Hi Valletta,

Poor boy, he's been having a bit of a rough time lately.

Based on the rads, the trim can take a lot of that toe away. There is also a  lot of flaring all the way around, which is part of the the white line issues you are seeing. Because he is an IR horse, all discussions - including hoof ones - should remain on the main ECIR group.

I can get you mark-ups for his next trim but it would be helpful if you could provide a full set of photos for all four feet, as trim issues are rarely confined to only one foot. Here's what's needed:

The lateral and dorsal shots should include the cannon bones and Rego should be standing as squarely s possible on the foot being photographed. Only need the dorsal, lateral, sole and sole plane for each one. Just post to the main group once the pix are up.
