Teddy is a left bended horse. He bends more easily to the left, and he can keep the forward down-position easier while walking on a circle to the left. He puts more weight on his left hind leg and he is "right handed", he spends most of his time grazing with his right leg forward.

When he is trotting straight in a paddock (without support from walls or fences) he tends to bend and he "slides" a little to the left, and he is somewhat more tense and alert on circles to the right. He lifts his head more frequently and gets easily distracted. When he lifts his tail it goes to the left most of the time.
