White spreads up from the bottom of the horse, and some of the base color may show at the topline.
When Dominant White has visible edges, they are usually roaned and grainy, similar to Sabino.
Notable Interactions:

  • ❗ Lethal White: Homozygous Dominant White (WW) results in a fatal condition known as 'Lethal White Syndrome.'  If a breeding results in a foal with WW, that foal cannot be born. Slots and items will still be consumed, so plan your breedings with care!
