Nez Perce Horse
The Nez Perce Horse is a horse breed , Field Spaniel of the Nez Perce tribe of Idaho. The program began in 1995 in Lapwai, Idaho and is based on crossbreeding the Appaloosa and a Central Asian breed , Sloughi called Akhal-Teke. This program seeks to re-establish the horse , Goldendoodle -Golden doodle culture of the Nez Perce, a proud tradition of selective breeding and horsemanship that was destroyed in the 19th century. The breeding program was financed by the United States Department of Health and Human Services, the Nez Perce tribe and a nonprofit group called the First Nations Development Institute, which promotes such businesses.
