Fawn walks without front hooves

Thanks for all the help that is provided by the experienced farmers on this page. I'm sure many, many of us read the threads on here and find info we need but neglect to thank you for your help. Hope you realize how beneficial it is to us new guys.

 
Got a fawn i need some help with. He was born with tight tendons. So much so that he will not walk on the bottom of his front hooves but curls them under and walks on his "knuckles". A day after birth we took him to the vet to get splints put on hoping it would help, but didn't seem to have much effect. Could be that he has a severe case or deformity. We are going with splints again to try and correct his walk. My question is this:

 
Has any body experienced a deer that did well with this condition and how does it pan out? Lets say he never corrects his front feet, has anybody seen a deer walk without front hooves or on their knuckles?

 


Attaching a picture, because everybody loves pictures

As of 6/15/2016 he is 9 days old.

We did give BO-SE at 24 hours. I mentioned this treatment to the vet (Bo-Se daily). He says a deficiency would cause laxity of his joints. But in his case they are too tight. Will keep you posted
