  • Beautiful Morgan.....and working him on pavement does a world of good for his legs. ;)

  • @o0sunsi0o We weren't really "working" him, this is just a 2 minute video...we don't work horses on pavement, but will video on pavement to record the recongnizable sound of a gaited horse. And to get a more clear video of the legs and feet to check out the footfall. it's interesting to see the smooth

  • Wow, what a breathtaking horse!

  • I want one!

  • @o0sunsi0o He is doing a slow gait. Gaited horses are much easier on their legs because there is no suspension phase in their gait, so there is no point at which their whole weight comes crashing down on one or two legs, as it does in a trot or canter. I had a gaited mare who worked on pavement most of her life, often at very high speeds, who was still quite sound and still being ridden at 28. She was not an outlier. I've known many others still working at similar ages.

  • @valizoe1 Good to hear, just love the liver chestnut and flaxen mane & tail what a looker. :)

  • @valizoe1 Yes, I know this. I have family who shows. I did not mean they are showing the Morgans in a gaited show. But they are shown.

  • @LoveHorseDust Gosh I missed this post. Love Horse Dust, if you'll look on the American Morgan HOrse Association website you'll see that gaited Morgans are readily accepted by AMHA. See the Morgan Single-footing Horse Association as well as another gaited morgan association. The reason they are not shown is because USEF does not have a judging standard for Morgans in gaited classes like American Saddlebreds have 5 gaited classes. OK by me though...don't want ours stacked or chained

  • Regardless of what anybody says about Morgans being gaited or not (and purebred Morgans can be; I've seen it), that is a beautiful Morgan! Focus on the beauty and interesting color of that very cool horse and quit fussing! I'm a Morgan owner of 6 Morgans and have been riding Morgans for 33 years!

  • @killacitybaby Many Morgans are gaited... Gaited Morgans are shown in regional and national gaited horse shows such as FOSH. I am a gaited horse judge for 14 breeds with the Independent Judging Association. I love all Morgans but choose to ride the gaited ones. Why don't you come to Missouri to try one out...you might not want to show one, but I guarantee you'll love to ride one especially a long distance.
