What is most important is how thosefourfeet hit the ground.

It is developed, owned, bred ,and judged by trail riders for the qualities of pleasure trail, competition trail and the working trail. While most Single Footing Horse are bred primarily for trail riding, many owners enjoy showing their horses.
