I realize most pony people are at or on there way to Congress right now but i'm sure some pony people are still around
.
I'm not sure if its called growing the toe out or the heal but i think most of you know what i am talking about. Would you do this on classic shetlands?
How does growing the toe out affect the horse, i'm guessing its done to give more movement and animation to the trot ..?
Royal doesnt have the 'fancy movement' and i realize that he is a classic shetland so he shouldnt move like a modern or hackney but his trot is so plain and most of that is due to his shoulder be a bit to straight. Would growing out the toe add more action to his trot?
Royal currently has a 1'' heal last he was measured in June.
Also, once you start growing out the toe do you have to continue growing it out or can you keep it at a steady lenght?
Thanks, hopefully some pony people are still around
