Welllllll
Annabell FINALLY had her hooves done (the farrier said she was AT LEAST 6 months overdue!!!!!!! :shock: )
Anyways, her "problem" was that when she would canter it would feel like her left back leg was going to collapse underneath her...almost as if that one leg was on glass or ice.
We thought at first it was because she has no muscles or anything like that, so we worked on building up the muscles, yet it still didn't work :(
So when the farrier trimmed her feet we randomly asked him if her hooves could be causing it...and he said it could because her toes were sooooo long.

So my friend got on her warmed her up, and then asked for canter and all she was doing was yelling "OMG" over and over again.
Then she stopped and she said her legs were back to normal.

Her cantering problem was just because her long toes were and it was causing her to be unbalanced.

We are just soooooooooooo thankful that it wasn't an old injury or something worse!!!!!!!!

Cookies and doughnuts and Starbucks drinks in celebration!!! YAY! lol
