Ido

Teenage Lusitano Stallion

Initial Assessment

Ido is underrun all the way around.  He has very deep, chronic thrush, particularly in his right hind.  Wall quality is thin and shelly.

Recommendations

First and foremost, aggressive treatment for the thrush.  Soaking, as often as daily for a week.  Packing the severely infected right hind central sulcus with cotton or gauze and saturating with essential oils.

Trim Notes

Ido's wall quality has improved dramatically.  He has developed excellent concavity.  Thrush issues linger, and beg more frequent attention.  He is sound and moving beautifully!
