It's rare alright. That said, I've seen another horse with a lateral canter

=;-D

Just because *you* havent seen it doesnt make it rare...! Sheesh. Where
have we heard that before.

Why does your famed scientific mind check out when it comes to your own
personal experience.?! I hope your work isnt as knee jerk as your horse
observations.

And I'm guessing that curing it is even rarer.


Post on UD. It would be interesting to see the responses on that forum.
There are very smart people here but not many really experienced
dressage people. See what UD offers.
