"Refined and graceful, yet solidly constructed" is how one person describes the contemporary Tennessee Walking Horse. The horse is tall and has a long neck. Small, strategically positioned ears are on the well-defined head. The breed weighs 900 410 to 540 kg and is typically 150 to 173 cm tall. With a short back and tight coupling, the shoulders and hips are long and sloping. It is okay for the hind legs to be slightly over-angulated, cow-hocked, or sickle-hocked because the hindquarters are "average thickness and depth," well-muscled, and these characteristics are present.
