Ok guys lately it seems to me that there are several questions or comments about our miniature horses conformation. I have heard and heard and heard the things that you do and dont want... but here is my problem: I cant see it!!
People talk about a weak rear end causing stifle issues. What does "good" look like? How about examples of "bad", and why?
On the shoulders, what is "good" and what is" bad" and why?
Also what about" how the neck ties into the shoulder and/or neck". Why?
I realize that we have to use pictures of our own horses if picture examples are used. I think?
Does anyone know of a book that would perhaps show excellent examples that someone even like me can figure out? The books I have looked at just show you the "good" ones and then show you a bad one, I wish they would show both and then show them with bones super imposed... Or something like that. I have found that I do pretty good picking out who will do well in the show ring... but I cant really pick them apart or tell why exactly.
I would love some real informative help on this!
