Kingsley (navicular horse) arrives at Rockley Farm for his barefoot rehab

[viola]

Hello to all of you who offered their advice and followed our progress several weeks ago. Here we are, Kingsley travelled 4 hours all the way to Devon for his hoof rehabilitation (for those of you who don't know - he was diagnosed with navicular disease through X-rays and nerve blocks).

Plenty of videos of his movement assessment and the way he places his feet etc as well as photos of his first day are on my blog here:

VIDEO REPORT

Couple of videos only as don't have the time for more but many more on my blog if you are interested:

I saw he had arrived on the Rockley blog this morning.
Frankie was hopping lame in Feb when he went there had his first outing at Patchetts at a weekend. Never thought he'd ever do more than hack at best this time last year and there he was Saturday bouncing across the car park, the warm up and the indoor school showing his bare feet off to erveryone.
I'll keep everything crossed that you can post something similar in the new year.
