@Waschenfelderheidi usually you need sires and dams to be registered to prove lineage, but you can always reach out to whatever association you'd like to register and they may have a process to do what you would like. Worse case scenario they say no and you're in no different position than you are now 🤷♂️
Most of your american breeds are not very big . Is there a reason for this and does every foal naturally gait. I dont like to see the sometimes abusive show classes for these animals .Your own horses look so happy and obviously well cared for.
The breeds definitely vary in size. Our foals are noticeably gaiting after a few hours walking. The show horse folks are known for abusive behavior to get exaggerated movements which are unnatural and absolutely unnecessary. We have maintained for a long time that we never have nor will condone that treatment to such a wonderful breed let alone animal
I have not seen many ranching operations using TN Walking horses. I find it interesting. I enjoy your videos.
Glad you do, thanks for watching! We use our Walkers for everything unless we're training a non-gaited client horse
I would love to register my yearling and 4 year old but both parents aren’t papered/registered sadly. Would love learning how to!
