About the Albino Breed
Many
breeds of animals and birds produce from time to time pure white
specimens, and the white or Albino horse, which is of course
a colour type, not a breed, has since 1937 been fostered and
developed in America by the American Albino horse Club. The
foundation sire is said to have been “Old King”,
foaled in 1906, with breeding unknown, though he is believed
to have been of Arabian-Morgan stock. With very careful selection,
particularly in regard to colour, any type of Albino horse can
be developed, whether for riding or for draught. Since “Old
King” is regarded as the foundation sire, a great many
Albino horses used for circuses and parades are descended from
him.
Albino horses are bred for those to whom a white horse appeals,
and naturally many are used for ceremonial purposes and in the
circus ring. Such being the case, a large number of these horses
have been taught the traditional acts of the performing horse,
and the claim that the Albino is a horse of exceptional intelligence
may well be based on this. That he is a beautiful horse is true
enough, but it must be remembered that as a ceremonial or circus
horse he is shown at his best and is exhibited in ideal surroundings
and handles expertly – advantages which many other horses
do not enjoy.
It is claimed of this line of Albino horses that the stock is
very prepotent, particularly in regard to colour, and that even
when crossed with coloured mares they produce many beautiful
snow-white foals. If, as is supposed, “Old King”
was of Arabian-Morgan stock, this prepotency can well be understood,
for this is a marked characteristic of both these breeds.
