Neither one of my fjords have tried that trick yet. However, I had a quarter horse that would walk just fine down this path to one particular bush and then start limping big time. There wasn't anything different about the footing before or after this spot - only the bush that I could identify. The limp would suddenly disappear like magic when he was headed home, whether I was leading him or on him for a few feet. It took this happening at least three times and a vet check before we figured out his scheme. The fourth time I put spurs on (didn't have to use them - just made a big deal of putting them on in front of him) and wonder of wonders, the limp disappeared when we came to his favorite place. I don't thing we tend to give enough credit to horses for their creativity!
