Here's an article (scientific one) published re an elk with laminitis and how it was treated. It might shed some light...

Is the ground froze? Sometime our deer walk funny when there is no snow and the ground is frozen.

The reason I asked about her walking on egg shells is because we had one do the same thing. We found out she had servived EHD. The stress from her having fawns brought back the symptoms. Ours had lost a lot of weight. So we hit her with a conditioner probiotic to help put the weight back on her. If I get a chance I will post some pics of her, the results where amazing.
