Help needed for heifer

[Anonymous]

Ihave a 7 month old heifer that i plan to keep for a replacement. Lately she has been limping and favoring her left hind leg.I put her in the shoot and checked her hoof for anything abnormal and it looks fine. There is no swelling around the hoof or the ankle. The last day or so she sort of drags her hoof instead of lifting it and setting it down.Any ideas appreciated.
