I have new (to me) Arab colt that is 11 months old. He is so smart and is
loving to learn all the new things I am teaching him. He brain and
personality are so incredibly COOL I can't believe it (and this is before
his "brain" surgery that is scheduled for next week...), BUT he has a club
foot in the front.

I do not now what the degree is or the difference between the two front
feet but it diffinately is a club foot. I don't see any other horses at
this breeder's farm that have any clubs - stud, mare, tons of brothers and
sister...nobody.

Does anyone compete with a club footed horse? What problems do you have or
had?

I have an open agreement with the breeder that he can be "returned" if I
ever had any problems with him... I am so very bummed about this little
guy since he is going to make some a very, very nice gelding for showing or
pleasure trail since I am doubtful that a horse with a club can compete.

Any thoughts would be welcome. sallydm@rmci.net
