Do you say this horse's name as:?

Question

Tennessee Walking horse or the Tennessee Walker? Walking...Walker? I've heard people say it both ways. I say walker. I'm just curious to see how many other people call it a Tennessee walker or Tennessee walking horse.

Answer 1

I say tennessee walker, but I think there offical name is T walking horse. I think most people say walker because it is shorter :)

Answer 2

The formal name is Tennessee Walking Horse. Most people, however, do refer to it as the Tennessee Walker.

Answer 3

Walker

Answer 4

Walker

Answer 5

Both ways are fine. People usually cut it down to walker, but on official papers it is walking horse. I say walker myself. And so do every other person I know. I'm from Oklahoma, and I'll have to admit our grammer ain't the best. Butter, sounds like Budder, and Kitten, sounds like Kiddin. If you want to find offical info on them, you would have to type Tennessee Walking Horse.

Answer 6

same thing she just said. I hear and say walker but the official name is walking

Answer 7

I've always heard it referred to as a Tennessee Walking Horse. :) I wonder if it's a "depends where you're from" thing. (I'm from the Chicago area).

Answer 8

Tennesee Walker.. I had a 'Missouri Fox Trotting Horse.." Lol - - - But I called him my Missouri Fox Trotter.

Answer 9

i say walker. thats a good question though.

Answer 10

it really does not matter. i have heard it both ways from both owners and non owners of these wonderful horses. its kind of like Missouri Fox Trotter/Fox Trotter, American Saddlebred/Saddlebred, or Peruvian Paso Fino/ Peruvian Paso. It is just a shorter way to say an already long name.
