|q1=What is your diagnosis?
|a1=
Severe laminitis.
|l1=Laminitis - Horse
|q2=Where is the horse likely to have spent the night of freedom?
|a2=
The feed room. This type of case is often associated with grain overload while the animal is out of the stable.
|l2=Laminitis - Horse#Increased Risk Factors
|q3=What treatment would you recommend?
|a3=
Discharge from the coronary band suggests that at least one hoof is starting to slough. The findings were similar in the other four feet, so the horse was destroyed.
