i was just wondering how many owners there are here who have had lammi prone horses and have gone successfully to barefoot?
stories appreciated, thanks

Have my little old childhood pony, many years ago she was shod but then retired and went barefoot before the cushings set in. So maybe that doesn't really count. But she gets by with careful management and the odd bute now and again.
 
yep, I had a lammi pony, shod when he had lami and sucessfull had him barefoot after.

He had 9 degree rotation on 1 foot and 7.5 degree on the other.

Usually advise PTS at 10 degrees.
 
interesting......
I'm not up to date with laminitic things. I do know a pony who looks pretty bad though. she struggles to walk. she doesnt sweat with pain though.

I guess its an xray that shows up the degree of rotation isnt it? is there any other way of gauging the rotation?
