Is there a breed of horse from America with spotted rump?
Also the Pony of the Americas is a spotted & blanket coloured breed which was created by crossing appaloosa with shetland pony.
~Natural~
Yes, the Appaloosa.
Yup. It's the Appaloosa, and it was first bred by the Native Americans, along with Paints and Mustangs.The answer you are probably looking for is the Appaloosa - however you are confusing a horse breed with coat patterning, though the two run hand in hand as the colour of a horses coat is controlled by its genes. The gene responsible for spotting is the Leopard Complex (Lp) and different spotting patterns happen depending whether the gene carried by the parents is homozygous(dominant or recessive) or heterozygous due to the Lp gene being incomplete. A horse's coat pattern that has a spotted rump is known as a blanket spot but other spotting pattens include leopard spot, snowcap, few spot and snowflake. The Lp gene is also responsible for other characteristics such as stripey hooves, white sclera and skin mottling. Other breeds of horses also have the Lp gene - notably the Knabstrupper and the English spotted pony.

Mustang horses are typically captured in the wild and adopted. Some are born in captivity at US Bureau of Land Management Wild Horse and Burro Program holding facilities.

Mustangs tend to be smaller in stature than some domesticated horses. They also tend to be easy keepers and are very athletic.
What is the breed name between a rhino and a horse?
I have an idea. Get a female horse, find a male rino, Put them together in a barn. Be sure to supervise the mating and when your recovery period is over, please do inform me of the outcome. Duh
I haven't, nor has anyone else, ever heard of a horse mating with a rhino. Those are two completely different spieces of animal, and I can't imagine that would ever happen. Is this a serious question; did you even think about it before you asked?
It reminds me of a long-time joke about a rhino mating with an elephant.

What are facts about WILD horses?
Their hooves adapt to be as strong as the ground they run on.
They will not sleep unless they have a herd to protect them.
The lead stallion does not actually lead the herd. He serves more as a protector while the lead mare actually leads the herd to safety, food and water.
Both fillies and colts are kicked out of the herd when they reach sexual maturity-most people only know about the colts being kicked out, but the fillies do, too to prevent in-breeding.
This is a sad fact but makes perfect sense- Most of the time when a stallion steals another stallion's herd, he will often kill the babies. This is so that only the best stallion's babies survive.

What breed of horse is best for jumping?
Hanoverian
The Hanoverian is a warmblood bred specifically for jumping, eventing, and dressage. According to the American Hanoverian Society, "The goal of the Hanoverian breeding program is to produce a noble horse with a cooperative temperament, elastic gaits, correct conformation, and outstanding ability in international equestrian disciplines."
For children, Connemara ponies are also really good jumpers - I once had a 14hand Connemara that could jump 1.2meters
I believe that there is no specific breed of horse that is "best" for jumping. I think that a breed can have good jumpers, but there are other breeds to that can produce some superb jumpers! The horse that placed 3rd at the Rolex Kentucky 3 Day Event 2010 was an off the track Thoroughbred (OTTB). However MANY MORE horses are brilliant for riding!!!
Another breed is the Dutch Warmblood! The show jumpers in the Olympics use these horses because of their powerful hind legs!

Like all animals, they have their own personality, but in general they are very sweet.

Tennessee walkers have always been bred to be very willing and sweet tempered horses. Walkers are some of the most even tempered horses as far as purebreds go. However there are those within the breed that fall outside the norm (just like with any breed). Remember all horses are individuals and may not understand that the breed standard says that they're supposed to be sweet and willing.
What breed of horse first originated from Czechoslovakia?
THE SHAGYA-ARABIAN HORSE The Shagya-Arabian horse was developed in the Austro-Hungarian Empire over 200 years ago The breed originated from the need for a horse with the endurance, intelligence and character of an Arabian, but with larger size and carrying capacity required by the Imperial Hussars. Over time, Shagyas were utilized both as carriage and light riding horses. The registry of the breed is the oldest next to the registry of the English Hunt Club. The Shagya breed was originally developed at the Imperial Stud at Baboina, Hungary. Failed experiments with Spanish and Thoroughbred blood eventually led the breeders at Babolna to a cross of native Hungarian mares with stallions of pure Desert Arabian blood. Shagya bloodlines were also developed at the stud farms at Topolcianky (Czechoslovakia), Radautz (Rumania) Mangalia (Rumania), and Kabijuk (Bulgaria). THE HUCUL OR CARPATHIANThe Hucul or Carpathian pony originated in the Carpathian Mountain range of Eastern Europe. Borders have changed many time throughout history along this mountain range, therefore, both Romania and Poland claim to be the country of origin for this breed. The Hucul dates to the 13th century and is believed to have descended from the crossing of the wild Tarpan with Mongolian horses. Migratory tribes, like Mongols, introduced the horse to this region. The natural range of this little horse covers a great distance. Their habitat is the eastern Carpathians, called Huzulland. For 100s of years Huculs have bred in the mountains under very difficult climatic conditions. Isolated from other horses, the breed developed into a resistant and robust horse. In 1856 a stud for this breed was first established at Roaduti, Romania. Several bloodlines were established by the foundation stallions -- Goral, Hroby, Ousor, Pietrousu and Prislop -- and the horses were carefully bred to preserve the purity of these bloodlines. In 1922, 33 horses were sent to Czechoslovakia to establish a herd there which would becomew the Gurgul line. WWII caused a severe decline in the number of Hucul horses in Czechoslovakia. It was not until the early 1970s that concerned breeders established an organization, Hucul Club, to address the declining number of Huculs in Czechoslovakia. In 1982 they established a stud book with 50 purebred animals and the goal of increasing the numbers in that region. Today, Huculs are bred mainly in the Bucovina region of Romania as well as Hungary, regions of the Slovak Republic and areas of the former Soviet Union. In recent years the popularity of this breed has even spread as far as England. LIPIZZAN OR KLADRUBSKY The world famous Lipizzaner horse is strongly identified as having its origins in Czechoslovakia. However, they are often credited to Austria. They were relocated during the Napoleonic Wars to Czech, Yugoslavis, Hungary and Romania. Then there are the Kladruby, also known as Kladrubsk�, Kladrubian, or Kladrubier horse was bred in Bohemia which is known as the Czech Republic today. These horses are apparently some of the "progenitors of famous Lippizaner lineages." However, Lipizzans, as they are also known, are predominately Andalusian (Spanish), Neapolitan (Italian) and Arabian with some Danish, Holstein and Kladruby mixed in. But Lipizzans are neither wholly Czech nor Austrian. Here is still more input from WikiAnswers Contributors: * Only grays and blacks are bred today. * The Mantle Handler was the first orginated breed horse in Czechoslovakia. * I believe it was the Prevalsky Horse. But I am not 100% certain.

What type of horse has a dance within its name?
By dancing I assume you mean performance horses using advanced dressage skills to music.
Any horse, with the correct teacher, can be taught to 'dance.'
However it takes time, precision and a lot of expertise or it will be very unpleasant for the trainer and the horse.
Undoubtedly the most popular horse breeds for performance are Andalusian, Lipizzaner and Friesian, due to their intelligence and beautiful looks.
Hope this helps
