Foal's injury update..

[charliesarmy]

Thank you for all your advice last night...but for the record I was'nt going to leave his tetanus programme to still commence at the end of the month..although I did ramble last night my main concerns were wether he should have been in or out and just panic stations as he'd had no tet's..so forgive me if thats how it came across..

Well rang vet this morning and she came out although he was a angel decided to give him a small sedative so not too upset him and give a good clean and investigation...so, it is a puncture although not too deep so gave it a clean...and creamed up..he had a straight away tetanus cover..and his first tet jab..a antibiotic jab and flu jab..and his microchip *since he was sedated* also had a nut check one still isn't as decended as would be liked so he will be asessed again at his next jab time

.. he's got a 5 day course of antibiotics and bute...and learn't he is approx 360kg's so will have to up the wormer as have been dosing him at 300kg

so a eventful day...but now very relieved..
