That doesn't sound like founder to me but you could have laminitis. Could also be an abscess forming.
Check the digital pulse. Are all 4 the same or is the pulse more pronounced in one or two legs ?
Are there deep lines in the hoof just below the coronary band ? If so are they straight or...
It was a fantastic weekend. The Pine Hill Pleasure Show in Bellville Texas is a great show for first timers. As a result, we get a lot of VSE entries. ( I think we had 10 + this year ? ) ( Do we count Al as 4 ? )
Came home last night and checked in only to discover we had lost Linda Best...
