We certainly can! I've had Paso Finos, a Half-Andalusian (Morgan cross), and currently have a Quarter Horse (foundation cutting horse bloodlines) who fox trots. Studied dressage, and use it as foundation training for the horses (including the gaited horses), and for students when I was giving lessons (don't do dressage shows). Have done small jumps as a training exercise.
i think you mean you live in North Carolina? I'm in SW Missouri in a very rural area, surrounded by gravel roads. Riding the roads and schooling work are what my horse activities consist of these days.
So glad to hear that you give your horse activities outside the arena, as that makes for a well-rounded horse who learns the wherewithal to be smart about his surroundings and his own wellbeing, which helps him take better care of you.

Awesome! That makes me so much happier. Those wackos over there can keep that forum. Most of the original posters either died or left.
I own two Warmblood. My mare I bred to Parco and the resulting colt is amazing. My trainer loves him. Just got back trail riding him.
