Our breeds
Welcome to the world of the Highland pony originating from Scotland. The Highland Pony is the largest of the Native UK pony breeds though they are as large in stature as most working QHs, and larger than most Arabs or Morgans. We also breed PRE (Pura Raza Espanol (Andalusian)) horses.
Highland ponies are great mounts, as well as harness horses. They make great mounts for adults or larger children,and also do well in harness. More about each of our breeds can be found on our about Baroque Farm page.
All of our ponies are broken to ride, and most are broken to drive or will be as soon as they are of age to do so. Both Highland ponies and Dales ponies are very easily trained,and are very personable breeds.
Our PRE horses are lovely movers of fantastic bloodlines. The PRE horse is called the Horse of Kings, known for their love by the nobility of Europe. They were used in combat as well as for leisure riding,and known for their remarkable kindness. More about each breed can be found on our about Baroque Farm page.
StallionsThese are the stallions standing at Baroque Farm. All of our stallions were hand selected. Each stallion comes from different, proven lines. All of our boys were bought because they have fantastic temperaments, and are very great movers, and are very athletic. We currently have 4 licensed and imported Highland pony stallions, one licensed and imported, Dales stallion, and one CH PRE Andalusian stallion. |
Mares The ladies of Baroque Farm. Our mares were all hand selected. They complement the stallion lines that we have chosen. Each mare has certain qualities that we are looking for in addition to their fantastic natures. We have 4 breeding age Highland pony mares, 1 Highland pony 2 year old, 1 Higland pony yearling filly , 1 weanling filly, as well as one imported Dales mare. We also have 2 PRE mares. |
FoalsThis page is for our foals to be introduced each year. Some will be for sale, others kept to further our breeding program. We do have a foal waiting list. We have both Highland pony and Dales pony foals born each year. We also have Spanish and Warlander foals born each year. EMail us to find out more. |
Here at Baroque Farm we breed for temperament, type, and movement. We try to stray away from grey color due to melanomas; however, we will not turn down a good horse due to color alone as long as it is not homozygous grey. Both homozygous and heterozygous grey ponies or horses are inclined to have melanomas. You can find the percentages of homozygous vs heterozygous grey for melanomas by searching on line. The Highland pony and the PRE horse have much to offer many US riders. Please feel free to email, call or visit our facebook page with questions. We are also always here to help with any information that we can provide. Visitors are also welcome by appointment to meet these wonderful equines in person. They love visitors!
