saddlesore said:When the farrier says "it looks like canker", on what is he basing his diagnosis? Antibiotics should be begun ASAP.
Keep us informed!
TotalControl said:He just looked at it we have been soaking in epsom salt, Antibiotic, gauze pad, covering it ...
TotalControl said:GOOD NEWS !!!!! The vet came out today (she was on vacation) IT is NOT Canker ... She believes it was an abscess that may have blown out or her mare stepped on something.. So she gave her some antibiotic pads to insert so she should be OK soon ....
I'm not, LeBeBe is. His new home is in NC. His new owner is picking him up this weekend.persimmoncf said:Happyappy. Warlock and Spunky are fine from the ride at the LOMH. I did front shoe them for that ride. They both have tough arab hooves and would of been fine without shoes (other than chips from creek stones). Now if only I could sell mine - no one has even come to see him . What are ya goning to NC for?
happyappygirl said:if this friend is at where you are boarding, you all take great care of them so I seriously doubted it was canker
TotalControl said:Yes it is one of the Arab mares .. Ladora.. Rocky's feet are ok but amira seems still alittle soar in the left front ..touchy on the rocks .. Z wants to put shoes on her but she has never had shoes on .. Won't that screw up her feet???
mygoldnhorse said:I would think really hard about whether you want to start putting shoes on her.
MGH
I know that's what I told Z ..So I don't think we willl she is 15 and as far as wwe know has never had shoes and was an endurance horse..I think also the next time R.V. does rocky's feet I won't be getting borem (SP??) He said I don't need them and they cost to much for my pocket anyway...Even with a Family discount
I am board sitting here waiting for my mom thank god for wireless
