Rocky Mountain Horse History

The Rocky Mountain Horse comes from the state of Kentucky. It is a very common American breed that has developed itself since the eighteen hundreds. Tucked away in the Appalachian Mountains, the Rocky Mountain animals famously had a brown shaded coat with lots of shine to their frames, making them simple to recognize. They were used for their many uses as a very stable-yet-surefooted horse. They also have a unique four feet gait and a long and bushy tail to go along with it. Many farmers found great joy in owning one or two Rocky Mountain Horses so that they could easily utilize their strength for pulling plows and helping on the farm. One gentleman in particular, Sam Tuttle, is noted for his Old Tobe, which was a stallion that went on to become quite the champion for the southwest. Once the word got out that they could be used for climbing the mountain sides with ease and as farm hands, their popularity rapidly increased. They are currently still a popular breed all over the United States.
