In Britain, somebody crossed an Appaloosa with an Icelandic (or perhaps the horses made the decision). Icelandics come in over 40 different colors--from silver dapple to cream to dappled grays to all variations of pinto--but Appaloosa. The closest you get to Appaloosa in an Icelandic horse is some "ink spots." So here is what an Appalossa-colored Icelandic would look like. I have to admit this cross is very cute and talented also. Too bad Stripes is in England or I know a lot of people who would be tempted to buy this horse.
My pony is a cross between Icelandic and Appaloosa! I am looking for ways to get the tolt back into him as I suspect it's been suppressed. Would love to stay connected.
