Welcome to Painted Rocks Ranch
Breeding the world's most colorful breeds!
The Appaloosa's heritage is as colorful and unique as its coat pattern. Usually noticed and recognized because of its spots and splashes of color, the abilities and beauty of this breed are more than skin deep. Appaloosas are found in nearly every discipline. Setting speed records on the race track, excelling at advanced levels of dressage, jumping, games, reining, roping, pleasure, endurance and as gentle family horses - any of these roles can be filled by the versatile Appaloosa. Their eager-to-please attitudes and gentle dispositions make them a pleasure to work with in any area.
Here at the ranch we are dedicated to breeding Appaloosas with correct patterns of the leopard complex as well as the special trait "Cow Sense".
Let your imagination carry you back to a simpler time. A time when wide open spaces under clear, crisp skies beckoned to come explore the wild frontier. Rediscover those basic values and simple pleasures on the back of a colorful horse. Celebrate this chance to return to the roots of the American West with a unique, living legend - the American Paint Horse. Cherished by the finest horsemen of the Western frontier, both Native Americans and cowboys sought the hardy horses loudly splashed with color.
Much like our Appy breeding program, our Paints will also be bred to have loud colors and splashs of the tobiano, overo, and tovero patterns found in the Paint breed of which has made them famous for and the special trait "Cow Sense".
