Nicky checked the pony this morning and she is confident that the problem is a foot abscess. This may be caused by walking on the hard ground of the track. She tells me that there isn't any particular treatment that she or a vet could give and that the fluid should naturally disperse. She moved the pony onto some of the softer, wet ground and there she moved fine, with no issues.
She advises us to keep an eye on her and she is happy to come up again if needed. It's reassuring that it's nothing serious and hopefully should clear up.
Also Nicky has removed some of the ponies to Hawley, now we have MoD consent to graze with ponies there too (which is great news!!) So there's now a total of 6 NF ponies on LV and we have 4 ponies on Hawley.
Thanks very much indeed.
