Why a Lusitano? The Lusitano is a breed of horse from Portugal, usually used as a saddle horse though he is also prized as a light driving horse. He is compact, highly manouverable, intelligent, brave and agile. He is hot-blooded, like Arabs and Thoroughbreds. The Lusitano is also a very attractive breed of horse, though this is fortuitous - the Lusitano has been selected for countless generations for ability, bravery and agility in battle and, later, in the bullring, rather than for looks. | ![]() |
