A pinto horse is genetically created when an allele for a spotting pattern is present. The genes that create the underlying base coat color are not related to the genes that create white spotting. Collect A horses are created by Deborah McDermott, a sculptor living in Southern California. She grew up as a typical horse-crazy little girl who loved horse models and drawing horses. She never dreamed that someday her equine sculptures would be used as the basis of a new model horse collection created by Collect A! As a sculptor, she observes the anatomy, movement and expressions of horses as well as their unique qualities that make each horse an individual. All CollectA products are rigorously tested to ensure they meet the highest safety standards. CollectA horses are created by Deborah McDermott, a sculptor living in Southern California.
