A Portuguese horse, very related to the spanish Andalusian horse. Both are sometimes called Iberian horses, as the breeds both developed on Iberia.
Description:
The Lusitano is a compact horse with a short back, muscular shoulders and hindquarters, and long, slender legs. It has a beautiful thick, arching neck and a full, wavy mane and tail.
The features that most distinguish it from an Andalusian are the more pronounced convexity of the head, the more sloping croup, and the lower set tail.
Lusitanos generally stand between 15 and 16 hands high, and, like the Andalusian, are predominantly grey in color.
