Many people who suffer from horse allergies don't realize there is now a breed of horse that is Hypoallergenic. These horses have actually been around for many years but up until recently the study of the Curly horse fiber (hair) was inconclusive. Recent studies have just now concluded that the Curly horse IS in fact hypoallergenic; this means that you may have little to no allergic reaction to the Curly horse. Until now people with allergies to horses had very little option other than to suffer through. But thanks to the discovery of Curly horses and their hypoallergenic qualities, allergic reactions to your horse may be a thing of the past. This is a dream come true for many. More information about Curly horses and their hypoallergenic qualities can be found here: http://www.curlyhorses.org/index.php?cat=89 Here is a link to find out the unique history of the Curly horse; Article written by Karen Zierler from Curlies Austria http://www.curlies-austria.com/curlyhorses.html

Being Hypoallergenic is just one of the wonderful traits that the Curly horse possesses. Curly horses are also known to have one of the sweetest temperaments. This is what the NACH said about the Curly horse, "With Curly Horses, the majority of them are found to be consistently highly intelligent, naturally calm, and friendly, personable horses. Curly Horses are highly prized by their owners for both their peaceful dispositions and their ability & desire to use reason when frightened or challenged." The Equiworld is also of the same mind and states that the Curly horse's "...most cherished quality is their calmness and extremely gentle disposition." Many breeders and Curly horse/pony owners across the world have also found the Curly horse to be one of the gentlest and kindest breeds.

Over the past few years Curly horse breeders have worked hard to create a hypoallergenic pony so that children who suffer from allergies can also own a hypoallergenic child sized mount. At present there are very few Curly ponies in the world for sale so it is our goal at Double J & D Acres to offer affordable Curly ponies so everyone can have the opportunity the enjoy these beautiful hypoallergenic animals.

Double J & D Acres maintains a small pony ranch facility in McLure BC and welcomes any interested parties to stop by and check out our new arrivals.
