[Video] Shoeing the Hind Limbs for Performance and Therapy Part 1
Normal biomechanics of the equine hind limb is quite different from the fore limb. Researchers have compared the horse’s front limb to a weight supporting “elephant-like” limb, and the hind limb to a propulsive “cat-like” limb.
In this presentation, Cortona, Italy, veterinarian and farrier Hans Castelijns will survey the anatomy and biomechanics of the hind limb. This will lead him to review how the soundness of the hinds can be compromised.
Why You Shouldn’t Miss This: Gain valuable information on the hinds that will be necessary to learning the strategies presented in Castelijn’s Friday afternoon talk on the subject.
