Appaloosa Horse Breed
Appaloosa is a breed of horse derived from the Spanish horse that was imported to North America in the 18th century. Their development is said to originate from the Nez Perce in North America. They are work horses as well as leisure horses, which are particularly popular in the western sector.
Appaloosa have a typical body structure for western horses in a mostly square frame. This includes a small head that fits the horse with large, alert eyes and a straight nose line, then a sloping, well-muscled shoulder, then a short, strong back and a sloping croup, also heavily muscled.
These qualities enable the horses to be fast and agile, especially over short distances, as was particularly needed in the past on ranch work in America.
Nowadays, however, specialized types are also bred, depending on the purpose for which you want to use them. Otherwise, the horses stand out due to their characteristic color patch pattern. The Appaloosa is often a tiger piebald.
However, from mixed-heirloom / heterozygous parents there are also foals without characteristics and without typical coat markings. The characteristic features by which one can also recognize many monochrome Appaloosa are the “human eyes” and the spotted skin, which can be recognized wherever it is not covered by fur, for example on the nostrils, around the eyes or on the genitals.
The striped hooves with a dark crown edge are also caused in this way. These characteristics are also used as a criterion for the regular registration of the horses. Appaloosa have perseverance and motivation.
