Arya Kurdish Horse

Welcome to Arya Kurdish Horse Stud
We'd like to take this opportunity to welcome you and introduce you to the Kurdish Horse with a known history stretching back thousands of years, it is one of the oldest pure breeds of horse in existence today. It provides a unique combination of strength and endurance giving owner's and riders the opportunity to experience and enjoy a truly magnificent animal, adaptable to a wide range of disciplines from Dressage to Endurance and Eventing.

The stud was established after a program of DNA Testing and Micro-Chipping of Kurdish Horses in the Kermanshah Province was conducted jointly by Australian Agricultural Resources Group Pty Ltd, the Government of the Province of Kermanshah and Iran Veterinary Generals Office for the Province of Kermanshah. Samples once collected were forwarded to the Australian Stud Book for testing and analysis by the Australian Equine Genetics Research Centre. The ultimate objective of the program was primarily to maintain the breed but also establish a viable sustainable industry, both domestically and internationally for Kurdish Horse owner's in the Province of Kermanshah and throughout Iran.
