Day 56

Eight weeks after arriving at the Equine Rehabilitation Center, barely able to walk, Chance is saddled up and put through his paces.

As you will see in the videos on this page, Chance's ease of movement at the walk, trot and canter - barefoot - is remarkable.

Chance still needs some time to complete the rehabilitation of his right fore deep digital flexor tendon, but he is showing absolutely no pain in the navicular region with hoof testing and moves through all of his gaits with a fluidity that was not possible just eight weeks ago.
