    The Vet's best guess is at sometime in the past, he took a mis-step landing with the foot folded back and tore loose some ligament attachments at the point of ringbone. There is also some medial ringbone - but we did not Xray this medially in Nov for some reason.

    Lotta trauma for an 11 month time span. How did you deal with this from the farrier perspective?
