Changes in Conformation and Walk Kinematics of Suckling and Weanling Warmblood Foals
The objectives of these two studies were to characterize normal growth and resultant changes in conformation and walk kinematics of warmblood foals. The first study quantified linear and angular conformation changes of 13 warmblood foals during the first 9 mo of growth. An objective photographic …

Comparative Study of Heel Movement and Foot Biomechanics in Aluminum Nail-On and Indirect Glue-On Fabric Cuff Shoes in Horses
The equine hoof is a dynamic structure that undergoes deformation during locomotion, contributing to shock absorption and vascular perfusion. Traditional shoeing methods have been implicated in restricting natural hoof movement, potentially altering biomechanics and increasing the risk of hoof …

A descriptive study on three Icelandic horses measuring differences in vertical asymmetry during trot in a straight line and in a circle between two saddle placements using an objective gait analysis system
In Iceland, saddles are typically placed more caudally on the horse’s back than what is traditionally taught in other disciplines. It is believed to enhance shoulder freedom and overall gait performance, but there is very limited scientific evidence that supports this belief. This study aimed to …
