About the Narragansett Pacer

The Narragansett Pacer was the first horse breed developed in the United States during the 18th century from a mix of English and Spanish breeds, although the exact cross is unknown. It was closely associated with the state of Rhode Island, but it became extinct by the late 19th century. The Pacer was owned by many famous people of the day, including George Washington. The last known Pacer died around 1880.
