This video is meant to help train your eye to see forelimb lamenesses and differentiate between left and right forelimb lameness. Pause, rewind, and rewatch as many times as you need to - especially with the more subtle examples - to see it. The better your eye is at seeing subtle lamenesses, the quicker you can get the vet involved if something goes wrong with your horses! Seeing lameness is truly an invaluable skill.

Stone Bruise: This is a common cause. If the horse stepped on a sharp object, it might be favoring the other limb to reduce pressure on the bruised hoof. Lameness: Any form of lameness or injury to the limb, joint, or hoof could cause this stance. It might be due to a minor strain or a more serious issue like a tendon injury. Abscess: A hoof abscess can cause significant pain, leading the horse to favor the affected leg. Muscle Soreness: After a ride, muscle soreness or fatigue could also cause a horse to rest one leg more than the other. If the behavior persists or if the horse shows signs of pain (such as limping or reluctance to move), it's best to consult a veterinarian to diagnose and treat the underlying issue.
