Hi all,
My tb has been unshod for 6 years and has never had a problem with her feet (even when I had to walk her 6 miles on the roads to get to current yard because she wouldn't load).
However, since her last trim, she has not been quite right. In a nutshell, the day after her trim, I took her for a walk round the yard and she seemed very sore on the dirt track/concrete. She was then slightly lame for about a week, but not enough to stop her performing moves round the field to rival the Spanish Riding School
I took her for a walk in hand again yesterday and again she seemed footsore on the harder ground , but this time, was fine once back in the field.
I am going to take her out again later and if she is still the same, then I'll get the vet in the next day or two, but in the meantime, does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions please?
Thank you. Choc hobnobs on offer for reading
