Even picking up something wrong (bale of hay, sack of feed, etc.) can cause injury. Believe me, I've been there and done that! Real recent again too!

I agree, it doesnt take much. I was trimming a mare yesterday, she was a potential buy for one of my young students and she was a pig when it came to trimming her feet. Leaning on me, putting all her weight on the foot I wanted to pick up, snatching her feet away. My back was so sore this morning from all her bad training, or lack of. It feels better now, even after a day of "logging" and tractor work.

i had a horse years ago that the ferrier didnt like.because he was a big 16 hand horse.an when youd pick his back feet up he would lay down on you.so he said we could leave an pick him up that evening.i know they had war.an he was afraid for us to see what he had todo to pull his shoes an trimm his feet.
