Maggie Lame Again!


A sad day for Maggie!

It was a sad day when we brought Maggie in for a drive last week only to discover that she was slightly lame. Wally called the vet immediately and on close inspection it was decided that it was almost certainly laminitis again.

This has yet to be confirmed next week with a possible X-ray and a visit from Keith, our farrier, who has a wealth of experience in his field.

For the time being she has come off the grass and is stabled on restricted diet of hay and twice daily "bute" (pain-killer) on a deep bed of shavings.
