Does anyone know what a hunter's bump or hump is? and if it will
effect the career of an endurance horse?
Our youngster and his half brother who is only 2 and unbroke both
have a raised area of the spine, about 4" long just in front of the hip,
not real bad but visible.
Our farrier told us it was a hunter's bump. Most be heriditary as
they are brothers and both have it. How is this different from roach
back? Thankyou for any help. Linda
