What is hispano arabe?

Hispano-Árabe refers to the crossbreeding of Arabian horses with Andalusian horses in Spain. This breeding originated in the 15th century when Arabian horses were brought to Spain by the Moors. The Andalusian breed, known for its strength, agility, and elegance, was already established at this time. The breeding of these two breeds resulted in horses that display unique characteristics and temperament. Hispano-Árabe horses are known for their excellent endurance, speed, and intelligence, making them popular for various equestrian disciplines. The breed's conformation is a perfect balance between the Arabian's delicacy and the Andalusian's elegance, grace, and strength. They have an easily identifiable silhouette with a rounded, well-proportioned head and neck, a sloping shoulder, a short back, and powerful hindquarters. Today, Hispano-Árabe horses are sought after for their beauty, grace, and exceptional abilities as riding and working horses.
