Hi I'm hoping someone can offer some advice? My horse is a Dutch warm blood 17'2 and had a very funny turn. Whilst out riding he kept pulling to the right, every time we halted and moved off again he was again pulling hard right, leg yielding without the aids but couldn't pull him back?? I am not sure if this could be neurological? Pelvis? I am getting the vet Monday as we spoke on the phone but I have no idea?? Does this sound like rye grass staggers as he had that too yesterday? Any help would be appreciated as never come accross anything like this? He seems ok in himself? Eats fine no discolouration to gums, nasal or eyes?! Thank you in advance. Selby
 
I would get his teeth checked just to make sure there is not an issue there.

Its my experience that a neuro condition makes them feel all 'light and very loose' in their hind quarters if that makes any sense. My wobblers didn't pull to one side, but he did feel like he was going to fall over.
