With the Normans, horses came from Scandinavia to Scotland what the similarity with fjord, Döle and Gudbrandsdal explains, that originates from the same prototype. By 1530, Louis XII sent. French horses at James V. from Scotland. During the 17. and 18. Spanish and Oriental stallions finally reached century to Scotland in order to improve the established ponies. In the 19. Century began lint its famous Calgary-Gestüt John Munro Mackenzie with the Arab on the island The Syrian, native mares and the stallion Isleman, that was a good copy of the old, powerful type, to build. A stamp-stallion was stove Laddie, that worked Atholl in the stud farm from 1887. Broadly, the ponies of the islands were smaller and wirier, that from the mainland bigger and stronger, today, they are hardly distinguishable. Since 1923, high society provides a scheduled breeding the Highland pony and leads also the Stutbuch. The race enjoys growing popularity for itself.
