The origin of these breeds can be traced far back in time to the Americas. There are various theories, but most likely horses dropped by the Spanish conquerors were bred in the steppes of America. Gradually settlers and farmers noticed these wonderful animals. They domesticated and used them for their own needs. With time, they began to breed the horses and currently the Quarter Horse Association has the largest register of horses in the world. In the breeding process a variety of colors appeared that Americans liked very much. They deepened the selection of these colorful horses and the Paint Horse breed appeared. Paint Horse later became a favorite breed of many in the United States and around the world.

Typical of both breeds is their exceptional susceptibility to socialization. Their calm temperament and ability to work. In addition, the highest speed in a race was registered with a Quarter horse - 88km/h. What is specific about Paint Horse is that it is not just a horse with colorful fur. Unlike ordinary colorful horses, Paint's coat color matches the color of the skin beneath it. The connection between the colored spots resembling a "zipper" is typical. Paint Horse was highly prized by cowboys moving huge herds of cattle over long distances. Specific for the breeds are their calmness, strength and courage.
