How to use "Foreleg" in context?
The foreleg is the most visible and recognizable part of the anatomy of a horse. It is typically the largest and strongest member of the leg's anatomy and is responsible for supporting the horse's body and locomotion. The foreleg is composed of three joints: the shoulder, the knee, and the ankle. These joints allow the foreleg to fully extend and flex, allowing the horse to trot, gallop, and walk. The foreleg is also equipped with several inches of thick, vibrantly coloured hair that is used to protect the horse from the elements and to provide insulation in cold climates.
