[RC] Horse landing unevenly - Karen StandeferIf your mare is trimmed
correctly (balanced) and is still landing unevenly, then I would involve the
vet. Landing on one side or the other usually indicates there is pain
somewhere. That, coupled with your description of her movement would have
me suspicious of hock or stifle problems.
Doing any correcting
trimming/shoeing without understanding what is causing the pain could exacerbate
the issue.

Hello all! The mare I am currently riding lands unevenly on her right
hind. As she walks, she slightly swings her right hind out and then back
in, landing on the outside of her hoof first. How do we get this
fixed? I have discussed this with my farrier and he has a suggestion but I
would like to read what all of your suggestions may be.
Thanks!
Amanda
