@Indiancreekstable i agree, but the loping does look a little weird, but i agree totally with you :)
-
Couldn't agree more with KadajsKatana - This head bobbing is Ugly and continues every year. Not a pleasure to watch at all. Low head carriage is penalized, so why is head bob OK? About time this was addressed. I am a Pleasure horse fanatic but I am finding this so predictable and boring to watch 3 years later. About time someone brought this subject up.

This is wonderful, I love the AQHA, it`s fabulous. And yes, we do inject our horses and give them drugs...but inly to make them sound so their not in pain. We don`t have to do that, we could ride them like that or send them for meat like many haertless people do, or even bute them and sell them, but we don`t! Stop hating, half the things you say these horses do, aren`t true, I`m sorry if you don`t know horses or how to ride..

@crstardust jerk, i never said it didn't happen. I'm saying not ALL of them have it! just because your online doesn't mean u need to be a bitch
-
Geez, I'm impressed...a barrel horse no less.....you must be some talented horseman...NO, my horse didn't stagger like a drunk as they do now...doesn't take a Phi Beta Kappa key to see what's happening out there.....a group of exhibitors influenced by trainers who should know better and a group of judges who neither understand "impulsion" nor forward movement....I shall leave you to your contemplations of your navel as this entire diatribe has been rendered moot...Adios.
-
Just another troll ...why the h*ll would I or anyone else want to meet you? A lotta ego talking....If you knew ANYTHING at all about movement..the LAST group of horses you'd ever endorse are the current losers out in the WP pen; Spell, "Forward", spell "Impulsion"... so many complaints have been written to the AQHA and to the AQHA Journal about this BS class.......are you friggin blind and deaf? I think so. SHAME on you for endorsing it. Nuff said about it....move on
-
@crstardust less than i do. i never said you endorsed tricked up horses, I dont either. so yeah whatever. by definition a horse with a three beat lope in the order of the legs hitting the ground on the left lead is right hind then left hind and right front then the left front. a four beat lope is when each foot hits the ground at a different time. I think you need to get facts before saying that I don't know anything. but think what you want since youve never met me or anything.
-
@crstardust yes I'm clueless since i also ride a cutting horse and i am training a barrel horse. and btw you don't know me and you will never meet me so dont assume that i dont know what a three beat and a four beat lope is, and yes i do know what a horse that loped in the front and trots in the back is because I recently had that problem with my horse. and if your horse qualifies for the aqha worlds in wp, obviously your horse "staggers like a drunk" your words not mine so obviously you know

I understand what some are getting at, but this video actually depicts a correct Western Pleasure AQHA lope which is in fact a 3-beated gate. A 4-beat lope is where the horse trots in the hind legs & canters in the front (man made). Their hock is not engaged at all. Some head movement is normal but the more balanced the horse is the less it will bob. And no, not just any horse will move like this. This is decades of superb breeding at its best. Surprisingly enough these horses "lope" at birth.

Horses are naturally very athletic-if not, they don't survive out on the range! Like humans, some are more athletic than others and more naturally talented in the way they place their legs in movement, lift their ribcage and shoulders, etc. The good pleasure trainer treats the horse with kindness and patience so they learn to perform well and willingly. These horses use their muscles like a gymnast on the balance beam. It's not unnatural - it's excellent body control, balance and athleticism.
