"Ember" Deceased
Our Black Beauty. So very sad.
One day Ember was a beautiful happy, incredibly correct filly and the next.... she was club footed, unhappy and sore.
After months of corrective trimming we took her to Sydney to see what was going on as club foot has never been known within the Stud. Thinking that cub was fixable and still not understanding "how?", we were absolutely gutted when told she had broken her fetlock, that there was nothing to be done to fix the break and that her pain and angle of hoof (exposing her peddle bone to wear) was only going to get worse and we were left with the most horrible decision.
