There is a fairly new horse registry called "Rocky Mountain Horse".
Is that what he is?

| Actually, its a reg'd Paso Fino. They claim they are as smooth as silk to ride, and I know they can go all day. This horse is only five, and we bought her as a four year old for the kids. Not very often you find a horse that young that makes a kids horse. I took my six year old for a ride the other day, and he handled her just fine all by himself. We even rode by a pasture with six or eight horses in it for about half a mile, and she paid them no mind while they all did the usual things on the other side of the fence.

I'd have never guessed a paso......it looks bigger than all the one's I've seen, but it could just be the picture.
My MIL wants one so bad.

Paso Fino went through my mind. I was around them a bit in W. Montana, but they were smaller than this one. The size kind of threw me.
Those Paso Finos were gentle, nice horses.
But I'm still partial to the QH or TBxQH cross.

| There is a Pas breeder near here... Have seen their horses from time to time.. Always seem like nice animals but about all I know about horses is what end is the front and what end is the back.. Think about getting some for cattle work from time to time but wouldnt even know where to start..

| Tennessee Walker? In the picture it makes me think it's a gaited horse.
