OMG All my TWHs canter and gallop. WHYYYYY?

People are crazy. I've owned four 100% purebred tennessee walkers and they call all canter and gallop. It is kind of different than quarters and thoroughbreds, but they certainly can do it. We allow ours to run if they want to, it doesn't "mess up their gaits" at all. I used to own a show horse, we raced him with neighborhood horses. He always won and STILL acted perfect at shows and he had the smoothest rack EVER. Hope I helped! :D
