Another example of a Negative Sole Plane

Running a straight line forward from the coronary band on the hind foot is a good external guide as to the angle of the pedal bone within the foot. The higher this contacts the front leg above the knee the more severe the negative angle of the pedal bone will be within the hoof capsule. With some good foot trimming you can see the changes that can be made. I just wish I had some radiographs of this one to share with you. This is the squarest we could get her to stand but it's still clear what I'm trying to show. Click on the images below to learn more about Negative Sole Planes.
