That horse was the director's idea. He was very flashy but was an airhead and John Wayne hated him. I think this was the movie where JW backed that Appaloosa over a wooden bridge. I don't know if this is correct but I think they had to replace that horse 1/2 way through the filming because it was such an idiot. add: I'm thinking the director was Howard Hawkes and I had heard that he actually owned that particular horse. Don't know if that is true or not.

One surely couldn't tell that John Wayne didn't like Cochise in El Dorado.  One of the most memorable things about that movie (and believe me I've watched it over 100 times, I think) is the relationship between Wayne and Cochise.  Terrific.

You must be from the east coast. Early in his career, he was taken aside and taught how to speak, walk and ride like a real cowboy. That might have had something to do with it.
