Florida Horse Hay Sales and Delivery
A co-worker of my husbands wants me to help train his horses. I know a little about the breed but the riding disiplines and training are different than the horse we have here. I know they are Spainsh bred and used in bullfighting, driving, and dressage. But these are high stepping naturally gaited horses. The closest thing I have ever ridden was a Peruvian Pasa Fino. (Love those horses…. No Trot!!!) Sorry if I spelled the name wrong.
You might want to read up on Andalusians. Basically the same horse as the Lusitano, but you'll likely find information more readily. Andalusians/Lusitanos are not normally considered a gaited breed. They are Iberian, however, and are included in the ancestry of many of our modern-day "Spanish" horses.
The "Peruvian Pasa Fino" that you rode, if it was a purebred horse, was either a Peruvian Paso or a Paso Fino. They are two totally separate breeds from different countries. Their only true resemblence to each other are their common ancestors (such as the Andalusian) and that their names both include the word "paso" which means "step."
