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.
My first horse was an arabian named All about me and she was the best. get an arabian. There is no one 'best' breed for a first horse. In reality you shouldn't even be concerned about the breed in the beginning. You should be more concerned with if the horse is overall suitable for you and your goals, things like breed should be considered last.
It REALLY depends on what you plan to use the horse for.
a miniature horse is a great carting breed and there ya go folks
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.
an appendix, quarter horse or a appaloosa and a palomino
There is no one "best" breed, they all have their merits and downfalls.
the breed doesn't really matter...the height of the horse matters.
Endurance riding
Any breed or cross breed of horse will work fine so long as it is sound and well trained. Don't buy a specific breed of horse just because some says it's the best.
Yes and no. Whether a particular breed of horse is best is all a matter of opinion.
In my opinion, the draft horses are better! Like the Australian Stock Horse and the Draft Horse!
Palominos are not a breed of horse, they are meerly a color pattern. If you are looking for a good 'breed' of horse, first figure out what you want done with the horse. Ex. If you are looking for a horse to barrel race, a Percheron would not be your best choice (a quarter horse would be better suited). If you want a dressage horse, do not choose a Norwegian Fjord (go for a Freisan, Thoroughbred, or Cleveland bay)
