So, a while ago I got into an argument about where a horse's hock his, after having a bad practice round with loading my gelding into a trailer with a ramp. He backs out pretty fast because he's a afraid of the ramp and kind of drags his feet when he goes. When I put him away my mum commented and said "His hocks are going to sore tomorrow." I looked at her and said. "Eh, mum, his hocks are up here." And pointed to the spot on his back leg that sticks out and kinda makes an angle (really don't know how to describe it :oops:) like in the diagram. But she kept arguing with me and said it was where the fetlock was, and then she showed me a diagram in a book she had bought and the fetlock was labeled "hock" So I'm in need of some clearing up! Where is the hock?
