[QUOTE="cford, post: 721495, member: 13648"] get a farrier that can shoe him to his correct angles, meaning angle of sholders, withers etc. Also, lunge him alot to get his muscle built up, but slow slow slow until he gets his leads correct and is good slow then speed up. I would also ride him up hill alot, once you get his muscles built up. This is an old gaited horse trick that helps their gait and getting them back on their rear end a touch more. If you say your horse appears to be on his front end alot, it will likely help. Also I would do alot of roll backs along a fence with him. Likely most important will be to get him soft, make him bend and flex side to side and at the poll. That will allow for collection which will lead to much better gaits. It will take time, and more that time it will be patients but keep trying it will come. Good luck [/QUOTE]
