THE NATIONAL LUSITANO SHOW • GOLEGA, PORTUGAL

The Lusitano Horse could be considered the national horse of Portugal, revered for its athleticism, intelligence and grace. Every November in the town of Golega, Portugal, Lusitanos and their owners converge on the town for a week long celebration and competition, bringing together Lusitano owners, breeders and admirers together, for a week like no other. The square in the center of the town is a non-stop celebration and parade of Lusitanos, complemented with the smoke of roasting chestnut vendors. Join us, for a celebration of the Lusitano breed, like no other.

    Your point is well taken, however the client who wanted this filmed is a Lusitano owner/breeder, so the focus more intently pointed at the Lusitano, which is their breed of choice to promote. We are keenly aware of the PRE's and Andalusians and DO have episodes in our library and one in production on Andalusians and PRE's.

    If you trace them back to their origins, they came from the same geographical region, but by political differentiation between Spain and Portugal, their paths were slightly altered resulting in the breed differences. In a similar vein, Morgans took divergent routes- one with many outcrosses that were permitted up until 1950, and the traditional bloodlines without any known outcrosses, resulting in the traditional Morgan line (purebred Lippitt bloodlines), and the contemporary Morgan which incorporates other breeds, up until the Registry closed this around 1950. Same breed, divergent paths over 200 years. You can get more information on this from one of our Archive episodes produced about 20 years ago on the Lippitt Morgan. kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6l6xLOand3Sf9Y.html

    @@HorseTVGlobal yes of course they were same, but in the time and over years breeding for other qualitys they are a bit diferent, but dificult to see. Like the head, the croup and the more refined hindquarters.... Each owner of an iberian horse can dee and feel diference, but most people don't see much diference. They are bred on diferent way: lusitaner for the work with animals and sport like working equitation, snd the pre & andalouser morr to be beautiful for the sport,more elegant. It's like kwpn horses who are bred for sport and kwpn who are bred as jumpinghorse. And the result is enormous. A jumpbreeded horse can jump 1,30m on his 5/6 years and a normal kwpn sporthorse will have dificutys to jump over 1 m on 8/9 years. Look at the ISH irish sporthorse, last i saw one, bishops quarter, jumping over 2.25m. and an irish vet, holly lenahan, has two young ISH and they jump already 1,2 and 1,4m. But this breed are really jumphorses. So in each breeding stable, irish, dutch, spanish, portuges, friesians, thouroughbred... They try to have the best resuls for what they're looking for. In thr netherlands are already a few breedingstables who are crossing the pre and lusitaner with kwpn, to make them better.☺️

    As you well know, there are many horse breeds that don't need fixing, but people tend to define the horses by what they want to breed for, in many ways altering the conformation, genetics, attributes, etc., to conform to their own personal desires and interests. The Morgan breed is a classic example, as the original Justin Morgan horse who became legendary for his attributes and prepotency, was described as being 14:0 to 14:1 hands. Because owners wanted a taller, leaner, longer, higher stepping horse, it was crossbred with saddlebreds, hackneys, many different breeds, and now you have a "contemporary Morgan that can easily be 16:2 hands and has a saddlebred appearance to it. Several years ago the World Champion Morgan in hand Stallion FCF Rhythm Nation was discovered by investigation to be half saddlebred, and nearly 50 horses were expunged from the Registry. It underscored how far away from the original Morgan type, the breed had drifted.@@joannesmartens9442

    For example, all not in breeding register registratet horses, also mixes are called andulusier. Registered horses with breading papers are PRE or Lusitanos. There you can can follow the pedigree and so on.

When you have a lusitaner at the side of a pre, and you have to say witch one is the pre, it's dificult, because they speak same language, and not spanish or portuges, and they look the same. And all pre are andalusier but not every andaluser is pre because pre are registrated in a studbook. But they are same. But a lusitaner has little diferences witch are dificult to see for me.🥰

    No. The lusitano and the andalusian diverged when the spaniards where forbidden to bullfight in horseback. There the way they where selected to breed was different. The portuguese kept breeding for bullfighting, the spaniard started to breed for beauty, and pulling carriages on sundays. That's why most bullfighting horses even in spain are lusitanos or lusitano crossed.

    When the last spanish habsburg died without heirs, his uncle ( that came from france) replaced him. He was horrified by the bullfighting, and prohibited it. Your people started to do it by foot. It's your own history. The lusitano breed is fine, leave it alone.
