his Name was BUCK.Ben rides a "buckskin" or "dun"; that's the horse's coloring: golden brown with a black mane and tail. As for what breed, I can only guess but from the looks of him a cross between a quarter horse and Tennessee Walker (wide chest and legs set slightly to the outside). Both breeds would have been around in the back half of the 1800's. Quarter horses were bred to work cattle

Little Joe's horse was named Cochise.

Hoss Cartwright horse's name was Chub. Ben's horse was Buck, Little Joe's horse was Cochise, and Adam's horse was Sport.
Adam was the only Cartwright with a fancy east coast education but when on the Ponderosa he was a rancher like Pa, Hoss and Little Joe.
I could find no tally of how many times the Cartwrights were shot. Considering most people live entire lives without gunplay, the Cartwrights have much more than average.
I believe there was a total of 13 different Paint horses used over the 14 seasons of Bonanza, with just a few being the main riding horses. The others were for stunts and extras. After the sixth season the main riding Paint was stabbed to death at the Fat Joe Stables near L.A. with several other horses. Not all died but Little Joe's Paint did. The killer was never found.

Joe Pittman died by trying to tame a wild white horse. When the horse was let go by Jane Pittman, Joe went to get it back. When the horse came back, Joe was hung by a rope and the horse was dragging him.

Ben rode a buckskin named Buck. Adam rode a 7/8 sorrel thoroughbred named Sport. Hoss or Eric rode a dark brown horse named Chubb or Chubby. Little Joe rode a black and white pinto named Cochise whom he often called Cooch.
The Cartwrights could and did ride horses. In fact, their horses became as familar to America as the Cartwright men themselves. Patriarch Ben Cartwright always rode the buckskin, appropriately named Buck. Adam, the oldest of the Cartwright sons always rode a chestnut named either Beauty or Sport. Hoss, the middle son, rode a Quarter Horse X named Chub and youngest son Little Joe always rode the flashy black and white Paint named Cochise.
