Spain and her Horses
Spain - horses inscribed - revised - apto for breeding - registered with ANCCE - Spanish Stud Book - PRE or andalusian. Articles and FAQs.
Our family has been directly involved in working with horses here in spain for 4 generations. One of the original functions of our websites was to provide resources and free information, to open up a window to Spain so others could share what we live.

We support the dream of the spanish horse. And in the pursuit of that dream, our intent is to help in guiding people to the correct sources.
That is what it is all about, why we spend the hours we do.
It may be "tossing starfish back into the sea," but for some starfish it can make a real difference.
What we know, we speak. When we have an opinion, we give it. And when we don’t know, we’ve gone out of our way to assist people in discovering the answer or someone who can give it.
To all those who asked, and all those who are looking to know more about a horse from spain, we hope you find some answers here. We charge nothing and enjoy the contact. Our Open Line is always open, and we are happy to talk with you about spain and her horses.
