Would you buy a horse for general riding and a few riding club activities that had been hobdayed?

Yes, without a worry. The one thing you will have to be a little carefull of is to wet things like chaff in feeds.

yes we have a gelding who has been hobdayed and it doesnt affect him one bit,
alot of eventers have been hobdayed to help with there breathing when eventing, It is not something to be put off by, if the horse is what you are looking for go for it !!

Yes, wouldn't worry me at all. Our 4* had it done and still competed and he still gives jumping lessons now.

yes it doesnt pose any problem as long as the after care to start with was followed correctly by the owner !

It is the op used to fix a horse with laryngeal hemiplegia (paralysis of the left side of the larynx)!

Hi,
Yep!
I did too
My boy was hobdayed 5 years ago and it does not affect him at all. I will say though to follow the after care strictly as this was not done with the previous owner and now he has a good cough whilst he is warming up. I find if he has not been worked for a few days he coughs more but the vet has checked him all over and assures me he is just clearing himself. He can do all the normal things and he loves to have a bl**dy good gallop
Also it has made him multi-talented, he can cough, fart and buck all whilst cantering
Now that's talent
