I met Sorrel and her family this week, after 9 months of supporting her through her laminitis rehabilitation by email. She looked fantastic! Her feet had good sole depth, concavity and tight white lines, and her toe cracks had finally grown out - after years! She is enjoying more freedom on her track system and with her muzzle, is getting fit with in-hand work and should be starting back in ridden work any day - I've been promised a photo!
Her owners worked really hard to make the small management changes necessary to ensure her recovery and to keep her environment stimulating, and did an amazing job convincing their farrier to follow trimming suggestions marked onto photos of her feet throughout the rehabilitation process. He is now trying out some of the suggestions that worked for Sorrel on his own laminitic horse, and hopefully others that he trims.
The success stories like Sorrel's make all the late nights at the computer worthwhile!!
