Arabians, as they are often referred to, are very intelligent, good-natured and willing to please. No wonder that these delightful animals are the subject of many legends. One of them states that Muhammad, after a strenuous desert journey, tested his mares’ loyalty by turning them back from a waterhole. Only five of the desperately thirsty animals responded. These faithful mares became the legendary founders of the pure-blood Arabian breed.
