The hind feet thing was a litte more than a year ago. I paid for equipak for 6 (?) shoeing cycles, focus only on building a better hoof. Honestly, it did not improve her way of going at all. When the bodyworker (who is also a vet) worked on her, he didn’t notice any improvement in her (minor, according to him) backsoreness. Ultimately I stopped because some junk got under the urethane and destroyed her foot from thrush.
I’m ok with the fact that she will never go 100% sound. I have spent all I can spend on that pursuit - we’re talking in the realm of 8k +. The hindquarter asymetry is new. While all the other stuff was going on, whether or not I or they missed something in the past, when she was L.A.M.E, I never had hindquarter muscling get atrophied like this. You can see that it was not there as recent as a month ago, and you’ll have to believe me for the remainder of the time.
The muscling issue is extremely sudden onset, and is a new development/concern to me.
ETA: I’m willing to spend money on fixing any “new” or readily apparent problems, but I’m not going to keep chasing my tail on the overall hind end issue, because I’ve done everything short of an MRI and it’s not conclusive.
