Jack's 4 week update

Time for an update on Jack, who has been here 4 weeks today. As usual, his original photos are the upper ones and the most recent are below. 


A better frog is the most obvious, along with a broader and more functional caudal hoof (heels and digital cushion). 



From the side you can see that the nail holes are nearly grown out but his toe and dorsal wall were already in good shape so the changes are not so dramatic to see. 



From this angle you can see the development in his caudal hoof and digital cushion over the last 4 weeks. 



Similar changes to the LF but this foot already had a better digital cushion than his LF. 



Can you tell that he was clipped before he came?! That has definitely grown out...



Interestingly the frog has improved on this foot, it is much more load bearing than it was, so all in all good development to see.
