Ryu was shod on Friday morning, we hacked out saturday afternoon, unfortunately he did a buckey twisty in the air type thing when I asked him to canter then when I pushed him on he broke down so I pulled up and got off and promptly freaked out! At first I thought he'd kicked himself he was very lame but then my friend pointed out his twisted shoe, phew. So I walked him home and got the shoe off with a bit of a fight. He was lame yesterday morning walking to the field and sensitive on the stones, farrier was supposed to come last night but didn't
so I hot polticed incase anything came out as Ryu is not usually so sensitive to a lost shoe and thats why I'm worried, his legs are fine no heat or swelling but wondered if its possble hes twisted or pulled something lower, really hoping he'll get the shoe on tonight and make a miraculous recovery, Sue the eventer said thank god it wasn't serious because she couldn't cope with me and my overdramatic horse lol
BTW the poultice was clear but put another on for today while hes out altho it will be a soggy mess by now.
