The main objective for breeders of the American Spotted Paso horse is combining the smooth gaits of the Peruvian Paso<\/a> with the colorful coat patterns of the pinto<\/a>. The breed originated with a pure black Paruvian 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.<\/p>\n 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 Paruvian Paso parent and exhibit the lateral Paso gait. The goal of breeding is generally to preserve Paso bloodlines, with enough outside blood to produce pinto patterns. <\/p>\n Move with a four-beat lateral gait<\/p>\n Head is small with a slightly convex profile Must possess an obvious pinto pattern<\/a>.<\/p>\n Kind and willing <\/p>\n General riding *All links open in a new window<\/small> Intro The main objective for breeders of the American Spotted Paso horse is combining the smooth gaits of the Peruvian Paso with the colorful coat patterns of the pinto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6023,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[6],"class_list":["post-104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-usa","tag-pinto"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8943,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104\/revisions\/8943"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6023"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theequinest.com\/breeds\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
