What's wrong with this horse? Guess?? Education to develop your eyes. ANSWER UP! :)

^^ TeeK take a guess!! I did this so everyone could see what others are seeing/thinking

I will say that this horse WAS seen by an certified equine chiropractor less than 12hrs after this video was taken, so I do have a proper diagnosis for him. I wouldn't post unless I did

The movement and reluctance to canter reminds me of a horse that I knew that had sacroiliac problems. I don't know how far off the mark I am but it almost looks to be a back issue rather than a leg issue.

My guess Luxating patella....

My guess is either its in his hip or his back. He looks really stiff to me.

Right hind looks a bit off, his SI joint? My mare moves a little funny on her left hind and actually didn't pass the pre-purchase exam when I bought her, and the chiro has said she is sore in her SI.

I just wish I could see the Video!

^^ Pippy why can't you see it?? Something I can fix/help with??

Keep guessing guys -- no one is right yet; not even about the location of it.....I'm acutally rather surprised. When I 1st saw it, it was obvious to me -- perhaps the *not ideal* lighting of the video is making it harder to see?? My appologises if it is, I'll be sure to get better video if this happens again.

I'll reveil everything tomorrow night.

My OH thinks offside lower front leg. Thinks hes not loading that leg up. He did want to see the horse in the other direction.

Pippy: you'll have to take a peek when you get home

Gluey: There's a short clip at the beginning of the video of Torreau troting to the right. I didn't post much of him going right, as it's more noticable when he goes left. When you say "offside lower front leg" do you mean his lower right front leg? Just want to confirm that.
