These ponies, which stand between 12.1 and
13.1 hands high, come in the colors of
dun,
bay, and
piebald only. The
Huçul originated from the Carpathian mountains in Poland and is the prime
example of a working pony. It is traditionally used under harness and as a
pack horse for trips over difficult mountain tracks. These horses are
built perfectly for their trade with a short, compact body, strong hard
legs, and sound hooves. The Huçul is a hardy, sensible, and docile breed
and can be trusted with almost any difficult work, throwing their all into
everything.
