@pucvm.bsky.socialLaminitis is a painful condition affecting the structures that support the bones inside a horse’s hoof.
Warm hooves, increased digital pulses, reluctance to walk and repeated weight shifting can be warning signs.
Contact your veterinarian promptly if you suspect laminitis.
@pucvm.bsky.socialWhat does “down on sound” mean during an equine lameness exam?
With front-limb lameness, a horse may raise its head as the painful limb lands and lower it as the sound limb bears weight.
Identifying the limb is only the first step.
