Whether a horse can be a show jumper is based on talent, athletic ability and heart. Stroller (a very talented olympic jumper) stood a mere 14.1 hands.
Typical size is 15.3 to 17 hands.
if your horse refuses the jump, you turn the horse around in a circle, then go a little ways away from the jump, (but not too far giving the horse time to think about how to get away with going over the jump) and then (if the jump is not too large) trot your horse over the jump giving it leg pressure up to the jump to coax it to jump. (its easier to trot over the jump than canter when your horse doesn't want to jump it) if your horse refuses a jump during a show, this will count down points but if your horse refuses a few times you are disqualified. hope that helps!
What's to stop you? I've ridden a riding pony at a western show!
yes any breed or type of horse can jump, how well they jump depends on how well the horse was trained.

it really depends on the judge and the show, but most are judged on the horse more than the rider. the horse should be alert and interested in the rails, but should not be excited and jump them as if they were a three foot fence.
Spooking does not matter hoe high a horse can jump. If a horse has jumped over fences and has been trained you will be able to have your horse jump higher in competition.
When someone refers to a horse being TAM while jumping obstacles, it means they are clumsy. They cannot accurately jump the same jump twice.
When a horse scopes out a jump, it just means that the horse is looking at the jump trying to get a good idea of how tall/long it is and where they have to take off in order to be able to clear the jump.

Any horse is capable of show jumping. They may or may not be good at it though. But all horses have potential to do anythin that they put their mind to, just like humans. So therefore, i do belive that a Canadian horse can Show Jump. :) EDIT: Yes it is. i own a Canadian and hes used for dressage but he could jump 3' 6" easily. (i don't really know what the height of show jumping is though, as i do not do it any more.)
