My dream horse is a mix of 6: Quarter, Morgan, Arabian, TB, Kiger Mustang, and Akhal-Teke. A Golden Palomino stallion.
As far as breeds you can actually find as a single horse, I love Drum Horses (especially silvery grey dappled tobianos and toveros) and Dun Kiger Mustangs.

My absolute favorite breed will always be the Appaloosa :x Although, I may be a little biased :)) But Appys have been my favorite since I was a young girl and now I own the best Appy mare I could ask for

My favorite breeds in RL are Andalusians and the heavy guys, especially Percherons and Belgian drafts. My dream horse would be a draft mule. I love "dirty" colors the most such as dun, buckskins, and blue roans. I've always wanted a solid black horse as well. Basically, the opposite of everything I like/breed for in HAJ, lol.

Good question. In real life, my favorite is a palomino colored, Quarter Horse. :D

In game, I breed a variety of chocolate palominos/palominos, livers, pearls, and some black/brown

I think I'm crazy about every breed. I like to learn about each one. And a horse of every color is great! Although growing up I've had dapple greys, white, and as a teen I had mostly chestnuts. Chestnuts and paints have my heart for sure! But I LOVE anything with the sooty spot appearance or the deep line pigments. Loud paints . My current mare is a dark bay tovero but has pangerea "lighting around her nose and under belly" and you can see the spots in the bay like the horses I breed here. I have found that it's inherited as pictures of her siblings by the sire and even grand sire has the spotting appearance like the in-game gene sooty plus.
But I love anything that stands out. Like my mare that appears to have a tri colored mane and tail , I like different and a good hearted horse.

@Brandybrookes - is your mare APHA? My pedigree knowledge is pretty limited, unless it’s TBs or, these days, POAs, but I’m always interested.

I honestly like most horse breeds, but I absolutely love Saddlebreds and Knabstruppers!

My favorite favorite kind of horse is a handy one!
I currently have a Mustang, Missouri Foxtrotter, and a Quarter horse. I love them all for different reasons

My dream horse would be a draft x quarter cross. Think American bucking stock. I love the largeness of them, and they can practically pull a house down

As for color wise I like simplicity. I love my dark bay/black who turns almost buckskin in the summer. I’m a sucker for a pretty bay or sorrel. bonus points for chrome and minimal pinto markings

Heifer@ your right on the "mix" my geldings two full siblings ended up just as crazy as he did. They stopped pairing the two horses even though being super great show horses and being gentle themselves , just something with the two created horses hard to work with. My gelding is very intelligent but he also had high fear and not very forgiving if someone made a mistake. He was at the bottom of the pecking order

My mare that's out of a close line to my gelding is also smart . quick learner and has mild fear and is forgiving . Very easy to work with she could be started out by a novice. She is at the bottom of the pecking order.

My old school mare I would say isn't as smart as the other two but she wasn't dumb. It took a couple trys before she mastered things but I also did everything myself with her as a young girl trying to watch videos and read books on how to do the basics training . She is my go to no fear horse. I could take her out on trails and sit quiet while other horses spook over a deer passing by. I could take her all over. Although as a 2yo she had a fear of umbrellas. But that's long gone. She was the quickest to get good with ground manners and good with bathes and fly spray and children.
She was different. She would boss the other horses but she was the type that didn't want much to do with them either. If a human was around she was whinnying at them as close to the gate as possible waiting to be worked with. She was an absolute lover .
Her half siblings on her mom's side were all just like her and so was her mom. Always very kind and gentle natured that stood out from the others.

The Arabian I had as a young girl was also very sweet and kind but she was the bottom of the pecking order and reactive to what other horses did. She reminds me of your average lesson horse today. Teaches kids how to deal and handle with a fidgety horse when tacking or bathing or out riding but also didn't ruin your confidence or do anything to harm you. She taught me alot of things and boosted my confidence. Her foal she had was very similar but would easily get distracted lol but we loved her.

I have always loved horses, since before I knew there were breeds. In the 1970s I had the pleasure to own Arabians, but moved to the big city and had to leave them.
I have since discovered Friesians and oh my goodness, they are glorious. And I am not super thrilled with what has happened to Arabians.
Color? Honestly, my favorite color is bay! (but not here in the game)

Appaloosa's, I grew up with them and the Colorado Rangerbreds, very close to the Appie, but more of what I grew up with in Appaloosa than what the Appie is now. My Mom and sister still run the family farm and have both, I myself no longer am a major part just help out when needed. I do still have Colorado Rangerbreds,but no longer breeding, just left with my foundation stock. Colorado Rangerbred are a line breed, when founded there was only 50 spots for registry and they had to trace back to the two original stallions. Those that could not be registered because there was no spots left became the American Appaloosa Horse Club. They opened the registry in 1964. I do have the stallion book that traces my mares and stud (now gelding) right back to both foundation stallions.

I loved and will always love a splash white bay/buckskin. Gotta have 4 white ankles and either a bald face or a large white stripe. Makes my heart race! In fact both my cat and dog have little white boots so I can confirm it transcends into other species :))

I own 2 Straight Egyptian, Asil, Al Khamsa Arabians in RL, a wild bay and a dapple grey! They’re my favorite and all I’ll ever own! They’re the “purest” of them all with every ancestor verified to be of Bedouin descent. :)
