The ideal walk will be square. It can go either to the diagonal or the
lateral.

Is their walk to the diagonal or the lateral?
In Southern gaited horse circles (and maybe more widespread too?) a camel
walk is not considered a good thing. It's a pacey walk, a clue to what
camels do.
But then the common names can be misleading. I don't think pigs really
pace, do they? I
Hi Judy,
The ideal walk will be square. It can go either to the diagonal or the
lateral.
So could that can also be true of a gait like tolt - if a faster gait is the
same footfall as a walk and is square, then it would be neither lateral nor
diagonal???

A running walk can be slightly diagonal
A running walk can be slightly diagonal or slightly lateral. Any more
than slightly would make it a different gait.
Bingo! I think that's true of any gait, right? - there's a SLIGHT range
that is very hard to distinguish but if it's more than a slight difference,
it becomes the neighboring

But if I can't tell a step-pace from a foxtrot,

Wow! Well said. I was surprised to read this post,

I notice that 'walk' is next to 'square' - yet Gat will sometimes do a
walk that is lateral, if that makes sense.
A walk, ideally, will be square: 1-2-3-4.
However, some walks can leans towards diagonal or lateral.
It sounds like Gat is more laterally conformed, so that makes sense.
