Peruvian Paso - "Don’t just ride, glide!"

“The Peruvian Paso horse, arguably the smoothest riding horse in the world……”
- at the GAIT magazine, April/May 2007

Today’s Peruvian is the result of over 400 years of controlled breeding in Peru where breeders wanted to create a horse with beauty, stamina, and riding comfort. Their achievements have produced a horse with unique motion of the front legs and a 4 beat lateral gait both of which are genetically transmitted. The Peruvian is the perfect horse for pleasure trail riding, especially for riders who may have knee or back problems. The mild mannered Peruvian is an ideal family horse. Saddleridge Farms is breeding Peruvians for today’s larger riders while maintaining conformation and gait.
