Re: Cow-hocked endurance prospects???

[Kenzie_Kelly@spc.com]

     I've read all of the responses to this post about cow hocks and how
     they may or may not be a detriment, but how do you know for sure if
     your horse is cow hocked?

     I ask because Zane at rest turns his hocks towards each other, but
     when made to "stand up straight" he's fine.  He will also stand base
     narrow in the front at times (also at rest).  When walking and
     trotting, he moves with his legs straight.

     Does this mean anything?  Do other horses do this?
