She is both weak and rough coupled. Her knees and hocks are a bit too high. She looks to have adequate bone but also looks tied in at the knee. Good shoulder and set to her neck. She is weak muzzled.. very snipey in that regard (even for an Arabian as the breed wants a delicate muzzle.. this is too delicate).
I agree that she is rough coupled and in some of the pictures she looks over in the knee too soft of a muzzle and I don't know what it is but I don't care for her tail set Posted via Mobile Device
Her feet and everything are fine, trust me my first thought was founder. Nope its just her conformation. And she was used for horse tripping so I would not be surprised if her stance has been altered by that.
Per your request. Aqua lines show what I would LIKE to see.. a higher point of shoulder and a less steep shoulder and her point of croup moved forward. . She is actually quite level. I wish hocks and knees were closer to the ground. She is pigeon breasted and she has a weak jaw.. wish she has a stronger head.
I like your little diagram Elana
I have to agree... Over at the knee, weak hindquarters and long through the back.
But I suppose it doesn't matter too much any more as shes getting older :P
I (personal opinion) quite like her head
Lol she may be getting older in numbers but not in her head XD she is still convinced she is 6. And thank you for the lines! People see her move and say "Oh she must be such a smooth ride!" I nearly fall off her laughing! She is NOT smooth, well her gallop is but anything slower is kidney and back busting! I always think her head is bulky from head on, more square than I see in most arabs. Im not going to breed her so idc if shes a lil wonky lol.
