I managed to walk her down the field her hind end was going side ways & she had no co ordination going through the gap to her stable? I got the vet out but they couldnt say what it is? They just gave me painkillers shes improved slightly but wen you first bring her out the stable she a bit wobbly on her hind end then the faster she walks the better she is but walks with her back feet very close together almost crossing each other could this be wobblers syndrome?

The symptom is her back ankles pop, bob and down, pop ( with no sound) It is almost like she is walking along and then all of a sudden she acts like she has just stepped on something, had a sharp pain but keep on going. Sometimes she really resists going down hill even on grass. I can watch her in the pasture just leasurely walking and do the same thing. I have had my ferrier out 2 times, the first I told him about the problem and the second I showed him what she was doing. I have been limiting my riding for feal it will be worse not to mention when I am riding her when she does this I think she is stumbling. If I can I will take a video of her problem. I know this is long winded, but I am trying to give as much information as possible I have a 3 year old appy qtr horse that has a problem with her back ankles, hoofs, frog, pasterns etc. I
