Re: Cow Hocked

["Susan Garlinghouse" <suendavid@worldnet.att.net>]

Michael Hochner, who's the head vet for the state-run studs in the
Netherlands, did a pretty exhaustive study on the conformational points that
made a significant difference in dressage and eventing and one of his
findings was that being cow hocked was not a contributor to lameness or hock
problems.  Sounds like your horse is really slight anyway.
