Hanoverian

A very noble looking horse, the Hanoverian breed is a warmblood with elgance, natural balance, and a rhythmic canter.  They originated in Saxony, Germany, where there was once a horse-breeding industry that flourished for over 400 years.  One of the most prominent riding horse breeds throughout the world, there are Hanoverian horses on all 5 continents.

Hanoverian horses are calm and level headed even in difficult situations.  They allow the rider to drive them, and can be used for a number of different reasons. 

The registry for Hanoverians was developed in 1978, for the purpose of promoting and preserving the breed.  The American Hanoverian Society is an independent organization, but it has a close relationship with the inspection, licensing procedures, registration and educational activities of the German Hanoverian Breeders' Society.
