Had he been ridden hard the day before? It's sounds a bit like azoturia (tieing up)... The effects may not have been apparent at first but the cold rain could have made the symptoms worse overnight. I'm no expert so i'm not sure, i expect the vet would have spotted this if it was the case though :o
I have a newforest pony too and i have to say he is the most amazing pony i have ever had!
I would love some of these boots but i think they would have to be a birthday present as i can't afford them right now! do you know if they have to be replace every so often due to the soles wearing out?
I have had Tess, my 14hh tb X welsh, for 5 years now and she has always been shod. I also have two other horses. I am 16 so don't pay for shoeing myself and mum has said the she will not pay for the shoes of 3 horses so i have decided that Tess will have to go barefoot.
She competes in...
