Gaited Horses are the best kind of horses, there is nothing more fun then floating down the trail at fast speeds yet feeling incredibly safe doing so, but to newcomers, they can be confusing. Pacing and trotting are not what gaited horses were bred to do. So if you are not floating down the trail you have come to right place to learn how to do so. I do not use any gimmicks, crazy shoeing, or severe bits. Our horses gait well, because we have worked on their gaits and brought it out through hard work and repetition. You can also have a horse that gaits well! 

Please watch the videos and read as much as you can. Education is the key to learning how to get gaited horses to gait, how to recognize their gait by site and how to feel the difference in their gaits. 
My clients have  many different breeds of gaited horses. They are all great horses. Don't waste time dreaming about them. Buy one today and start your adventures tomorrow.
