You can't really teach a TWH to gait because it is supposed to be natural for them to gait. You can teach a Saddlebred but they have to have the bloodlines and ability. You can use corrective shoeing and other techniques to improve their gait if they are trotty or pacey.

we have done it before...several times. this spotted TWH that we bought as a yearling that we broke and everything wouldnt ever rack at all and you couldnt get it in him but we tought him how to and made a good chunk of money off of him.

It's different with a young horse though because most of them need some time to develop their gaits.

That's how my mom and dad are feeling right now. If it doesn't have awesome potential or is already trained, it's being sold.
