Anouk
Friesian mare
Initial Assessment
Anouk has been barefoot since February 2008. Prior to going barefoot, she
had periods of intermittent, undiagnosed discomfort. Growth rings indicate
inflammation of the laminae. Anouk's feet are essentially good -- good
sole coverage, wide healthy frogs. Her left hind is considerably
imbalanced to the eye. Sole plane indicates some leveling is possible, but
invading sole plane on one side will imbalance the underlying structures.
Recommendations
Diet assessment recommended in light of evidence of prior laminitis
attack.
Trim Notes
Anouk is very comfortable and moving beautifully, as her gait scores in
recent dressage tests attest!
