Well what happened to Sullivan to cause his laminitis? If it's an abcess or some open injury to the hoof, soaking is best. If there's swelling, there are cooling gels & other products to help swelling. Since i dont know Sullivan's real diagnosis, (whatever caused his laminitis) i cant give much more than that. Sorry! Hope i helped!

Q: Ok, I have had two (well, more lke 4 but only 2 lasted a long time) leased ponies/horses in my life. Everybody tells me that it is always a good idea to have my lease in writing but I don't. I lease one from my trainer and one from my family friends and have never had problems with either. I guess I'm just looking for a discussion of the good and bad things about getting the lease in writing.

Getting things in writing is always a better choice to avoid terrible things. A girl i knew owned 3 horses, & only got to keep 1. This was all because her instructor took her other 2 since there was no proof of purchase, or, nothing in writing. A possible reason for this not being a problem to you is that the people you leased from are people you know well & are probably alot nicer, more trustworthy, & honest than my friend's trainer. (she was a grinch... literally)
The only disadvantages of needing everything in writing is the HASTLE! It can be a bit of a pain in the bum.
If you truly feel that these people are trustworthy enough, & you know them well enough... then you dont need to worry about it at all. It really is your choice to make. ^-^

There are many foods for older dogs that are supposed to help these problems! ^-^ Arthritis is a big factor in older dogs. Your dog may just have some arthritis bothering him (or a weight problem, or both. but you didnt specify about a weight problem) I had a 15-year-old dog named Belle who had terrible arthritis from the time she was 8 till she died about 1 and a half years ago. She was on medication prescribed from the Vets office & we fed her some dog food the vet reccomended. So i guess that the main point of this entire paragraph is to suggest seeing a vet! n_n
