HEllo Geoffrey,
I was reading about your horse's tripping, and as a body worker, I also do barefoot trimming on my horses, but tripping can be caused through misalignment of the withers vertebra, which can cause a nerve pinch that partially…

The farrier checked it out about a month ago and he thought it was all fine. We get barefoot shoeing (no shoes) sort of just trimmed in a way to make the hoof stronger. The farrier comes about every 6 weeks. My horse is 10 years old before we got…

Hi, Geoffrey:
How do you know that your horse's legs and feet are fine? I'd be looking at toe length before anything else, as hoof angles have more to do with tripping than almost any other cause. Sudden development of tripping can also…

He does the same thing for my mum and dad and weve tried 2 other saddles and tried getting a bigger gullet for my saddle its still the same, though he is improving slowly after i have been using the trotting poles and done the square corners but…

What are you doing differently between the dressage ring and the trail? Is the footing deeper in the dressage ring? If your horse is correctly on the bit he should be picking up his legs both front and behind. Your horse is trying to tell you…

seems fine

I have seen this in horses where the saddle pinches along the withers. Check the fit and that you have a hand width clear along each side of the withers. Or the footing in the arena, if it is to deep.

- HEllo Geoffrey,
I was reading about your horse's tripping, and as a body worker, I also do barefoot trimming on my horses, but tripping can be caused through misalignment of the withers vertebra, which can cause a nerve pinch that partially paralyzes, or makes numb, the corresponding muscles that operate the front legs. The horse feels that he cannot control his muscles properly, and this can be fixed by a good chiropractic treatment. Wish I lived closer, but I may be coming on tour to Southern Australia later this year, it's not sure yet but you never know. Check my site for more info and good luck! cheers, Ann.
