This is the statement that really struck me:

"For example, chestnut horses are described as not so full of spirits, which may be a big advantage for their taming," Ludwig explained. "Dilutions and spotting patterns are linked to gene defects, or a less effective mode of operation of receptors, which possibly causes more tame behavior."

Perhaps there is some truth to the belief that certain colors correlate with certain personality traits.
