A canter is called a three beat gait because you hear three distinct sounds. This is because two of the horse's feet hit the ground at the same time. There are two possible combinations of feet in the canter, remember that near = left and off = right. The LEFT lead: Near fore, off fore and near hind, off hind. The RIGHT lead: Off fore, near fore and off hind, near hind.
