Evaluating Structure and Soundness
 Knees
Knees should be straight or slightly set backward to
provide cushion and flex to the front end. The picture
on the left illustrates a pig with too much set to the
knee joint. The pig shown in the right has inadequate
length between the foot and knee and is severely bucked-over
in its knee.
This pig has a good set to its knees. Note the slight
backward set or curvature to the knees.
