American Walking Pony – Breed of the Week

Welsh Pony & Tennessee Walking Horse

Images from & Just chaos

The American Walking Pony was the result of an experimental breeding program with the intention of creating a bright & refined pony with smooth saddle gaits for showing.

The foundation of the breed comes from crossing the smooth gaited Tennessee Walking Horse with the refined physique of the Welsh Pony.

The result is a handsome animal that looks great in the show ring that can compete with seven different gaits (including the merry walk which just sounds cute).

Asking For Help

Finding pictures for this breed has proven difficult. If you have pictures of an American Walking Pony that you’d be willing to share, I’d be glad to provide you credit & a link for use of the photo.
