X-rays on a 3yo vetting? Thoughts

[Tiddlypom]

Arggh, why do so many breeders neglect the foot care of their youngstock, yuk.

If the feet are neglected be very wary, that can store up lots of trouble. Growing youngsters moving wonkily on neglected feet.

Just want to say thank you to all the members who gave me their thoughts after reviewing photos and videos over direct message.

I sent the videos to my vet to review and she can see some forelimb lameness and has some concerns so decided to not proceed with her. It’s crazy how an unbroken 3yo can not be sound, but I guess it could be because her feet have never been kept together.

Better to know now than to have bought her, started her and worried it was something you’d done wrong.

I’m about to start looking again. I find it soul destroying how many 4/5yo don’t look sound. I keep thinking I must be imagining it and looking for something that isn’t there (based on my last experience). It’s a complete minefield.
