A value >1 is indicative of preferential toe or medial landing, <1 is indicative of preferential heel or lateral landing. An asterisk indicates a significant difference when compared with the first measurement. (T = 0.5 for walk and T = 2 for trot). Significance between left and right and front and hind is also indicated with an asterisk.
