This is interesting because I have no knowledge or experience with MFT horses. I'm from Michigan and saw mostly quarter horses, Arabians and Appaloosas in our 4H experience with our kids. I had a 16 year old quarter horse/old-timey Morgan with a thick neck and she was a doll for the walk/trot class with my younger children and pretty chestnut with a flaxen mane and tail. So gentle and intelligent. This channel brings back lots of good memories. I'll try to comment as I binge your videos to help out your algorithm. God bless you!
That was very very interesting and very well explained I was a little sad that star who just by looking at her was my favorite wasn’t more of a show quality but they all have something about them that makes them all good looking, so I’m glad of RU-vid showed me one of your videos because I’ve been binge watching them all day I’ve always liked gated horses, but I’m more familiar with Pasafino‘s .
Interesting. I know very little about gaited horse breeds, having been a quarter horse and appaloosa mule endurance rider back in the day! Now my main interest as I'm too rickety to ride, is watching FEI dressage . I will definitely be watching your videos and cheering for your kids and horses!
You should also ask questions like: "What do you think (pick whatever you want) I should do? Leave me a comment below". For this vid you could ask: "which horse did you like and why' or "what would you like to see more of" Encourage/engage your viewers to comment. You get the idea, why is this important? 'Does RU-vid promote videos with more comments? Comments play a massive role in increasing your video's reach. The RU-vid algorithm recognizes videos with more comments and pushes them out to a wider audience'
Gaited horses move more laterally and should be worked along a straight line. As an owner of 2 MFT one uber naturally gaited and one not at all. Nugget does have the “bob”
I've never owned a gaited horse as I'm not a fan of how the head shake feels. It strikes me as odd. I am getting older though and I'm wondering if there are gaited horses that don't do the head shake? If you reply, I'd like to thank you in advance for your advice. Love watching your channel (:
Bit curious about your training objective? Will your schooling be directed toward a finished trail to pleasure gaited horse or for the competition show ring?
