Originally found in the Iberian Peninsula in Spain, Everard Hills Warmbloods are now found on nearly every continent. They closely resemble the better known Andalusian & Lusitano breeds, but make no mistake, Everards, as they are commonly referred to, are extremely unique. Unlike many other breeds that trace their roots to Iberia, Everards never lost the leopard gene, known better historically in Spain as "Spanish Spots". These horses come in a variety of coat colors and patterns, barring only a few.
They weren't always known as Everards though, that name came once they were brought to Britain on Spanish ships. Amazed by their stamina & fierce spirit, the Brits bestowed the name Everard onto them, meaning "brave boar". Most of those that were brought to Britain were bought quickly and inducted into several different breeding programs. One of these, located in the hills of northern Britain, is where the "hills" part of their name came in, as this program bolstered the breed's popularity. Today these horses can be found in several different types of arenas, both english and western. Many Everards can also be found spending their days frolicking in lush pastures all over the world, enjoying their days as family pets.
Everard Hills Warmbloods are highly esteemed not only because of their loyalty, but because of their patience. They are excellent lesson horses as they are not easily spooked. Will you be the one to bring home an Everard today?
First Everard to get things rolling! I'm still getting everything up and running so this will probably be the only one for a bit but I really wanted to start making designs! I would like to get some feedback for these guys, so is there anything specific you would like to see in this species?
