We trim our own hooves at my house (or, I do. I can't say I'm fantastic, but I am learning as I go and research) and this weekend I was trimming on of my near 2 year old's hooves. The filly is a horror to trim her hooves, but I hardly think its her fault. I think its mostly out of her lack of handling as a foal and because of her joints.
I HATE it when people pop their joints. Its nasty, nasty, nasty. I don't mind it when I do it, but I cannot stand hearing or watching others do it. So, if you can imagine how squeamish I am when I FEEL the joints popping!
Anywho, everytime I handle her hind legs I can feel her joints popping. Both hind legs, both ankles, both hocks.
What is the cause of this?!
