Palomino horses sure are something special! They have a unique golden color with a white mane and tail. Within this color type, there are several different shades from light to dark. Many palomino horses will also change shades seasonally. The summer sun will often light their coat, while their winter hair usually comes in darker.

These horses can be very rich in color! This deep shade contrasts beautifully with the horse's white mane.
