Question
hello sir, what is the trouble with toe in and toe out horses, why not to pick them in thoroughbred confirmation ring? can you please post me pictures of toe in and toe out horses??

Answer
A horse that is toed in or toed out can be extremely unbalanced. It can also cause severe lameness in horses and permanent damage to the horses legs. If you look at the horses hoof the feet will either point out or in. The hood needs to be pointing forward in a straight line with the body.
