This is a matter of opinion. You would have to go out and look at a few horses of each breed, maybe ride them if you can and see what you like better.

And also, you need to decide what you want in a horse. Arabs have great stamina, but Quarter horses are the fastest horses in the world, being clocked at 55 mph, but only over short distances. Also, Arabians are the most popular breed in the world, followed by Quarter horses in second. but, in America, Quarter horses are the most popular. Quarter horses are a more common western mount than Arabians are. And as a general rule, Quarter horses are calmer and more dependable, while Arabians are very high-spirited. HOWEVER, there are exceptions to every rule, and you will find some very excitable Quarter horses and some very calm Arabians.

The Quarter Horse is the fastest horse in the world for short distances, 1/4 mile, more or less. That's why they are called quarter horses.

Although no two horses are the same, and their personalities can vary widely, Quarter Horses tend to be reserved and laid back. They are good for cow ponies, but are often low on the list in comparison to other breeds concerning their interaction with their riders and their willingness to work. The Quarter Horses I've known have been defensive, and difficult to work with, although a few have been mildly even-tempered and good mounts.

quarter horses have been clocked at 55mph (88.5k) in the quarter mile.

Any country it raised in

for 4 rides you would pay a dollar

Shire horses can be black,brown or gray. They have a muscular build. They have long hair over their hooves & they are taller than a normal horse.[About 180cm] They're weight is about 910kg.

It depends on how much you exercise your horse. All quarter horses were bred for endurance, so they are naturally good at endurance, but the muscle tone all depends on how much you work him/her out! And all horses are born with pretty much the same amount of muscle

An American Saddle Horses (also called an American Saddlebred) habitat is 'domestic'. By 'domestic' I mean that it lives on farms, at stable yards, and only in domestic situations. American Saddlebreds are a man made bred and therefore live wherever their owners chose to keep them.

I think it depends on where you live. Individual counties have different county codes that dictate the number of animals and the different kind of animals that can be maintained. You need to check with the county code agency most likely with all the other county offices (county courthouse maybe) and they will be able to tell you what and how many animals allowed.

Quarter Horses have some very distictive characteristics. The have muscular bodies, espescially the hind-quarters and chest. Strong neck and shoulders and usually a nice head and soft eye. No surprise there are more Quarter Horses in the world than any other breed.

Quarter horses are named that because they can run a Quarter of a mile really fast. They had races in the old days for a quarter of a mile and they would use Quarter horses for them. Now Quarter Horses aren't as popular for racing, because Thoroughbreds have better stamina.

The American Quarter Horse can range from 14.3 hands up to 17 hands. The average is in the 15 hand range and around 1200 pounds.

The difference is Americans are pure. Regular QHs were bred with mares/stallys from Europe.

The only thing diffrent about them is how they are registered. Quarters and American Quarters are pretty much the same except that the bloodlines are traceable further back on American history.

The avrage size is about i think depending on the parents 12 to 14 HH

Most horses stop growing at the ages 5 or 6.

All horses protect themselves with either their hooves or teeth, both of which are formidable. The muscles in the horse's jaw are strong enough that they can break bones with just their teeth. Predators usually attack from behind. Imagine what it would be like for them approaching the rear of a frightened horse with those hooves and huge muscles on the horse's hindquarters. they can kick them and run away

Quarter Horses are an entirely man made breed and any adaptions they have have been bred into them by humans over the years. The specific traits that were bred into the Quarter Horse include: Large hindquarters to aid in sprinting, heavy muscling to aid in heavy cattle work, a generally quiet temperament, the ability to sprint a quarter mile quickly,and a natural inclination towards working cattle.

Yes and no. The Paint horse was started as a breed due to Quarter horse breeders tossing out or killing perfectly good horses just because they had 'too much' white on them, which associated the horses with Native American tribes. To prove the horses were valuable the registry was started and any Quarter horse with too much white was allowed to be registered. they also then accepted Thoroughbreds into the registry after a period of time. Nowadays there are distinct bloodlines within the Paint and many of them are actually still purebred Quarter horses.

The term paint refers to a horse with a broken coat color (there is a minimum amount of white over pink skin to be classified) that is also within strict bloodline requirements.

To be registered with the APHA the parents must be registered with APHA, AQHA or the Jockey Club (meaning a thoroughbred). At least one parent must be APHA registered.

Therefore, many paints are of strong quarter horse lineage, some horses are cross registered between the quarter horse and paint horse registries.

When a horse is not within these breed requirements, yet still retains the colorful coat pattern they are simply called a pinto. Pinto refers to the coat color whereas paint is a breed.

Quarter Horses need the basics the same as other breeds. Shelter, food, vet and hoof care and a person to love them.

A Quarter horse is a sprinter and would not be able to sustain anything over a quarter of a mile distance at a gallop, they do not have endurance along with their speed, though they can work long hours at the walk and trot.Within a ten hour period a Quarter horse would only cover one or maybe two quarter mile distances.

2 years is best but if you would like to ride it younger 8 month won't hurt . but for the first mount you have to ride the horse for about 3-5 muinites leats on you can ride it for longer , and longer and so on.

Well... Go Man Go was only half Quarter Horse (The other half being Thoroughbred), but he was a pretty famous horse. He did Flat racing and was named World Champion Quarter Running Horse three times in a row, one of only two horses to achieve that distinction.
During his five years of competition before he was retired from racing in 1960, he had 27 wins and brought earning of more than 86,000.
