutstetten stud farm in Bavaria until 2006 and now is in the hands of a few private breeders. They are handsome animals which show some of the finer characteristics their foundations breeds are known for.
\n<\/p>\n
The foundation of the breed began at the S\u00e1rv\u00e1r stud farm in Hungary using Nonius<\/a>, Arabian<\/a> and English Thoroughbred<\/a> bloodlines. Late in the 19th century the stud changed ownership and the new owners made some updates to breeding programs. After that time only Thoroughbred and Hungarian Furioso<\/a> half-bloods were bred to S\u00e1rv\u00e1r mares. <\/p>\n Late in the 19th century, the stud again changed hands and fell under Bavarian ownership. This also brought breeding changes and after this time Furioso blood was the main influence on the breed. S\u00e1rv\u00e1r horses remain a line of the Furioso breed in the Hungarian stud books. <\/p>\n Average height 15.3-16.2 hands<\/p>\n Head is dry with bright eyes and a straight profile Generally brown<\/a>, bay<\/a> or black<\/a>, but can be found in chestnut<\/a> and grey<\/a>.
