Thanks for your reply, ive mainly heard positive stories so its actually nice and balanced to hear negative ones! My boy is field sound and tonight he was 1/10 lame on the road in trot, so hes not too bad, he had a hole originally had 3 scans so far, but awaiting another when covid settes...

Looking for peoples stories on DDFT injuries and outcomes. Our 16.1hh maxi cob who weighs around 680kg tore his DDFT in october 2018, possibly due to thickened annular ligament, but on rescans was normal size, so nobody is sure, his tear wasnt huge, or frayed , but more of a small rugby shaped...

Thanks guys, it's been a real slog, but my new physio/ chiro is absolutely amazing, she gave me tools to help foxy myself,we have daily exercises , massages and then 5 mins in the gym and the difference has been remarkable, so glad I found her :-) Foxy is back to being wicked and mischievous xx

with my daughter.... we had a change of physio/chiro and after a lot of blood sweat and tears, my little Foxy is back in full work... I've had a good 3 months of daily exercises with her, gym work and millions of miles long reining her, and it's all paid off, shes had the all clear now, and...

Just taken her for a mile longreining, so thrilled, she was angelic, but not only angelic she looked like a racehorse, stomping around very fizzy, was quite a handful :-)

Thanks username1 .... But it's perfectly normal for any green horse to be one sided . Also vet had a thorough exam and asked re canter leads etc, so he ruled that out

That's a good idea Amy !

Will do Donnie, was pitiful seeing her clipping both hinds in trot yesterday, even vet gave her a bowl of grub as a reward after her stretches think she has us all by our heart strings!

Yes sienna, spot in. He's reassured me somewhat! Hills not a great idea just yet, and she will remain in the flat paddock , that's two sick bays we have now ( old tb with abscess ) never rains but it pours! On the upside he left me a huge tub of immune boost supplement for my sarcoid...

Yes Esther , he said in his opinion she is bashed up, she's passed a flexion test, and numerous spins on each leg, and he find lots of stretches in her.... When she first came to me she was uneven in her pelvis in trot ( not lame ) that's why physio came then and then came regularily, but...

Thanks moomin for taking the time to reply. The mare was tiny when I had her.

Hi pigeon, see my post on previous page, this was just a post vet update ..... Yes she has it reflocked / adjusted every 3 mths as she has changed so much, altho we have moved on from thorowgood to leather, so hopefully I have my forever saddle now :-)

Thanks Pearl, I am very happy with my vet, always have been happy with him, he's a great horse vet and used by many top riders, I am just a lil hunter, but he has all the time in he the world for you and is very thorough. Daughter is absolutely fine thanks. I was so scared when he was doing...

Thankyou for taking the time to reply casey

Thanks for taking the time to reply, but I have just posted re her check up today! I am not interested in anyone's opinions other than my vets who has just spent 90 mins with me giving her a comprehensive work up . Snowflakes, thanks ... She literally body slammed the road, hinds went in...
