Gaited?

I know he is. He'll gait when he's going up a hill or nervous or in a rush.


But this photo just cracks me up. Like he's trying to be a single footer but kind of failing at it.

Maybe he is coming out or going into a canter from a running walk or something similar?

I know my Walker looks like Scooby Doo sometimes in the pasture. It's like her legs do their own thing sometimes. haha

Nope there was no canter. He doesn't canter at all in the pasture. Just this little gait all over the place. It's really funny. I ought to try and video tape it.

2nd picture is definetely gaited.

1st? Gaited. Looks like a running walk of some kind.

He might have gotten excited and threw a bunch of random gaits together

lol, the second photo is an example of a racking horse. I only posted it to be used as an example.


His legs are so long I think he gets confused on how to use 'em.
