Horse is lame behind when walking up a steep hill, particularly left hind goes short and kind of on the toe rather than landing the foot flat and pushing. Appears sound on the flat but isn’t really straight through with the hind limbs, brings them in and then out and outside the hoofprint left by the front hoof. We (me, osteopath and Vet) *think* it’s extreme tightness in thoracic area, hip and glute/hamstrings but haven’t done any real diagnostics yet. He is very resistant to any kind of hind limb hip extension stretches. Just wondering if there is anything that other people have experienced that I should bare in mind?
