“…Any decrease in HWA, DP-A angles measurements may be an indicator for chronic laminitis with dropped or rotated DP (Tanaka et al, 2002). However, in the present study S-founder (7.8 ± 1.5mm) was less than that previously measured in horse (10.4 ± 0.36 mm) (Vosugh et al, 2017) which attributed to the differences in size between horse and donkey. However, changes in DP-ground distance (DP-G) and S-founder measurements than normal indicate presence of hoof laminitis with rotation and/or sinking of DP (Rocha et al, 2004 andMasoudifard et al, 2014).…”
