[QUOTE="alisonb, post: 1041542, member: 13050"] Am wondering what shots the vet gave him at birth, did it include an anti inflam? It may well be a calving related(assisted birth) injury - dislocation, muscle, tendons, ligaments, fracture etc. The fact that it walked fine for a week bothers me unless he was administered anti inflam and was not feeling pain. It could well be joint ill, medicating an animal with joint ill is often unrewarding. There could be damage to the cartilage of the shorter leg that could cause permanent damage. How does the navel look now? Peeling hooves, bleeding mouth, back legs contracting, knots/abscesses(probably infected injection sites) - it just doesn't sound good for Moose, his stomach flora has probably had it from all the antibiotics as well. I suggest you call you vet, good luck. [/QUOTE]
