problems with synovia, how to solve???

My racefilly is normally having a very good walk with overstride from the back, shortend into a stiff short stride at the back, seems like walking in two parts. The good front part and the bad back part with the short type of walking.
Maybe infected hawks at the back???
Anyone??
It sounds now as get them injected with a kind of missing own body fluid for replacing her own.
She ran a couple of times on rock hard, firm turf. I think she got damage on this surface.

Check out www.Lubrisyn.com. I give it to all my racehorses. My wife and mother-in-law take it. They say it's a miracle cure. Worth a look.

A good way to check for injury is to check for heat , and a good way to check for heat is by purchasing a laser thermometer, which you can purchase at an auto parts store for less than two hundred dollars. It can help with early detection of problems. It measures temperature changes in tenth of degrees.

A filly can also walk in the manner you are describing by having ovulation problems. Adding higher fat to the diet by corn or rice oil (gamma organyzol) - especially for very fit/lean animals - can help.
