It is believed that the term “cob” originated in the UK and Ireland, where these sturdy horses were originally bred as tough, versatile steeds. During the Middle Ages, Cobs were used to work on the farm and in the military where they had to pull heavy loads. Thanks to their easy-going personalities, they were also a favourite mount for riding and driving. During the 1700s, the Cob’s popularity grew in the UK. #cobs #horses #cob
