I am a newbie regarding new foals and need help. My mare had a filly born yesterday about 2-3 weeks early. One of her back feet has a long frog hanging about 2 inches longer than the hoof causing it to drag and making her walk on the tip of the hoof. Im afraid the tendon will not stretch if she continues to walk this way and will cause more problems. Do I need to try brace the fetlock somehow to keep the ankle from getting worse, spend time each day trying to flex it for her or something else. I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me as I know this is the best place to get answers from expert owners. Feel free to ask me any questions. I will try to take a picture if you think it might help.
Thanks,
Steve
