    Experiences - abcess in throat and trachotamony

    Thanks for your response. The problem I have with the permanent trach is that we are resting from hock surgery on the left and a ligament strain on the right hock. To put her through more box rest and end up with a horse I cannot ride unfortunately is not an option. She's only 7 :( will invest...

    Experiences - abcess in throat and trachotamony

    The vets are still not sure as it's quite uncommon. They think something she has eaten has punctured the soft tissue or cartledge around her larnyx. Maybe wire or wood in the hay. We really don't know. It's hardbreaking to see her. Just hoping steriods and anti-inflammatories can help fight it.

    Stanley's hock fusion journey

    Hi kittygirl. Did you manage to find your rehab plan? I've picked my mare up from the vets today and other than two weeks box rest I've been given no other instructions. I did ask but the treating vet was not there x

    Stanley's hock fusion journey

    Hi thanks for your response. Yes the vet advised she would be sore and with her hock being a mess to start with it may take a bit longer for her to come right. But he was very positive about the outcome which is good. He also said she would need to use the hock to make it fuse. He didn't want...

    Stanley's hock fusion journey

    Hi kinnygirl. My mare has had her hock drilled today and the rehab plan the vet has given me is very quick. Basically two weeks box rest then turnout and ride. That seems far to quick for me. Do you have a plan what the vet gave you that you could share? X
