I meant to post this other day but couldnt find the wire to get the pictures off my phone lol
Anyway as i said in my other thread, Ted has come back to me a little worse for wear. Hes lame on front and back leg (both left side). Hes not too bad in the school but soon as hes out on the stoney bit on the yard he's hopping on his front leg, back leg not quite as bad but stil noticably lame.
His feet were trimmed and looking fine a few days before he left me and have come back not in the best condition. Im wondering if having shoes on may help with his lameness but can he be shod with his front feet like they are?
Also, apart from his wound he did with me his legs were pretty clean when he left, no marks etc and they have come back with like lines all the way down them any ideas what it could be?
Going to get the farrier out first to check his feet see if theres anything causing this lameness, if not then vet will be called. Oh Ted does love to cost me lots of money.. good job i love him so much eh!
Anyway heres some pictures, legs with marks, feet now and also a video of him running in the school so you can see not really any discomfort there.. he cant even trot on solid ground without tripping up!
Excuse the part where i start running.. he wouldnt have stopped he would just run over me haha
