Ah, the black and white horse. I think what makes them so popular is the striking contrast of pure black against pure white (at least when they are clean!). I think it helps, too, that for most breeds they are rarer than other colors, and people like to have uncommon things.
If you have a black and white horse, how do you come up with a name that is fitting. One that gives tribute to it’s monochromatic coat color but still has a little spice and pizzazz. If you haven’t already, check out my post that covers 11 breeds where you can find black and white horses.
