Club foot, my experience has been that it probably isn't a true club foot but a high-low situation. Depending on how bad it is a good farrier can probably keep it in check. If it is bad, I honestly don't know.
Okay, point well taken but my farrier says it is a club foot, but not bad. This is the first horse I have owned with one. How does one specifically tell the difference - in layman's terms? :) What is the best course of maintenance for a clubfoot? Any suggestions.
Thanks,
