Interesting comments. And, in a general way, probably correct. There are good working ranch type Tennessee Walkers being raised in Montana and Canada which are appreciated by endurance and trail riders.
Because I have only ridden the one TWH, I have no way of knowing if he is some sort of exception. Perhaps he is. Because we've always lived on the same farm, I have the unique perspective of riding several "performance" breeds over the same terrain for 44 years. My TWH is the most athletic horse I've ever ridden and the very best mountain horse I've ever owned. I doubt he would get much of a dressage score. Nancy
