Uneven Hoofies

Here is an article that I came across that I thought would interest any horse owner/lover. The uneven hoofies are something I've noticed but never really given much thought to. The article references Dutch Warmbloods but over the years, I've noticed that horses who are slightly club-footed tended to stand with that hoof back when grazing or eating hay off of the ground. To my knowledge, I've never dealt with a Dutch Warmblood but noticed this in other breeds, particularly some Egyptian Arabian lines. So, in my experience, I don't think it's only the Dutch Warmbloods but I don't have any scientific proof, just my watching, not necessarily taking big note of it. But, I feel, this is important to know for an all-around horsewoman/man.
