Lordosis/scolosis? any experience please?

[Dizzykizzy]

Apologies if this should be in vitnery but not so many go in there!
Does anyone have any comments or photos on the above conditions? (should say Scoliosis)
I am struggling a bit with my 3 year old who has a very dippy back but from what I have read on t'internet he doesn't seem to fit either condition.
Is his back conformation something he is likely to grow into or will he stay like he is now he's 3? Any help welcome as I am worried but reluctant to get a vet involved at the moment as it isn't bothering him and I don't want his back excluded from my insurance if I do consult them.

Not sure if you can see what I mean from these photos but look at the shape of his bum in the front on one...

I am no expert on either condition but to me he just looks like he is a bit bum high at the moment and will grow a bit more. He is bound to grow more being only 3. Is he arab/part arab? His conformation looks typical of that type. Also currently he has no muscle in that area, once he starts work and so long as he is worked correctly he will develop some which will make the dip below his croup alot less obvious (if it's still there). Undermuscled horses often look a bit like this so nothing to worry about.

Though this is just my opinion so hopefully this will bump you to the top and some other more knowledgable people will reply!

Thank you for replying Ally, I hope you are right and I am just being a worry guts! He is arab (well spotted!) and I think still has a fair bit of growing to do.

Anyone else have any comments please?

Get him vetted (one stage should do it) as if you were selling him... that report is for you and not your insurance company... or get a horse physio out to look at him

Thing is if I do that I have to say the vet has picked something up then if I ever had to claim the insurance will exclude it.
It doesn't matter really as he has a home for life here if necessary I would just like to know if he is going to be ok.
