Saphie 12/03/25 Subjective: Saphie has had some intermittent issues with stiffness when turning and when being out for longer period of time. Stands square and even on each limb. Wide chest and narrow hindquarter stance. Conformation slightly downhill with croup high. Stressed and showing some behavioural signs of discomfort or referred pain. Weight looks good. Gait: Right pelvic hip drop, left side braced and stiff. Tracks up in walk and trot, Less flexion right hind-limb. Left hindlimb lands audiably heavier than the right. Tail is straight and limbs track straight in flight. Turning shows good curvature of the neck and back with good foot placement, timing and height. Saffie is aware of her feet and can move well – a little stilted left turn. Palpation – Tension in the neck bilaterally, joints able to flex but musculature is restrictive. Poll shows tension and is resented being palpated here. Eating shows even use of the jaw and masseter muscle. Brachiocephalicus muscle showing tension and reactivity right side. Trapezius on the right side also inflamed and reactive, small granuloma nodules seen this side. Lumbar tension is markedly reduced from last visit.
