To me, coat color is not the most important quality of a horse, but I do like it though! Colors that really catch my eye are the browns and the reds, especially the bays. As long as their character is the right one for me, I don’t mind the color of the coat.

I really don’t care about colour, just the horse on the inside…. good thing to go by for humans, too. But i really like whites an dapples!

Color isn’t very important to me. It’s the personality that ties the knot. Altough, I’m a sucker for chestnuts.

Colors read how others approach the horse. For me, it’s a great way to think, “okay, people see this horse as a beauty inside just as it is outside. let’s see how true that is.” Other than the occasional rose-grey, I don’t mind treating every horse to a treat or two.

I think coat color is just about how much care you want to spend on your horses health. If the horse is black you might have to cool him down more often. If he has pink blotches of skin under a grey coat then he may get a sunburn more often. If you don’t want to worry as much then a brownish horse could be a better choice.

I saw a shirt that said something like there not being a bad color for a good horse. There couldn’t be anything more true, but in my opinion, color is a cherry on top!

I am much more interested in what is going on between my horse’s ears than his coat color. I have to admit, when I started shopping for a new horse three years ago, I looked at color, but not as my primary criteria.

In my mind a horse’s coat color is just that, a color. Sure, everyone wants to have a beautiful buckskin, but would you sacrifice personality to get a color? As the saying goes, “You can’t judge a book by its cover.”

Even though colors are pretty, when it comes to horses I don’t care at all! If the horse is nice and sweet and smart and obediant, I will look at it no other way except as a friend.

I don’t think the color of a horse matters. What’s in the inside of a horse is what counts.
