Locking Stifle Syndrome in the Gaited Horse
Переглядів 45 тис.6 років тому
A common physical affliction among gaited horses is upward fixation of the patella, otherwise known as locking stifles.The symptoms of this may be so subtle as to cause the horse owner many nights of restless, worried wondering, or so obvious that it seems an otherwise healthy horse has become functionally useless. The good news is that oftentimes these animals - even those with very pronounced...
How Saddle Fitting and Bitting Affects How a Gaited Horse Moves
Переглядів 9 тис.6 років тому
All horses, but especially gaited horses, have a good amount of movement in their muscles through their loins, back, and shoulders while moving under saddle. They require a saddle and bit that allows them complete comfort and freedom of movement, so they can round up and collect naturally under saddle. Proper collection is key for your horse to be able to perform an evenly timed 4-beat gait in ...

    Fun fact: before the invention of photography, especially motion photography, nearly every artist got the footfall sequence of a walking horse wrong because it is so hard to track with the naked eye. Same with the gallop. They understood that the horse leaves the ground but they didn't understand where in the sequence this happened. That is why you see old paintings of running horses off the ground with their forelegs and hindlegs extended. In contrast, paintings and drawings depicting trotting or pacing horses generally get it right.

    This video was so helpful!! I have a 4-yo TWH and am currently riding her in a "tom thumb" type bit (a hand-me-down from a neighbor who has several walking horses and used to breed, show, etc). My horse works fine in this old bit, but after reading online that tom thumb isn't the best option, I've been searching for something better. This is by far the best explanation I've gotten for why certain bits are better than others and now I feel like I truly understand how each type of bit works. I went ahead and ordered the comfort gait training transition bit and I can't wait to try it out! Thank you thank you!

    Aye, this is the best instructional video about gaits I ever saw. I understand now why Tennessee Walkers (natural ones!) and Racking horses are the smoothest. Here is a question though: what defines the Paso Fino and Paso Largo gaits, and the Icelandic horse's gaits, like the tolt? Where do they fall on the spectrum?

    Thank you for offering this video🫶. First rider's body is hindering the horse to move freely. Second rider is moving WITH the horse (not the proverbial intercourse-movement) and therefore allowing the horse freedom and balance resulting in getting a little gait.

    The grey spotted horse was not trotting. The diagonals were not even. The black horse with the yellow shirted rider looks sore in the near (left) hip - it’s not following through as much as the offside (right) leg.

      Congratulations on going gaited! I'm glad you found us :) Loping/cantering can be a great way to help a horse who is laterally-oriented break up their muscle and neurological memory to help even out their footfall pattern. Loping up hills can be really beneficial especially, since it helps engage their back-ends, which we want them to do when performing an evenly timed 4-beat gait. There are some caveats here, though, so I'm going to include a couple of links on our website that discuss this very topic that I hope you find helpful :) gaitedhorsesaddles.com/blogs/news/can-i-canter-my-gaited-horse gaitedhorsesaddles.com/blogs/news/cantering-the-gaited-horse-q-a gaitedhorsesaddles.com/blogs/news/how-and-when-to-trot-or-canter-your-gaited-horse Jamie Evan

    hi, i do hope you can help me out a little. my mare (hafe appaloosa halfe german riding pony, now 20yo) has always had trouble to perform a clear 3 beat galop. what she does naturally is a 4 beat, beeing discribed as ‚trotting hindfoots and galopping frontfoots‘. might this be a gait as well? or is it just a beat problem, as trainers have been telling me for 14years? mind, none of them are gait experienced. thank you for all the information you‘ re providing!!!

    • @saturnslipper
      @saturnslipper 2 роки тому

      After rewatching this video I agree that it is most important to allow your horse to do what comes naturally. I would never be concerned with 3 or 4 beats. Your pony has its own way of moving...yes it does sound like your mare is gaited. She sounds like a fun horse to ride. I would watch for signs of arthritis and pain/damage that come with age. At some point every good pony needs to be retired.
