[QUOTE="Boot Jack Bulls, post: 1681683, member: 24016"] A number of causes may make him "park out" like this. It's unlikely at his age and being intact that UC (urinary calculi) is the issue. Foot issues may cause them to take a unusual stance, but if you closely, when he parks like this, he's actually putting tons of pressure on his toes and its affecting both feet. If it is a hoof issue, I'd suspect hoof rot. Honestly, my first impression is that he has a spinal injury. Kissing spine will cause a horse to park out to relieve spinal pressure. I have a cow that is stifled, and she quivers like you describe sometimes, but never parks out. Definitely worth a vet call. Stifled animals have a shelf life and a stifled bull is pretty much useless.... [/QUOTE]
