While the Haflinger breed has sometimes struggled to survive, particularly during and after both World Wars, today the future looks brighter. Austria and South Tyrol remain the prime sources for Haflingers, and pure-breds are hot-branded with the Austrian Edelweiss. There are other studs throughout the world today, and they have become a popular choice for endurance riding as well as driving. Members of the British Royal Family have owned Haflinger harness ponies. The late Duchess of Devonshire, as Patron of the Haflinger Society of Great Britain, did a great deal to establish the enthusiastic following there.

Generally good information, but all purebred Haflingers trace back to a single stallion called Folie, bred from a 1/2 Arabian sire and a Tyrolian pony mare. (Never heard of Josep Folie). The Haflinger height standard ranges from 54 inches to 60 inches. And while all Haflingers are various chestnuts, they also carry the 'flaxen' gene which gives them a white, or silver-flaxen mane and tail. They are wonderful small horses. I've bred Haflingers for more than 20 years.
