Any advice on how to help a pony with its back feet turned out?
@LBEMG
@LBEMG 20 күн бұрын
Hi David. Unfortunately it’s a bit hard to diagnose and recommend treatment without seeing the pony in person so we can evaluate the possible causes of the deviation. It could be as simple as the way it’s trimmed, it could be due to the angle of joints, it could be due to past injury etc. We would recommend having the pony evaluated by your vet or if you’re in CA and looking for a vet we have 10 locations throughout the state. Hope you’re able to get answers and help for your pony!

@@LBEMG Ha, I knew I would find a way - I tried what I thought was what was being suggested, but mystified as to why I had 20 inches hanging off...I rolled it under and finished, but clearly was not correct. I went back to your video and estimated that the rolled cotton sheeting resulted in a roll that was 18 inches wide....and then zoomed in to see that it had been folded in half resulting in a 30" long roll of 4 layer 18" wide sheeting. Doubt anyone else had this issue, but in any case, the next attempt went perfectly though I needed to modify the layers to provide more air access for the dressings over the nasty bulb injuries. Think I've got it now! Thanks again - he's MUCH more comfortable with a properly done ball bandage.

What reaction are you looking for exactly when palpating tendons etc?
@LBEMG
@LBEMG 3 ай бұрын
Great question. We are looking to see a reaction where the horse might sort of wince and try to take the leg. Some horses are just sensitive and might try to pull the leg away as you palpate just because they aren’t used to that sensation so we will often repeat the palpation to be sure it’s pain causing the horse’s reaction and not just them not being used to being touched. Think of it like you having a bruise or area of injury and someone touching or squeezing that area… your natural reaction to the pain would be to move away from that sensation. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching!

So sorry we didn’t see your question previously. We would definitely recommend having your veterinarian do a lameness exam to best evaluate why that area has muscle wasting. We wouldn’t want you to push her to build an area she may be protecting. If your vet finds she does not have pain and it’s more of a training/balancing issue the you could engage a reputable trainer to help with balancing her and building up that area. Hope that helps even though we don’t have a specific answer like you’d probably prefer.

You can put your horse on cushioned boots as they may help but seeking advice from a veterinarian who can see the horse in person is advised.

I wish some medical centers/veterinarian centers would allow people to 'intern' there I would be more than happy to intern for free if I could learn more about horse care... I don't want to be a horse veterinarian, but the ranch I work at is struggling to make it by the wage he pays employees is... well its criminal, it's mostly children who can afford to not be paid a reasonable wage.... I am fairly positive most of his horses have lameness in AT LEAST one limb, one of his horses, a massive Belgian draft ex Work horse (she plowed fields) has lameness in all four limbs... they are all still used regularly and while I currently would really like to tell him he shouldn't be based off of my own experience with horses, he has a Ranch Manager with 6 years experience with horses starting when he was 45... The Ranch Owner has more experience... but treats them a lot like the Amish treat their horses... as tools and not as living breathing beings with their own unique emotions and personalities... For example a horse came back the other day WITHOUT the border that road it off property (everyone was okay) the Ranch Manager detacked the horse and put it away...When a horse starts spooking he doesn't lead with a calming, and cooing "whoaaaaaa" he starts hollering 'WOW HEY, STOP STOP STOP" he doesn't check their hooves, he doesn't know how to spot lameness in a horse even at the most basic levels (extreme head bobbing) he doesn't know how to handle a horse that is wanting to go in a different direction than he wants to go... That Belgian draft gets a grass pasture turn out every day she wants it because she starts pulling on him and instead of correcting her and digging his heels in he lets her lead him around... ... Do not get me wrong he cares about these horses more than his own family (which may not be saying much but still) he is excellent at treating certain conditions like Habro, and other summer sores and basic lesions, but his horse experience is limited, and it's limited to his time at this very ranch he became the ranch manager after just two years of working as a ranch hand and beyond the care he provides he spends no time with the horses, when he fly sprays them he does so in a manner that is sometimes traumatizing to them (not to mention the people who awfully do it when he is 'off' on the weekends) he just doesn't seem to have meaningful and good experience with horses, what he has is an intense care for them, and intense love for them which makes him the best that this ranch can afford, lord knows they couldn't afford me to do the work and I unfortunately will not degrade myself to the level required to work for a wage that has him earning about 1500 a month at best for 80+ hrs of work as he is always here, always on call... He lives literally above the barn, which is great, but he gets paid way less than min wage in this state much less than this city... I suppose he does get paid more than the federal min wage... but thats not saying much at all.

I loved this video... and I am realizing that most of the horses where I work have one form of lameness or another... I know a bit about spotting lameness when a horse is trotting the head bobbing and watching not only where their foot falls but how it falls... For example we have a Belgian draft who used to be a Amish work horse (every Amish horse I have ever seen is in fucking terrible condition and they would have been much better off being wild as their life expectancy is less than a wild horse, and the age at which they experience chronic arthritis is MUCH MUCH MUCH younger... so I officially no longer like or tolerate the Amish... I digress.) someone was riding her and trotting her (which I hate seeing because I can see her face wincing in clear and present pain) as she was trotting her foot falls were not falling in the right place, not only that it was like she was kicking the dirt where her feet were falling, particularly in the front where it's the worst... Belgian drafts are known to have massive hooves and she is massive even for a belgian draft (think 2600 lbs and maybe only 100-200 overweight.) for context thats about the weight of a compact car... with it being quite a bit more than a Smart Car or a Fiat Pop or a Geo Metro.... but she was displacing about 1-3 lbs of the sand we have in our round pen (we live in Southern AZ to remove a bit of the hardness of the dirt out here which can be as hard or harder than concrete.

So sorry to hear about your troubles with colic! It is so hard to watch our horses be in pain. If you have not already done so with your vet, we would definitely recommend abdominal X-rays and ultrasound (possibly consider scoping for ulcers). There are so many factors that make these cases difficult to diagnose sometimes… age of the horse, diet, is there decreased or increased manure, change in eating habits, etc. Checking for strangulations, stones, sand, ulcers, etc are all important rule outs depending upon the other details of the case. Please give us an update on your horse, we hope you and your vet are able to get to the source of the pain quickly and help your horse find relief!

I thought I would come back and update, he had surgery for a displaced colon and was a really special case in that he had self repaired his own colon twice previously possibly as a younger horse or a foal, could have been a worm burden, could have been anything. The surgeons thought the two masses they found on his large colon were cancerous tumours and removed them. Sadly after two weeks of fighting and actually doing really well through the surgery he turned anaemic and his blood stopped clotting which in turn caused a tear in the colon. I did the best all the way for my boy and it hurts like hell. Colic is such a wide range of things and you just never know what your going to get until you open up.
