Kesheng Horses are not an official breed, but rather a strain of the Hequ Horse<\/a> bred in Qinghai Province of China. The Hequ dates back to the 7th century when they were prized. Later, during the 19th century they were crossed with the Datong Horse<\/a> to improve their bloodlines. Today they are among the most common animals found in China and three strains have emerged Kensheng, Jiaoke<\/a> and Suoke.<\/p>\n Of the three strains, this one possesses the most Mongolian<\/a> influence. The Hequ is quite stout in general, this strain appears to be a bit smaller due to the Mongolian blood. They are also likely quite fast compared to the other strains. <\/p>\n Average height 12.8-14.8 hands Head is wide with a convex profile Generally bay<\/a>, brown<\/a>, grey<\/a> or black<\/a><\/p>\n Calm and sober<\/p>\n Transportation Intro Kesheng Horses are not an official breed, but rather a strain of the Hequ Horse bred in Qinghai Province of China.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9833,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[5,4,118,15],"class_list":["post-9829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-china","tag-bay","tag-black","tag-brown","tag-grey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9829","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=9829"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9829\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9834,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9829\/revisions\/9834"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9833"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
