False... The American Paint Horse IS A BREED. Palomino is a color, buckskin is a color, dun is a color, brown is a color. Paint is a breed. A breed is any group of animals with a homogenous, regular phenotype/genotype. If you breed two paints, you are going to get a paint (exceptions for the crop out/plain marked) - if you breed two palominos, you might get one, you might not. There are crop out QHs also that have "excessive white" - there are the oddballs in every group - but I assure you, the APH is most definitely its own specific breed.

Β Correct, Paint is a breed. Not a color.

which is why they allow solid paints to be registered… LOL.


Exactly.lol

Hmm, I still don't agree...if you have two quarter horses, you breed them and you get a colored horse...what is the horse? If you have two Arabians you breed them and you get a colored horse, what is the horse? I guess I just don't see a "paint" as a breed. I see it as a color....I understand that the AQHA won't register a horse of color thus the APHA was formed...


I believe if you breed 2 Arabians and got coloured, they would still be registered Arabian color would be pinto

YES!

The color would be classed as a Pinto but the breed an Arabian....???

This is a direct quote from the Pinto Association website:
"A frequently asked question about the Pinto is β€œwhat’s the difference between an American Paint horse and a Pinto horse?” American Paint horses are limited to registered bloodlines of Paint, American Quarter Horse and Thoroughbred horses, whereas the Pinto can be from an array of bloodlines including the Arabian, American Saddlebred, American Miniature Horse, Tennessee Walking Horse and American Shetland Pony to name a few. The PtHA does not accept Appaloosa, Draft or Mule breedings and/or characteristics, except for non-characteristic Appaloosa geldings."

The term "pinto" is used to describe a coat pattern. The term "paint" is in reference to the breed, although most people refer to ANY colored horse as a paint, whether it is registered or not.

I totally understand the Pinto Association. It's when people say I own a Paint...okay great what kind? This is how I see it...you can have a Paint(colored horse) from any "bloodline" (breed) its the "associations" that define what you have....lol!

When people say they have a paint, but really they have a pinto patterned Arabian - it is out of ignorance. If somebody has a pinto colored horse of any breeding other than APHA recognized lineage - it is a pinto, not a Paint. Paint is a breed, pinto is a term uses to describe the color pattern. Again, this is why solid paints can be registered.

IT'S ABOUT GENETICS AND DNA, not just about what you see with your eyes!


I guess I just won't ever see it that way. Two registered AQHA horses that have a foal and it happens to come out colored is a Paint? Hmm...I see the horse as a quarter horse that the AQHA won't register, thus it's now a APHA quarter horse..but still a quarter horse. I call those quarter horse Paint....

It's not really a question of how a person sees it. Paint is a breed - scientific fact. And AQHA changed that rule years ago.

If it helps horse monopoly recognizes Paint as a breed :P

There's not much to argue about after learning Monopoly's official position on the matter. ;)

Paint is a breed...however in order to be registered paint they have to be ONLY quarter horse or thoroughbred.  Pinto is just a color registry...any breed or mutt type.

APHA MISSION STATEMENT has always called APHA a breed organization .....>>>>
Mission Statement
Our mission is to collect, record and preserve the pedigrees of American
Paint Horses and to stimulate and regulate all matters that pertain to the
promotion, history, breeding and exhibition of this breed.
Our success depends upon our ability to provide fiscally responsible and
efficient services to our members.
We aspire to excellence in record keeping, reporting, recruiting,
educating and supporting our membership, so that we may inspire
confidence and create in them a desire to use our services.
We serve both the breed and our members by being ever aware of the
industry and market, and of the needs, opportunities and challenges of our
members

But the problems is in their rules they revert to a colored horse association with limitations and restrictions on horses that are registered paints. You can tell without asking if they own or have ever owned a horse or competed in a horse event because of the stupid way rules are written and expressed.

This is on Page 9-10 of the proposed rule changes at the 2014 convention for Barrel racing pattern ... these fools have no idea how to show the measurements on the pattern or having a clear approach zone prior to the start/finish line//timers ...... guess they watched the pattern at the NFR with its 12 ft inset ..... ... lol ...
http://www.apha.com/docs/default-source/rules/2013-rule-change-prop...

The more familiar you get with APHA rules the more aware you will be of the oxymoron rules you will see implemented by these morons ........

ANOTHER BASIC MORON DECISION:
The 2014 APHA RULE BOOK WILL NOT BE PRINTED BUT YOU CAN DOWNLOAD TO YOUR PHONE ONLY ....
( this was not a cost savings move .... they have started two of the dumbest new magazines you have ever seen along with the Paint Journal and a monthly paint magazine and put the Racing Journal on the internet duhhhh) this is 4 printed magazines!!

Just my thoughts but a quarter horse has the potential either to be also registered APHA or its offspring could be registered APHA (more options). Where as a APHA horse's offspring cannot be AQHA registered.

When I was shopping I looked at both AQHA and APHA registered horses (including solid breds). However I could tell I preferred to get an AQHA. Perhapes because the registry is larger? There are also more AQHA shows in my area. Also as pointed out they are (can be) more marketable for resale.

Around here paints are not know to be successful in the barrel pen. I do see alot in reining and roping but I can honestly say Ive never seen a nice barrel racing paint. The ones Ive seen are a pain in the a** and do not run that great. I personally am not a fan of the paint look, I like the plain old sorrels.

Charmayne James made it to the NFR on a paint named Magic, Kim West made it to the NFR on a black and white paint...I think his name was TBar....both of them were COLORED paints...there are some others that have made it on solid paints, but I can't remember their names right now.

A quarter horse cannot be registered APHA. That changed in 2008, I believe (maybe 2006). My memory's not what it used to be. They must have one paint parent in order to qualify for APHA registration. If they are a cropout now, they are registered with AQHA and have "excessive white" on their papers. They CANNOT be registered APHA.

I had paints back in the day..and for awhile there, alot of people bred for color... not bone, not brains, not anything other then color... so for awhile I think Paints got a bad rap for poor breeding choices...
I am not opposed to a nice paint, Im actually a sucker for a well made paint (or QH)

I don't know squat about paint blood lines. So what are some of the good bloodlines y'all talk about. What about good paint blood lines in other disciplines? All I know is that I have a paint and he had APHA points at some time in his life. But the only thing that really matters to me is that he is good with my daughter. Also, if I wanted to get involved with APHA events, how would I need to go about doing that?

I have heard this a lot but not sure I have ever really seen proof of it although I think people can be more critical of paint stallions than a QH stallion bred almost identical with the same race/produce record because people will claim someone is only breeding to the paint for the color. I know some people just plain do not like a colored horse whether from old wives tales (they are all broncs, terrible feet, spooky, etc.) or from the fact white is a pain to keep clean. I have owned and do own several paints and I can't say I would value them any higher or lower than the QH's I have had.

I have heard this a lot, too- but in my own experience, I get better prices for Paints, Pintos, & Appaloosas (whether solid or colored) & they sell a lot faster. I suppose it depends on your area, and of course it depends on a horse's training, too. I agree with this comment about Paint stallions- same for Appy stallions.

Really? Why? That's disappointing. (Sorry to those individual owners that it helped - I am happy for you.)

Did they change the stakes rules for racing and that affected the Barrel incentive or were the changes just made for the Barrel incentive?

To clarify, I was hoping to see the APHA's barrel incentive work out to be an incentive that would help those of us raising good old colored Paints to market our colts. If this requirement is dropped, it will help people selling finished barrel horses but I don't see it helping breeders. That's discouraging because it seems like the APHA was finally going to help us a little . . . .
