... and I don't know what to do, I've never seen anything like it before. Please help!

The horse in question is an elderly warmblood for those who don't know him. He's been in great health recently, was wondering if the snow might be a factor? :confused:

First thing I noticed was a couple of lumps behind his ears. They are similar in size and shape.














Then his legs fell off :eek: :eek:

























He hasn't lost his appetite though, so I'm hoping it's nothing serious and his legs will grow back :D

And his tongue has turned orange! I think you should X-ray for kissing spines & scope for ulcers. Great pic, & do you know poundland sells flashing red Rudolph noses with elastic attached that is perfect for fastening them to nosebands?
 
Rhino,

I could be so cross with you. I read your thread heading, and went cold. That's not funny. :mad:....... but it could be, in half an hour! ;)

How is the boy Tam?

Alec. :D

....... and peer for piles. ;) Do horses get haemorrhoids? I'm not actually that interested, it's just out of curiosity, you understand. ;)

That horse is probably telling his mates, "There's something very wrong with my owner. She thinks I'm a moose. Do you think she should see a professional about that?"

Mwahaha! Good job there's no horsey equivalent of childline!


He's had to put up with me for 14 years, I think the boy deserves a medal :D
 
Rhino! I didn't know you owned the rare Reinhorse, crossed with a reindeer, every 12 months, they grow antlers and their legs drop off as they prepare to grow a set of wings too ;) Apparently, they're known to spit carrot coloured missiles when groomed :D

Thank you, I am fairly pleased overall with him although he is lacking muscle - to be expected I suppose :( Am going to begin some careful in hand work with him to try and combat further loss.

Clearly a case of 'clashy clashy' rather than 'matchy matchy' :)

He does have a lovely new leather headcollar and leadrein in 'chestnut' leather which matches him nicely! Christmas pressie :D
