Hello!

Just looking for some advice concerning my colt. He has, what I would describe as, a 'popping' fetlock joint.

By this I mean the proximal phalanx seems to move back into the correct position of the joint when the colt goes to move.

I cant really get close enough at the minute to inspect the joint very closely, he's still in need of taming! But from what I can see the phalanx does seem very upright prior to moving backwards in the popping motion.

Anybody got any ideas whether this is just a youngster thing and is likely to grow out of it?

Thanks for any help!
