AMERICAN CREME AND WHITE HORSE

Also referred to as the American Albino breed, the American Creme and White, is colored true white, with pink skin and dark brown eyes. The first was born in 1908, named "Old King", in Illinois. A very stocky horse, he stood at 15.2 hands, had strong muscles, straight legs, and weighted near 1200 pounds. Old King was purchased by two brothers hoping to use him to develop a new breed in 1917. The brothers bred horses with very scientific methods, and were successful in creating the new breed of American Creme and White.

In 1936, one of the brothers and his wife promoted the American Albino horse throughout horse shows in the United States and Canada. In 1937, the couple developed the American Albino Horse Club (AAHC) to record the horses that came from Old King's breeding.

American Creme and White horses were originally used for driving, riding, jumping, dressage, farming and circus tricks. Most of the breed are extremely gentle and intelligent. Now the horses are very versatile and used for English riding, show and pleasure as well as Western show and pleasure riding, endurance competitions, jumping, parade, working stock horses, and the entertainment industry. The horses often win awards and top honors at shows.

In order for a horse to be considered an American Albino/American Creme and white, the horses must have pink skin and be white without any pigmentation of the hair. All eye colors are acceptable. When American White horses are bred, they will produce 50% white foals when bred with colored horses. Sometimes, even when breeding an American White with another White and Creme, the result will be a colored foal!

AMERICAN WALKING PONY

The American Walking Pony was produced by the foundation of the Tennessee Walking Horse and the Welsh Pony. The ponies are large, about 14 hands in height and look like an Arabian horse. The American Walking Pony was featured in many horse magazines and suddenly, people around the world wanted to purchase horses from the breeding.

The American Walking Pony has many unique gaits, including the Merry Walk, the canter, and the Pleasure Walk. Due to breeding involving the Welsh Pony, the American Walking Pony is also a superb jumper and is highly successful in open shows as a Pony Hunter. Walking Ponies are extremely versatile animals.

It is said by many that there is no experience like riding an American Walking Pony. They ride smooth and light, unique to the breed.
