Horses are born crooked...left or right handed so to speak, and in simple terms it's up to us as their rider / trainer / rehabber, to train our horse in such a way that we develop symmetry into their movement, to help prevent injury.

One shoulder bigger than the other in your horse?

Uneven shoulders is quite a common issue, as it relates to the horses naturally occurring crookedness pattern (their left or right handedness). If you look along your horses back (from behind - if safe to do so!), with the horse standing square, you will be able to see their shoulders and whether they appear ‘even’ or not. It’s often accepted as ‘that’s how they are’ etc…BUT did you know that you can actively work on this pattern and create much more even shoulders and therefore more even movement in your horse??
