"The palomino is considered a color breed. Unlike the Appaloosa, which is a distinct breed that also happens to have a unique color preference, any breed or type of horse usually may be registered as palomino if they are properly golden-colored"

So yes they are called a 'breed' BUT today its a color breed. For specific care instructions i would find out what breed . For exsample my palomino pony was an 'austrailian stock pony'.

I had a palomino stock pony, a grey arab and a dapple grey Thoroughbred Who all recived the same basic care - grooming, exercise ect. (supplimented feed differed between animals)

I did some research but couldn't find anything on specific care for palominos.
The only thing i used to spend some extra time on was a good groom come summer to bring out the shine.
