Not sure why you gave him bute as in an earlier post you said you were sure he was not sore anywhere. I assumed you had a vet out to check for soreness. You might want to think about that.

The only other thing I can think of is a reward for a canter. If I read your initial post correctly, you really have to work to get him into a canter and once he goes into it, then you work real hard to keep him at the canter. You may want to try getting him into the canter and then just do half way around and stop and let him rest and pet him. He may not get the point of the whole thing otherwise - - he gets kicked and spanked and when he does canter, he just has to keep doing it and you may still be kicking him off and on. Just a thought.
