Yesterday, Sammi put his foot through some frozen snow and when he pulled it out he ripped the skin off down to the tendon. Nice. Hope she is feeling better soon.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-65576437845545197122009-12-14T15:08:55.836-08:002009-12-14T15:08:55.836-08:00Rehab is every so slow in horses....

And yes, Jeremiah, the farrier suggested some silocone spray, but at the moment I'm not willing to lift any leg to even spray it. Really do not want to aggrevate the injury more. And unfortuneately it was serious ice balls, however, it has warmed up conderably and now I'm sure her feet are relatively clear. We'll just have to take it one day at a time. I am encouraged by her forward movement as initial injury, she was doing the backwards three legged hop, so I know we are better now, but like I said, this will be a long recovery. I mean months, I'm sure.Calliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704537697611988375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-30589207992655125852009-12-14T10:39:13.609-08:002009-12-14T10:39:13.609-08:00Owie...and the iceballs in the feet do not help at...Owie...and the iceballs in the feet do not help at all. I forget...is she shod? Snow pads help a ton if the horse has shoes, but if she is barefoot, then that must be some potent snow/ice you guys have there. <br /><br />Good luck and give Misty a kiss from me....make it all better. *sigh*Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10029423500476995817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-59409797120145715772009-12-14T10:02:18.607-08:002009-12-14T10:02:18.607-08:00Oh man, that sucks!
