Hi,
got maisie in from the field last night to find a 3 legged horse!! she was soo lame she wasnt putting her left hind down at all. i was so worrie dshe had broken her leg but it turns out that is was an abcess--i worry!!!!

so its a couple of days of box rest a few more off work, and lots of vetrap and poultice. she is sound now but lots of lovely pus is coming out still! ukk!
anyway...marks out of ten for the poulticing!!!!!!!

aww poor maisie hope shes feeling better soon, at least youve got it sorted now bet shes loving the attention of being in

well marks out of 10 for poulticing....11! looks like youve got it sorted, we end up covering ours with duck tape (quack!) to stick em firmly on...getting them off is a mission though!

abcesses always seem worse than they are dont they weve had horses coming in hopping lame like you say and thought the worse only to find a lil abcess...one of our vets loves cutting the good ones out ;D

oh, and maisie is looking gorgeous as normal

hehe yeah the vetrap great stuff, we are just obsessed that they will get wet in stables so cover em in tape as well ;D i use vetrap on my ankle when its bad and im showing, not too pleased bout my ankle but thats another story ;D

aww not much sleep then, we were at yard til late yesterday cause one of the liveries had farrier and he found big abcesses in both back feet (long long story that not even going to go into on here) and he has to be poulticed for next 5 days to get it out as they are pretty bad

yeah speak soon,
