Poco Bueno was a brown American Quarter Horse stallion foaled April 10, 1944.[1] He was sired by King P-234 and out of the mare Miss Taylor who was by Old Poco Bueno.[1] Poco Bueno was named for his maternal grandsire, and the name means pretty good in Spanish.[2] Poco Bueno is the stallion that is linked to the genetic disease Hereditary Equine Regional Dermal Asthenia (HERDA) in stock horses.

He was a solid brown horse with no white markings. When mature, he stood about 15 hands (60 inches, 152 cm) high and weighed about 1200 pounds.[2]
