Our vet thought this was foot rot from my description to him. He did not see it. Never had one do this before. We did what he suggested, does not seemed to have improved in 2 days though? Any suggestions?

Took your advice and retreated her yesterday with LA200.
Gave me a good scare, she started kicking at her belly, picking up a leg and shaking it, and just overall acting weird. Was that some kind of reaction to the LA200? A first for me.

Tom on top of Dun's advice mix up 10 to 20% clorox and water in a pump up sprayer and spray her feet down. You might want to start supplementing iodine it will shut down the hoof rot takes a long time to work but it stops it in a herd.
