A quiet, mystical morning. It's these calm moments that made it possible for us to imagine life with these Mountain Pleasure horses a century ago. In the early mornings, these special horses would cross fields and forests covered with morning dew, bringing their owner to their desired destination safe and sound. Librarians, nurses, traveling teachers. In Eastern Kentucky, they all had a Mountain Pleasure horse upon which their livelihood depended.

Our beloved MPH/Old Kentucky Saddlers are one of only 8 heritage horse breeds chosen for this amazing project, and one of two chosen from the United States. ❀

During our adventure in beautiful Kentucky, we stayed at our own cozy farmhouse on the Rockin' R Farm who is the biggest breeder of the Mountain Pleasure Horse. That way we were able to document the horses in the field whenever we wanted. And so I woke multiple times before 6 am to capture the golden morning light. The horses graze on top of a hill making for beautiful silhouettes against a backdrop of the sky on fire!

Introducing the next wonderful breed in the Equine Legacy project: The critically endangered Mountain Pleasure horse of Eastern Kentucky - a living heritage of the Appalachian region.

The Mountain Pleasure horse is more than just a breed; they are a symbol of a deeply cherished heritage. Hailing from the scenic mountains of Eastern Kentucky, these horses are an integral part of the local culture and history, showcasing the enduring bond between humans and horses. Renowned for their natural, smooth four beat lateral gait known as the β€˜β€™saddle rack’’, they have taken their owners all across the rugged terrains of the Appalachias.

We've chosen the Mountain Pleasure Horse for its cultural significance, deeply rooted in the heart and soul of Eastern Kentucky.

Have you ever had the privilege of meeting a Mountain Pleasure Horse in person? Share your experiences and thoughts in the comments below! Let's celebrate the beauty and splendor of this remarkable breed together. πŸŽπŸ’«
