It danced sideways, shaking its white fetlocks and looking frightened, as it felt itself in the brook.
Needless to say, marked lameness and swelling of the fetlock soon take place.
Shoulder, elbow, knee, and fetlock are all easily and painlessly flexed and extended.
The horses were great, docile creatures, with shaggy, clumsy legs, hoofs as big as dinner plates, and fetlocks six inches long.
They sank above the fetlocks at every step in the soft snow.
The hind fetlock joint was found to show increased abduction with the heel wedges during stance.
We are left with the fetlocks of the backend of a pantomime horse.
I saw it in the procession with a piece of tape round one of its fetlocks.
