    Somethings not right

    Yes, had vet out for 6 months on and off, pony felt lame yet when trotted up was sound, was told ride him through. Lunged him nothing. Took him for x-rays and flexion and he trotted out hopping lame on both legs! Vet said out for 12 months it's a strain and he came right!
