In 1954 Leslie Boomhower crossed a Shetland stallion with a Appaloosa mare, the result was a small pony with an Appaloosa marking that was called Black Hand.
Later there were outcrosses to Arab and Quarter Horses, and breed standard calls for a pony with the appearance of a miniature Quarter Horse Arab cross.
