Went to the stables early this morning to walk him out before all the horses were turned out as I thought it would be quieter. (The field is in view of the stables) He was so good the night before when he walked across to the xray room I didnt think I'd have a problem but put his bridle on just incase and walked up the stable block and thought we'd walk round the school as its soft and enclosed. What a mistake, cant believe how stupid I was. He was fine at first, then he grew to about 17.2 and exploded, rodeoing on the spot. I held on to him and my friend came across and got the other side of him and we all half passed back to his stable. All I could think was oh god his leg, apparantly thats all I was saying too.
He seems to be fine thankfully but I wont be going in there again. I was hoping I could take him to pick at some grass but I cant risk it now.
Took him again tonight, gotta admit I was scared, not of him but for his leg but we stook to the concrete and walked up and down the stable block, he was much better. If he is full of it tomorrow I will have a word with the vet as Leahurst said to give him ACP if needed. Leahurst said walking him will help his fracture heal due to the increased blood supply.
Roll on tomorrow morning Eeek
