Most beautiful and powerful breed in the world.... KATHIAWARI
I knew next to.nothing about the breed and recently stumbled (happily) upon the videos while looking through some on Arabians. What a treat the videos on this breed have been!
You can see the great pride and care that the owners/caretakers have for them!
Thank you for this video which helped explain their characteristics and traits.
Thank you so much for this video

By looking at the dorsal and forearm zebra stripes maybe the kathiawari is much older breed than the arabian horse
