Home to an amazing diversity of climates, Russian horses have to be some tough animals.
There are many breeds native to Russian soil, but perhaps the most well known is the spirited Akhal-Teke. This animal is known for its tremendous stamina and it’s hardy nature which enables it to survive extreme conditions.
Other breeds native to Russia include the Don, the Orlov Trotter and the Russian Heavy Draft; all of them suited to their specific landscape.
