    I ride and care for my bosses horse who doesn't have time to ride. I went away for 2 and a half months, when I came back I looked at her feet and her back right looked like this. I know a little about barefoot trimming and I've never seen this. Can someone tell me what I should do about it?

    Its quite common to see bruising like this, could be trauma, you can see this in white feet on the dorsal wall. It could be a wing that got caught on a lip of the concrete. Can I ask if you trimmed the foot or a hoof care professional, or are you a hoof care professional?
