![]() Sabino: The sabino has an entirely different white pattern, usually including wide blazes and completely white legs. Or, he might be almost all white, showing base color only on his muzzle, ears, chest, and flanks. For example, this horse might have basic tobiano coloring, but with a bald or “apron” face. Tovero: The tovero horse shows both tobiano and overo characteristics. Where color meets white, the borders are often irregular, and the spots of color may be “bordered” (surrounded by a mixture of colored and white hairs). There’s typically a lot of white on his head overos may be bald-faced, apron-faced, or bonnet-faced. Overo: With the overo, the white originates on the horse’s underside, and rarely crosses his back. His mane and tail are usually two colors. His spots are regular and distinct, with clear borders. His head is normally like that of a solid-color horse, either solid or showing a star, snip, strip, or blaze. Tobiano: The tobiano (or “toby”) typically shows white over his back and up his legs it’s common for two, three, or all four of a tobiano’s legs to be white below his hocks and knees. ![]() Here’s a rundown of these patterns, plus a few common variations. Although Paints come in a variety of colors with different markings, there are only three specific coat patterns: tobiano, overo, and tovero. Markings can be any shape or size, and located virtually anywhere on the Paint’s body. Each Paint Horse has a particular combination of white and any color of the equine spectrum: black, bay, brown, chestnut, dun, grulla, sorrel, palomino, buckskin, gray, or roan.
