Best Answer

The most popular horse in North America is the American Quarter horse with the largest breed registry in the world. I would suggest that you do very careful reseach before thinking of starting a horse farm in todays market. There is a glut of horses and the prices for horses are at historically low values.

You can use ANY type of horse for a farm if they are trained right. But, Quarter horses (or paints) are usually used. Mutts are good too, for you can do more then one thing with them... usually. Quarter Horses seem like a good choice because of their build and their attitude. They are good for cattle work because they have wide breasts, and their size is also great. They are usually not too big and not too small. They are a great ride too! Paint's could be the same, but it usually depends on the genetics. But really, ANY horse can be used. :) For example, I have an Arabian. Yes, an Arabian for the farm when their breed is famous for their jumping, dressage, and just beauty over all.

What is the best type of horse to have as a pet?

The best type of horse to have as a pet depends on what you want to do with the horse. If you simply want a companion animal that can maybe pull a small cart, then a miniature horse, Shetland pony, or another breed of small pony is usually the best and most economical. If you want something that can be ridden then a medium sized pony on upwards to large draft horses can fill this role.
