Students will explore desirable/undesirable conformational traits and examine the relationship between biomechanical movement and discipline suitability. Identification of common points of lameness allows students to recognize when unsoundness is present and when to consult with a veterinarian. This course makes use of live horses and demonstrations to evaluate equine conformation and lameness.
