Belt Buckle selection for Horsehair belts
Pinto is a color of a horse so a Pinto is not a true breed but a color breed. Any breed of horse, utility horse, pony or miniature horse that happens to have the color marking of a Paint/Pinto but is not a Quarter Horse, Thoroughbred or Paint bred horse can be called a Pinto.
Spotted horses were the rage in 17th century Europe but when the fashionable fad ended, large numbers of the horses were shipped to the Americas, many of which were turned loose to run wild. Highly prized by the Native Americans the color became popular in throughout the United States, which now has the greatest number of pinto horses in the world.
The Pinto Horse Association (PtHA) registers horses based on color. The word "pinto" is Spanish for "paint". The Pinto Horse Association of America was started in the 1950's to give the owners and riders of pintos a show circuit and breed organization.
