Doc has a 'medicine hat' spot pattern that is very striking. He looks like he has a little hat on his head from the dark spot on the top of his head including his dark colored ears. Indian horses so-marked were highly-prized by Native American cultures. These horses marked with 'war bonnets' were believed to possess certain powers that would render their riders invincible in battle. Several Native American tribes, including the Sioux, Comanches, Blackfeet, Kiowa and Utes, regarded Paints as being the most desirable type of horse to possess and breed and while most tribes practiced some sort of selective breeding, and routinely gelded inferior stallions, few, if any, 'Medicine Hats' were ever altered. The marking itself continues to be universally seen as a positive symbol. A symbol with mystical roots, of late its appeal has been more genetic-based. It has been established that Native Americans reserved their deepest reverence for the most-white Medicine Hats. Could one of the reasons for the high esteem have been the fact that those Paints produced the highest percentage of color? Whether you agree or not, it does make for an interesting twist to the "white is right" Paint breeding theory that many of today's most successful breeders believe to be true. We think this same theory could apply to donkeys as well.

Doc is very stocky and wide between his legs with an unusually pretty head with a perfect bite. His spots are dark brown with a few gray spots on his legs. His 'medicine hat' marking even looks like it ties under his throat latch. Click here for another photo of this baby's sire, Circle C Hilite who he very much so resembles.
