The Criollo is generally a shade of dun, although there are also blue and strawberry roans, chestnut, skewbald, piebald, and the prized grulla or gateado coloring, a brown or mouse-dun shade.
A stockily built animal, the Criollo stands between 1.42 and 1.52 m (14-15 hh). The neck is short and thick, and the head profile is distinctively convex. While most modern Criollos move in the conventional diagonal trot, a number still retain the old lateral ambling gait of the Spanish horses. , Mi-Ki (Toy)
