Abstract

A three-day-old Arabian filly with a history of not being able to stand unassisted after birth and lack of control overthe right front and right hind limbs. The filly had inadequate proprioceptive responses, with absent pain/withdraw answer, andfailed to respond to medical therapy. Due to the poor prognosis, euthanasia was elected, and a full necropsy was performed.
