GET TO KNOW THE BODY PARTS
It is important to learn the body parts, or points of the horse. All equestrians should be able to recognize which parts are which.
Quick! What part is this?
It's a cannon, or cannon bone. Can you find it in the diagram above?
A cannon is a part on a horse's leg. It is located directly under the hock, and above the fetlock.
Can you name this other body part?
It's the horse's withers. When measuring in hands, measure to the withers.
I hope you had fun learning some body parts!
