Thought i would start a thread on horses/ponies that have tested positive to LWO As Many of them are very minimal, or with no white at all. when breeding its so important to know if your horse/pony carries LWO or not, as i breed & show minis overo is huge in the mini horse/pony world, i now test everything. Picture Below is of Father & Daughter both LWO+

I also have a list somewhere of all the breeds that have LWO, since a lot of people think that QH and apps don't have it.

If it is know that QH don't have tobiano and some people think QH's don't have overo where do they think the white is coming from?

People think that QH don't have "paint" genes since they are mostly solid and they only have more minimal white, when really they can carry lwo and sabino, DW, splash; really all "paint" genes except tobiano.

I know my Maya is LWO+ and she is very minimal white (just her 5-sided star) as you can see below (this is an old pix from when she was first brought to us, she is now a total butterball... ymwhisle )
