Following a strict mediterranean diet...
People are allowed to say poisitve things-people are allowed to say negative things. That's how being a commercial business happens. An unlevel horse unless there has been a mechanical change (arthodesis for example) is avoiding putting weight somewhere that is sore. Work sound horses all you want, but there are several videos of horses with 'powerful movement' and 'bouncy trots' etc. at home supposedly doing really well that are mincing along, being pushed to perform which isn't in the horses best interest.
People can say what they want and they do.
It is not in the horses best interest that you sit on its back to be fair... and lameness can be due to a thousand different factors, one of which is just sitting on it's back. Weren't you trying to insinuate (and delta99) that the lameness was due to just hooves?? Do you have any clinical papers to prove that please?
If we rewound the life tape of the horse from the moment it was diagnosed with caudal hoof pain, do you honestly think you could pin it down to one factor? If so, please tell us so we stop chasing "useless" approaches to the problems such as wedges/heartbar/barefoot/unshod/eggbar/saddle fitting/dentistry/bitting/massage etc etc???
I know the answer
