Well after we started bringing kyra back into work, - going brilliantly!! started doing 25-30mins hacking, we turned her out about 4 days ago, and came in with her hock bleeding, to be honest we didnt think much of it, why would you if it stopped bleeding?,
the lighting was crap so couldnt see much washed it off, hippi scrubbed it and at first we thought it was a bit of mud fever any way it had stopped bleeding so didnt bother calling vet out or anything,
turned out again a couple of days later and she came in with blood on her hock again, from what mum said, it had scabbed up, i tried clipping the fur off to try and see what was going on but the clipper died on me
and course it was dark again so didnt see anything,from bringing her in we thought it was mud fever cuz of the scab
she has been buted up for the past 2weeks any way, with her sacrilliac, ,
- looking at it when she first did it i would you say it would have to be stitched or vet,
anyway, mum got farrier just to look at it when he came out, he said i would call the vet out, because of infection etc,
didnt think much of it, anyway had to get the emergency vet out,
they said she was very very lucky to of just missed one of her ligaments, if the cut went any further down even by a mm, she would of had to of had a opperation, she is now all bandaged up on penicillen, and can only walk out of the stable to be mucked out, if she goes seriously lame now she is off the bute, then further action will need to be required
well things have to come in threes dont they so what on earth is going to happen next
