Just passing through...
Grey Mare is wonky.
Had the vet it about ten days ago as she just suddenly went one evening. I thought she'd broken something.
Without the aid of xrays etc., concluded arthritis.
Since then she's had good days and the odd wonky day. This morning was a wonky one. I nearly called the vet, but then as I watched she walked off and was taking more weight.
She's looking good for an aged bonkers ex-showjumping ISH. Weight is steady and she's not tried to kill anyone, which used to be her go to when in pain, so I'm going with it's a forming period that she'll get through. She won't box rest or take Bute or Danilon (tried so many things to disguise them!). She's on a daily dog painkiller (1/4 tablet) and previous vet said it can't be upped. I'll check with the new vet tomorrow.
So folks, what your experiences?
