  • Someone who wants a world renowned horse!

  • No really you are pathetic this animal is not running he is doing his NATURAL gait. He does this barefoot and lives what he does. Do your homework before you down people please.

  • holy heck! what a mover! Love this horse! we need to cross this horse with mine! the colt would have wings!

  • @cathyseals27

    Thank lets cross them. The babies I have seen by Dig already have wings as colts so crossed with a fast mare the baby would have jet fuel speed. LOL

  • @cathyseals27

    Then lets cross. The babies I have seen out of Dig so far all seem to have wings so crossed with a mare with speed the baby would be fueld by jet fuel. LOL

  • how do you hvae him shoed? just wondering.

  • @Fastgate4beat

    Digger is shod in a keg shoe just like a quarter horse or jumper but he does have a longer foot.

  • I am sorry you feel this way. This horse is always happy. He loves what he does. All I have to do is hold the bit up and he takes it from me. You must not know gaited horses to make that comment.

  • @hoglorfen Your information is not correct. Gaited horses were much more prevalent and sought after before the advent of hard roads, but they were never common. Only the middle and upper classes could afford them. Virtually all cross breeds would have had some gaited individuals, but if the trait is not natural in the locality, it takes a great deal of breeding effort to maintain. All gaited horses breeds have a common ancestry - but I'm talking 100,000 years ago.

  • Love the music, love the name, love the horse! I am a big fan of you and Grave Digger. Ablsolutely LOVE that you don't stack and chain him. I wish every person that raised TWHs would emulate your love, kindness, and responsiblity for this wonderful breed.

  • Every now and then I have bring up this video to get a thrill.

    

  • WHO names their horse Gravedigger? I mean WTF, who DOES that?!

  • Is this an Arab horse?

  • the music is horrible

    

  • WOW!!! He's incredible!!!! I'm blown away by this handsome boy! Great soundtrack to the video, too- what fun to watch :)

  • In fact, during the Middle Ages gaited horses were very much sought after by merchants and travelers because of the comfortable (and fast) movement, they were very much "peoples' horses" for this reason. The war horses of the mounted knights were not gaited, because they had to be able to passage and piaffe easily (to spin and switch speed in battle). Look up the Spanish Jennet or Palfrey for more info.

  • @Seapaddler This gait is found in most feral and ancient horse breeds in the world. Marwari horses in India, Russian Basjkir, Icelandic, Mustangs, they all have this gait and show it at pasture and in the wild. It was much more common in earlier times, during the Middle Ages both Friesians, P.R.E. (Pura Raza Española) and most European warm bloods were "gaited", and were more common than those who weren't. When classical dressage was developed the gaits were considered "lowly" and were bred out.
