Just wondering if anyone's experienced an injury like this.
Was a very deep looking wound, going in a downward, slanted inward direction but the vet who stitched it up said it didnt damage any ligaments, tendons etc.
(Baring in mind it's not my horse and I didn't get chance to chat with said vet much - who I'm not even sure has equine vet training)
An English vet working with GHDT has since seen it and says he should recover - maybe it wasn't as horrific as it looked to me before the stitching.

Anyone had any experience of similar?
Did it cause any lasting problems?
Thanks
