I suspect it happened back in March. He was trying to kick out at mom’s old guy, who can get pretty cranky and chase the others when it’s time to come in. I saw Whitey plant his front feet to kick out with the hind and his right front twisted sort of funny at the shoulder because of the mud.

He was sore for a few days after that but it quickly disappeared after 3 days on bute. All of a sudden last week he was sore again. Bute seemed to help but in the middle of a very easy work he really just sort of lost it on that shoulder. He’s very lame now and on stall rest. Dropping him off at the trainer so he and the vet and farrier can get to the bottom of it. I suspect it’s going to just be long stall rest.
