- From the HorseTV Global Archives, we bring you another episode on the Akhal-Teke breed.
The Akhal-Teke is a horse of History, but it also faces the very real possibility of extinction if their numbers are not increased significantly. Owners from across the U.S. from Washington State, to Minnesota, to the Kentucky Horse Park, discuss why this is a horse worth saving from extinction, and how you can help.
I believe that they're just so very beautiful, nothing like that in Texas
There appears to be an Akhal-Teke breed in Texas near Conroe, north of Houston. You might contact royaldutchessfarm@gmail.com if interested.
Good to see a few riders not abusing their horses with metal bits and chains, dressage riders are the worst double reining and severe bits, should be outlawed like racing, it's animal abuse.
The Akhal Teke in general is not made for riding as it is too long in the back, a rider causes too mych strain.
@@imwondering3885 You think a horse not made to carry a human safely is a disability?? There's nothing wrong with this breed, it just has a longer back making it generally, not suitable to carry a rider without causing strain.
@@imwondering3885 OK, than I would be interested in seeing the breed with a shorter back more suitable for riding, I don't doubt you, I don't know enough about the original state of this breed. A longer back However, would not necessarily be a disability.
@@imwondering3885 No, my comment was specific to their confirmation, long in the back, not suitable to carry a rider.
@@imwondering3885 No, buyers will still ride horses with short back. We can quite easily see in the images available the horses have long backs, it's as simple as that, there's no debating this.
The Han Dynasty started a fight over this legendary horse, but Karen here thinks the back is too long.
Maybe Western equine standards are not the end all be all when the Turkish People of the Horse have a thousand years on it.
