Quarter Horse

This is a saddle horse that has above average stamina and can reach high speeds for short durations of time and distance. Usually preferred for “range work and rodeos.” [36] [ Equine, Rodeo ]

Quit the Cow

A horse separates cows from a herd in an event called “cutting.” If a cow is uncooperative a rider may signal the horse to “quit a cow” which is the command to allow the cow to return to the herd. The horse will then be directed to a different cow to cut from the herd. [37] [ Equine, Rodeo ]
