Talk about bad timing. I have a horsebox booked for a weeks time, and my horse is lame.
In the last 2 weeks she's been lame 3 times, I'm starting to think that when I thought she was sound, actually she maybe wasn't
Its her hindquarter that the pain is in, if you run your fingers along her back, putting pressure on, she dips/flinches away when you reach where the back of the saddle sits and also over her croup. She flung her head when I tried to do her girth up on the saddle.
Had my saddle reflocked just before all this started so wonder if its flocked wrong for her :S
Going to ring the vet tomorrow, hopefully they can fit her in straight away (vet on site) But I was wondering if anyone had any ideas, what I should expect vet to do? What tests, scans etc? And also what could be wrong?
Thanks
