About Cayuse Pony HorsesAbout Cayuse Pony Horses





The Cayuse pony, named for the Cayuse people of the Pacific Northwest, isn't your typical pony. Despite its name, it's a distinct breed known for its unique characteristics and historical significance.

Standing around 14 hands tall, these compact horses boast a stocky build with high withers and long cannon bones. This build gives them a distinctive uneven stride due to their sloped pasterns. However, don't underestimate their agility; they navigate challenging terrain with remarkable surefootedness.

Their coats usually come in various shades of brown, showcasing a medium to large fatty hump at the shoulders. This unique feature, along with their expressive eyes and alert ears, contributes to their distinctive appearance.

While safe to consume, the milk produced by Cayuse ponies tends to be higher in acidity and harbor more bacteria than ideal. Historically, they were primarily used for tasks like pulling plows, packing goods, and riding. Sadly, their population faced a decline due to overgrazing, population growth, and encroaching farmland.

Despite these challenges, the Cayuse pony remains an important part of the cultural heritage of the Pacific Northwest. Today, dedicated efforts are underway to conserve this unique breed and ensure its survival for generations to come.
