Piebald Quarter Horse<\/a> blood was introduced to improve the stock and the breeding program continued using Quarter Horses, Thoroughbred<\/a> and Criollo<\/a> animals. In genetics, they are similar to the American Paint breed<\/a>, but in conformation they are more Iberian. <\/p>\n Generally considered an old term, piebald<\/a> is a pinto white pattern on a black base (chestnuts are called skewbald<\/a> and bays\/browns are called tricolor<\/a>). <\/p>\n Average height 14.2-15 hands<\/p>\n Head has a straight or slightly convex profile It is a small, docile saddle horse that is agile and enduring. <\/p>\n It is a small, robust horse breed mainly raised in the province of Santa Clara by the Guajiro people, or Wayuu, who live mainly from weaving and agriculture. <\/p>\n Black<\/a> with tobiano<\/a> or overo<\/a> pinto patterns. <\/p>\n Calm and brave Cow horse Intro The Cuban Pie horse is not an official breed and is perhaps considered a strain of the Cuban Pinto.
