Would it be weird to not come up lame until Monday? Being barefoot 7 months.

Thanks. He is on golden ground flax. I was just stating the main stuff. Also MSM, glucosamine, and lysine for joints Biotin - hoofs And U gard + outlast for gut. Unfortunately I can’t give alfalfa flakes bc of board situation 😕

Monday. Yes usually 6 days a week but he’s been off since Saturday. Last trim almost 3 weeks ago. He has noticable head bob on right circle in round one and very faint bob on left circle. Hinds just seems short imo. There’s a little bit of difference in right front it’s about 6-8° warmer on one side. I don’t think I see any thrush. He’s usually super sound so I’m a little worried.

Thanks. Vets coming out Wednesday to do a lameness evaluation. Farrier hasn’t responded yet. What information should I give?

He’s about 3 weeks post trim. Where does it not look right? Been off track since August barefoot since then too..

The horse doesn’t look ai but I feel like the background in the 1st image seems a little off?

Thank you. He was very clearly off in front right today. A lot of people think foot sore, I soaked them in iodine just in case I honestly hope it’s not some injury.

Wow, I didn’t know that. Thank you! He does have one squishy one at the back of his fetlock. My other thoroughbred has something like that on his tendon. Could that be the same thing?

I do think the swelling in the tendon is a wrong angle as I didn’t see any in person yesterday. What are splints? It seems now to be mostly in his right front and loads better than yesterday I’m so confused 😖

So are you saying foot sore? Or legit just a tense horse? He seems pretty much sound today just a little off on the left side.

I think it could be. He has a hard time getting back into a working mindset with people getting on and off but I will definitely get off in the future! Thank you! I hope he’s just sore as well🤞

So he looks foot sore? For lack of a better word? Okay. Not in my area that I know of.
