The palomino is a breed and a color. The breed just has certain rules the horse must follow. like the parents must be palomino, and the horse must be a certain shade of gold, ect. The palomino as a color is just a golden color with a white mane and tail and dark skin, versus light pink skin, which would classify the horse as a champagne.

∙ 13y agoPalomino is a color classification and not a breed. There are several breeds that accept the palomino color in their registry. The AQHA (Quarter Horse) and the APHA (American Paints) accept this color. The Arabian registry will also accept the palomino color in their 1/2 Arab registry.* Mr. Ed, one of the most famous palominos, was actually a Saddlebred.
So palomino colored horses can be found anywhere in the world but they are much more predominant in the stock-type breeds such as Quarter Horses.
*Full-blooded Arabs can't produce the palomino color but if you have an Arab x-cross it can be registered as a 1/2 Arab and can participate in 1/2 Arab classes at Arabian shows.
