[RC] teaching a horse to trot at vet checks - sherman
When fatigued,
I am lame due to trauma (ran into a tree) to the muscle above my left knee a
year and a half ago. During a ride, some of the vets thought my horse was intermittently
grade 1 or below on his left front, others thought he was fine. When I see the
video of me trotting him out, I think they were influenced by my limping. I don’t
see any sign of the horse being off. More than once the vets proclaimed rider
lame, horse good to go. I might have some else trot
him out next time if I can’t do it without limping.

that's
for sure! I have a really bad right knee and it is nearly impossible for
"me" to trot without limping. Dane Frazier told me to get someone
else to trot out my horse cause I make the horse
look lame!
My horses have learned to trot out with anyone at the lead and to trot on
