American Paint Horse (Tobiano)
A paint horse with the tobiano (tow be yah' no) pattern will normally have spots that will extend over the neck and the chest areas. These regular and distinct spots often have the appearance of a shield and they can be round or oval shaped. Usually, a dark color will cover at least one but sometimes both flanks. All four legs will normally be white from the knees down and the tail is usually two different colors. The head markings will be the same as solid colored horses consisting of a star, snip, strip or a blaze.
