The Kazakh Pony breed is an ancient breed
of working pony from Kazakhstan. They have two sub-types: The Dzhabe and the
Adaev, with the Adaev being of a lighter frame and more lively than the Dzhabe.
This pony stand fourteen hands tall, are short and sturdy in appearance, and
have thick, water-proofed coats. Because of their uncomfortably short and
choppy stride, they are considered quite unsuitable for riding. They have very
hard feet and a plain body and can be any color. Unfortunately today the
Kazakh pony is bred mainly for meat.
