The Quarter Horse is a versatile, intelligent, docile and beautiful breed and is crossed with many other breeds to improve other bloodlines. Paints and Appaloosas can be bred to full blooded QHs and still be considered full Paints and Appys. When bred to the Arabian the cross is called a 'quar-ab' and these crosses can be registered 1/2 Arab and can compete at Arabian shows in the 1/2 Arab classes. By selective cross-breeding new breeds can be created. One of the newest breeds of horses is called 'American Warmblood'. Many breeders use the Quarter Horse to cross with larger European warmbloods to create this new breed of American sporthorse.
