The Xray 'report' from the vet 9



Well the vet called to tell that the x rays came out well and that he didn't hold up much hope for Vegas to recover.



He said that he has 10 degrees rotation in the LF and 18 in the RF. He said he has pedal ostitis on both fronts really bad and that the tip of the coffin bone is slightly remodeled in a 'ski tip' type shape.


After looking at the x rays...the vet said that he was much worse than he thought originally on seeing him in person.


Here is the LF x ray... After I looked at both x rays...I could see what the vet was concerned about.

I also see the total misalignment of the bones, not only in the foot but up the leg as well.

I'm sure that after one trim...Vegas was more aligned and able to weight his stay apparatus more evenly.


Another pic of the vet taking x rays to see how he was stood up. In the x ray pic you can also see the frontal wall marked as well as the apex (with a thumb tack)
