Jut been to feed the horses and Fly is on 3 legs. Cannot weigh bear on her offside hock, which is extremely swollen and hot. When walked forwards gently to assess, her whole body is wobbling and even her forelegs are shaking when not on the ground. She looks calm in herself, but when she tries to move it is absolutely heartbreaking.
The vet is coming asap but...and I know I am clutching at straws here...if there is anyone in the Minsterworth area of Gloucester that would have a spare stable on the offchance that she could be moved, could you please post here or PM me and let me know. This horse is just the most beautiful girl and I will do anything I can to help her so long as it doesn't cause more pain. It would also mean finding someone to take her little companion for a few days until the RSPCA can pick her up as she can't be left here alone if Fly can go somewhere. Insurance won't cover a hospital stay and her owners (not signed over yet) will not pay for anything like that. If I have to make that tough decision, I will if it is best for Fly but please please...ask anyone you know who lives in or around Gloucester if they can help with either a stable or a temporary (few days) home for the pony.
Thank you
Cheryl.
