Location: ohio-in my own little world with pretty ponies :) | My chiro has always told me that rolling sometimes knocks them out of place so when they shake really good, it sets them back into place. I have one guy that NEVER EVER shakes after he rolls and is always out so bad but I have a guy that shakes really good after and I haven't had to have him adjusted in a year. And when he does need done it's usually something little |

I don't think it's a guarantee thing but I definitely believe that it helps |

What I meant is my horse rolls and shakes a lot. Every time I ride her, when we get done, no matter how well you brush her and cool her out, she rolls and then shakes. Sometimes she just shakes when you are riding her (which to me is the freakiest feeling). She really likes to roll, and every time she shakes off. |

I have one like that too. I can guarantee that he rolls at least 5 times a day. Especially if he just got fresh bedding. |

I've heard something similar that if they roll completely over they are a good horse :). |
