Hope--knuckled over and foundered

This is the shoe that was supposed to stop this mare from knuckling over. It didn't do too much.

This is the solar view of the knuckled over foot. Note the huge, knuckled-over bars! Lowering the heels and bars would be the key to fixing this problem.

This photo was taken in Aug. '99. At Christmas, when I wrote to ask how Hope was doing, her owner wrote: "I wish I could say she was better, but about two months ago she coliced and I had to put her down. Her colon ruptured. But her feet had improved greatly. I am very grateful for all your help over the last several months. I've learned so much I no longer freak out when I hear the word founder....Again, Thank You!"
