The Palomino is not a unique horse breed but a striking and distinctive coat colour found across various breeds, including the American Quarter Horse, Morgan, and Tennessee Walking Horse. Originating from a chestnut base coat mixed with a single cream dilution gene, the Palomino displays a rich golden body that can range from a pale yellow to deep bronze, paired with a white or ivory mane and tail. This combination gives the horse a metallic sheen admired worldwide. Temperamentally, Palominos inherit characteristics from their respective breeds, often being calm, intelligent, and versatile, making them suitable for riding, showing, and leisure.
