Silky's update

Well, Silky is improving, slowly...Her heels are spreading already and her sole and frog are already showing signs of toughening. She has been in her Boa boots and pads. I had added frog support pads to the frogless pads. They were the softest pads and she eventually condensed them to nothing. 2 days ago I moved her to the medium support pads for both sole and frog support.
It's funny tho, I have noticed that when she is w/out boots for 1/2 a day her stress level increases and her eyes get bloodshot. So that has been an indicator to her heel pain.
I have added aspirin and joint juice to her diet about 3 weeks ago, in an attempt to help w/pain and to hopefully improve mobility. I am doing more photos this w/end to show changes when I trim, I will try and get them added.
