American Spotted Paso horse

Country Of Origin United States
History and Background The main objective for breeders of the American Spotted Paso horse is combining the smooth gaits of the Peruvian Paso with the colourful coat patterns of the pinto.
The breed originated with a pure black Peruvian Paso stallion named Janchovilla who was bred to pinto mares. Of the resulting foals about 3/4 of them were spotted and all of them carried the lively Paso gaits.
There are two different registries for this breed, each one accommodating animals with different degrees of Paso blood. To register with either of the registries the animal must have one purebred Peruvian Paso parent and exhibit the lateral Paso gait.
