:I thought some horses come by the gait natural but need to be trained to refine it so that they do not break the gait. others do have to be trained to do certain gaits. My advice would be to ask the breeder of the horse you are thinking of buying. I am sure we will have more replies to this question since this is such a great community.

Hi Friends

I thought I would just add a little information. This is an area that, other than working with an Icelandic, I have very little information about.. but... in September 2002 issue of Horse and Rider, there is an interesting article on gaited horses. It takes a little different slant as it is highlighting gaiteds that have done distance riding. Title of article is "Going the Distance". Hope you enjoy it like I did.
