We aim to promote rare horse breeds through various means, including rare horse displays, showcasing representative horses, and supporting businesses that use these breeds. Our goal is to raise awareness and appreciation for these unique equines.
We are dedicated to supporting global breed preservation and revival efforts. By connecting breeders with potential buyers, promoting studs and semen availability, and fundraising for preservation projects, we strive to ensure the survival and thriving of rare horse breeds.

Get in Touch
This website is a work in progress. Please reach out to correct and update information. We would like to feature great educational videos, photos of real horses proving their versatility and strengths, accurate preservation status numbers, news on the breeds from NZ and overseas, up to date contacts, links to websites, registries and associated entities for the breeds and more. In some instances placeholder or international images have been used where some nice local horses could be, we use what we can find at the time (hopefully without getting in trouble). We appreciate images supplied if you have any New Zealand based images.
