[RC] lameness (long) - Brittany MurphyThanks to all those who had comments on my saddle and lameness issues. Vet prognosis is still sort of fuzzy on what's actually causing her lameness. He did look at saddle fit and agreed that it seemed to fit just right, even for her hard to fit withers and shoulders. He thought maybe using a thinner pad as not to change the way the saddle fits her so well by itself. So I will try taking out the skito foam inserts as soon as she's had some time off for healing. He also suggests the lameness might be more of a possible soft tissue injury that hasn't healed. And he commented that all of 4 feet are shod off-balance, due to how she's built, which could be adding some discomfort too. 1 problem, 3 possible causes to explore. yuck Brittany __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
