I have a 5 year old
stallion that had great, tough feet before having EPM 2 years ago.Unfortunately, one of the side effects
of Marquis is shelly feet.I
finally had this guy evaluated by 2 vets when I felt he was ready to start some
serious training and they deemed him 110% sound after a long rehab period.They were really impressed with his
recovery (he was a 4 on the neuro scale).
We have had continuing problems with vertical
toe cracks and now, last two shoeings, lost shoes.I would like some advice on what supplements/preparations
everyone has tried and with what degree of success.Maybe I can revert/help along the
recovery of his feet.I want to
start this boy on some rides, since endurance is what I love, and see how he
does.If not, I may just have to
buckle down and take some refresher lessons to try him in the show ring (yuck).
