These pages will be
devoted to the Early Tennessee Walking Horse. Becoming a recognized Breed,
the development of the Tennessee Walking Horse Association of America, the
origin of the Walking Horse, Stallions & Stables from the past.
"To some degree the
Tennessee Walking Horses, like poets, are not born, not made. From the hour
the foals are dropped they "Show Their Stuff" and when a few hours old can
execute the gaits of the walker. These gaits are bred to them, yet as the
poet, gifted by nature and temperament, improves his technique by
painstaking diligence, the horse attains his greatest excellence in
performance of the gaits to which he was bred through patience, training &
frequent use" By:
Gilbert M. Moore 1945
This will be under
construction for some time so please watch for updates
