had to have the vet this morning

[twisteddiamond]

i had to have the vet this morning, when i got to the yard one of the other liveries stopped me on the drive, to tell me twisty had a nasty kick on his face, so i flew up to the field, it didnt look like a kick but more like a graze, was quite swollen and weeping and nasty looking, so i had the vet out, who cleaned it up but...
it wasnt a kick but .... A CHEMICAL BURN!

my poor horsey now has no fur and horrible blistered skin on a large part of his face

i checked all round the field nothing that i could see that would have caused it, and hes the only one in the field that has it, however, he is also the only one that will happily go up to anyone that goes into the field

oh no! poor ned. how did he get that?

 

[Gorgeous George]

Oh dear, poor horsey and poor you. That must be really worrying not knowing how it happened.

 

[twisteddiamond]

well the vet thought it looked like something had been splashed in his face, but wasnt completely sure as it wasnt a typical splash pattern

 

[Dubsie]

How worrying for you. Hope his skin and fur heals properly and there's no lasting damage.
