Bone Spavin in right hock

My horse was diagnosed with this a number of yrs ago. He still works but I am wondering about perhaps trying remedial shoeing. He has had raised heels but they did not seem to help. Is there anything else that people have had success with??

My horse had lateral extensions for 18 months.

Like HighlandPonyLass says my horse has also got lateral extensions. They are an extra £12.50 on top of my normal shoeing costs. He is shod every 7 weeks, but he is a WB so has very good feet anyway, not sure if 7 weeks is a bit too long for most horses.

That sounds reasonable. I will ask my farrier about this. Thanks for that.
