Broken Leg

Here are a couple of pictures of a youngster I do that broke her long pastern of her hind just below the fetlock as a foal in an accident in the field. I was asked to trim her by Arundel vets after the surgery to reassure her foot was well balanced and not going put stress on the brake. She's now a 3 year old, completely sound and there is no real external signs that anything ever happened.
