Copper Kid On The Rebound

[Lexnaulaaprillia]

Where are you located? He probably really should be a well cared for pasture pet and not be ridden for safty reasons. He still loves you to go jogging with him like a dog. Do you know of any reputable lifelong rescues or animal santuarys in southern oregon or northern california? Just incase my hubby and I deside to have kids and then could not afford my very loved and well carred for pasture pet.

he fell while I was lunging him had a slight limp that got better. So a year later I started riding him lightly. I was cantering one day and he tripped did a summer salt and fell on and broke my ankle. I had the vet out a couple of months later he passed the lameness tests but not the neurolocical ones. He passed the EPM test. He said I could ride him if I felt safe, at least he wo'nt loose to much muscle. I do'nt feel safe, but he's my baby and he loves to get out on careful slow rides.

This is such a happy video, I love it. Please tell me if he is still doing good or not??? The vet thinks my friesian andalusian cross probably has some form of wobblers. He fails the neurolocical tests and passes the lameness ones. He's slowly gotten worse. I got him at 7 months and he is now a little over 3 yrs. At a1.5yrs. started noticing one rear hoof growing a little crooked, and sometimes slightly swinging out ward circles with it when he walked. Around the same time....

@Lexnaulaaprillia "...sometimes swinging out ward circles with it when he walked." My mare does this with her front left leg. It is called 'Paddling' and is actually common in some breeds such as the Andalusian. It doesn't cause any problems, and isn't anything to worry about; it just looks funny, lol. Just thought I would help out where I could, ^^

@AppyArt It's usually only prevalent in the front feet when it's paddling.
