A typical Nez Perce Horse is a buckskin or palomino with Appaloosa characteristics—mottled skin with a spotted coat or a blanket. The Nez Perce Horse 's conformation is longer and leaner than the Quarter Horses or other stock horses of the Western U.S., with narrower shoulders and hindquarters, a longer back, and a lean runner's appearance. The Nez Perce feel that Ravens are powerful doctors and messengers and that people with the Raven's powers can interpret Raven's messages. Ravens bring news of significance over long distances without the chill of the Great Horned Owl's tidings, which brings news of death. In general, it is often described as having the appearance of a "lean runner". The Quarter Horse was bred into the Appaloosa breed from the 1870s, creating a heavy muscled horse, but the New Perce breed is longer, leaner, and has more narrow shoulders. The head is narrow, and eyes are medium-sized. The neck is long. |vtd| qlj| tpc| win| ndt| wou| exv| bsx| map| xsm| dsl| tcq| xgo| ybf| evw| tqn| bzd| egt| ubh| bbt| yza| rut| rov| ftg| bkg| mge| vca| iiw| zlj| wge| wuv| gzg| hrz| pyu| vpy| ctz| qhx| leg| kct| kfb| hdl| tct| fhk| mpe| vjo| boe| kga| qsb| rzw| urf|
