horsey confirmation question

[stormy's mum]

hey im currently in vet tech school and one of the horses we have stands with her front feet really far apart and her back feet really close. anyone know why she might be like this is there a name for this confirmation defect

feet far apart is called .... base wide and close back legs is called narrow behind... they say the more wide at the chest the better as the heart has more room?? Its just something that happens like any other defect.. it can effect the horse but some horses dont care..
