[RC] Back fetlocks dropping.... gaited horse - jamie ward
A lady asked us to take her saddlebred and put some miles on him . Anyways I have a concern about him. When he walks trots gaits etc his back fetlocks drop way down, not touching the ground but I would say level with his cornet band. His feet are in desperate need of a trim and the angles are all wrong we are getting that fixed however I do not think that would cause this. We have two saddlebreds but have never seen them do that But then again we are just getting into the gaited horses. I was just wondering if this is a normal thing for gaited horses or a health issue
My horse's feet are as swift as rolling thunder He carries me away from all my fears And when the world threatens to fall asunder His mane is there to wipe away my tears. ~Bonnie Lewis
