Araboulonnais horse

Country Of Origin France
History and Background The Araboulonnais is a relatively new French breed recently developed by crossing Arabians to the large, robust Boulonnais.
The origin of the Araboulonnais began late in the 20th century. It was thought that the beauty and pep of the Arabian would blend wonderfully with the gentleness and soundness of the large Boulonnais.
The resulting cross was an animal that was more refined than the Boulonnais but much larger and heavier than the Arabian. They were created for riding or trekking and prove to be energetic, athletic mounts with a tendency to be resistant to disease.
Use Today Agriculture work, Pleasure horse, Trekking horse, Riding horse
Height 15.1 to 15.3 hands high (60 inches, 154 centimeters)
Colour Generally grey
Characteristics This breed is new and still not clearly defined characteristically.
Personality and Temperament Gentle, willing, intelligent and tough
