The unique coat
colours of the American Paint Horse make it
an eye-catching addition to anyone's barn.
Each Paint Horse has a unique combination of
white and any other colour found in the
equine world. Each colour falls into one of
two basic coat-colour families - Red
or Black.
There are several
different independent genetic factors that
control a horses outward appearance. Some of
these control basic coat colour while others
may work to modify or, in some cases, hide
the basic colour. Each colour ranges from
light to dark, including everything in
between. Weather, nutrition, shedding, body
condition and the horses general health can
affect this variation in colour.
