RE: [RC] Cramping while shoeing?/Flexion test.... - Ranelle RubinHave you done a flexion test??? The position the horse is in for shoeing the rear hoof is exactly the position held to test the health of the hock joint with flexion testing. Just my two cents, Ranelle What we truly and earnestly aspire to be, that in some sense we are. The mere aspiration, by changing the frame of mind, for the moment realizes itself.

The only time I had a horse do this, the shoer had put shoes on that were pinching the back of the foot.

Please Reply to: Cheryl cherylconklin@xxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== After doing a search and reading about 100 e-mails, I think this is a new one. Today, after my ferrier shod one of my horse's hind feet, the horse held it about a foot in the air and refused to put it down. At first, the ferrier thought that he must have got a nail wrong, so he checked with the hoof testers. Then the ferrier said that the horse had been pulling while he'd worked that leg. It took about half an hour of walking for that leg to loosen up. What in the world is that horse missing? He hasn't been ridden for about a week, and that last ride was only about two hours. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
