What type of marking extends onto the pastern without including the fetlock joint?

The marking that extends onto the pastern without including the fetlock joint is referred to as a pastern marking. These markings cover the pastern area, which is located just above the hoof and below the fetlock joint, so they do not extend to the joint itself. Such markings can be indicative of breed characteristics or individual identification.

Other types of markings, such as a snip, are typically localized to the muzzle area, while coronet markings are restricted to the top of the hoof. A half-stocking marking tends to cover more of the leg and would likely include the fetlock area, which differentiates it from a simple pastern marking. Therefore, the pastern marking specifically describes the scenario of extending onto the pastern without involving the fetlock joint.
