It was a beautiful spring day, May 10, 1968, when a newborn golden palomino colt galloped up the hillside at Browntree farm beside his proud mother, a glittering liver chestnut.
The colt was the product of years of experimental cross breeding to produce a large pony around 14 hands with Arabian type and smooth saddle gaits.
After the American Walking Pony was featured in articles in various horse magazines, horse lovers from around the world expressed interest in purchasing stock.
The foundation cross that produced the American Walking Pony was the Reg. Tennessee Walking Horse and the Reg. Welsh Pony. The walking horse contributed the smooth saddle gait and the Welsh the lovely head and long neck.
Visit a Walking Pony Breeder and ride a walking pony and experience that feeling of lightness and smoothness that you have never known before. It is unique to the breed, truly, "A DREAM WALKING."
