So if you've seen previous posts of mine, i have recently gotten an new mare, oh about a month or more by now. Her feet were long and tender when i got her, but where she was fed primarily had a concrete pad, so i was thinking her feet should feel better after a trim, and being on real ground. She has made no improvement. The farrier didn't notice anything looking like bruising or abscess, we had talked about her tenderness.
My question is, how long should I let her 'come out of it'. I assume long hoofs holding and packing then standing on concrete most of the day would take a while to work out, but I'm getting anxious. How long should I wait? It seems to affect her fronts more, she is always seen holding up either front hoof.
