>>>> Many are calm, intelligent, sure-footed, and as fast as the Tennessee Walkers, without the high upkeep or drama.
I've known TWH all my life. TWH are not supposed to be high upkeep horses, and certainly not "high drama". If you are seeing that, then you are seeing the effects show breeding, or just plain bad breeding - or poor training. Some of the most mellow and laid back horses I've ever met are TWH...at least prior to my meeting Icelandic's. Both of my TWH are from show lines - but then, most TWH have show horses in their breeding. (It's hard to find one that's not related to at least one of, if not both, Midnight Sun and Merry Go Boy.)
