Monterufolini Horses - Pomarance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sM0GnUW_Jes
A couple of weeks ago I visited a farm in Pomarance, a small village in the southern part of Pisa province, where they breed Monterufolino horses.
The Monterufolino or Cavallino di Monterufoli is a breed of small horse originating in the province of Pisa, in the Tuscany region of Italy. It is one of the fifteen indigenous horse "breeds of limited distribution" recognised by the AIA, the Italian breeders' association. It takes its name from a former farm estate, the "Tenuta di Monterufoli", now broken up, which covered some 4000 Ha in the comuni of Pomarance, Montecatini Val di Cecina and Monteverdi Marettimo.
Monterufolino is a very docile breed, perfect for children and hippotherapy.
When they started, in 1985, there where only 6 horses left.
Today there are more than 400.
We can say that the breeding program was a resounding success.
