Episode 54: Postural Insights for Minis & Shetlands

Thankyou Belinda for requesting this weeks episode! We’re talking all things Minis and Shetlands, and because these little horses are so much more than paddock ornaments. Their unique challenges include dental and metabolic issues, upright feet, limb deviations, and stifle/hip concerns.

We talk about:

  • Why small horses often become “head heavy” and what that means biomechanically
  • How ill-fitting tack (especially saddle's!) and heavy manes can affect their posture
  • How to improve posture through hoof balance, variable feeding positions, and enough movement
