Is a quarter horse a warmblood horse?

Answer 1

Quarter horses' temperaments vary; it is not a breed with an easily predictable temperament. Some quarters (particularly older ones) are very quiet and make ideal trail or pleasure riding horses, but there are a lot of working quarter horses and competition horses who should only be ridden by an experienced horseperson. You would need to evaluate the temperament based on what the horse's owner says, or by trying the particular horse you're interested in.

Answer 2

Yes and no. There are two versions of the term 'Warmblood'. The first is used to describe one of the many European sporthorse breeds and this is a very common use of the term. The second is to denote the horses breeding. There are three 'bloods' Coldblood, is used for draft horses or those that are large and slow moving. Hotblood is used for the fastest, most intelligent, and usually some of the oldest breeds (Akhal-Teke, Arabian, Caspian, Thoroughbred, Anglo-Arabian, Marwari, and Kathiawari and any combination of these breeds.) A warmblood is a horse that was developed from crossing cold and hot bloods on each other, thus pretty much every breed that does not fall into the hot or cold categories is a warmblood.

Answer 3

Your typical Quarter Horse is only warm blooded being a male. At certain times of the year however the Quarter Horse Stallion can be said to be Hot Blooded.
