Spent the morning at the vet looking at the xrays they took of Deano's hooves and joints. Really interesting and informative - joints are fairly perfect but thought I would share the ones of his front hooves with anyone who is interested. They show that the angle of the pedal bone is all wrong and that this has caused some inflammation, particularly in his left fore which hopefully you can see is much worse. Coffin joint and navicular bone look fine thank goodness (you can see these better in the shots taken at other angles). Vet is very hopeful that the next xrays will show the angle of the pedal bone changing - hope so!
Hope you can see them ok. The ones of the joints were strangely beautiful, had to keep holding myself back from saying so to the vet!
