Abstract

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