This is a list of all the horse breeds in the DAD-IS, the Domestic Animal Diversity Information System, a database of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. In 2024 there were approximately 1600 horse breed entries, reported by about 130 countries. The breed names are those held in the database, and thus reflect the diversity between the various reporting countries; although for some breeds, there is a transboundary name available on record. Intentionally, no further attempt has been made to link, unify, rationalise or translate them. One spelling error has been corrected. The list can be sorted alphabetically by breed, which allows the geographical range of a breed such as the Morgan to be seen. It is also text-searchable, which may help find all entries for, say, the Mérens.
