The BHW Book Worm Posts: 1768	about 2 weeks ago filly was kicked. Was pretty darn lame gave Bute put on rest. About a week later she seemed sound. Vet was out said filly was nice n square but when palpated area was extremely sore. Vet things it's most likely just deep bruising due to how fast it was getting better. My question is do u bring your horses back with light work if they still have body soreness due to injury? Edited by Thistle2011 2014-05-30 3:44 AM

The BHW Book Worm Posts: 1768	She is in a stall with a run for good now. She seems really happy though and enjoys her next door neighbors. I decided I can't take the risk of her getting hurt hurt ( she asked for it from the other horses she is a 2 year old alpha ) she doesn't just have bite marks all over her but puncture wounds and it was just a matter of time till she was seriously hurt.i have decided on at least another week off and I started hand walking her yesterday. I know moving her to a stall with run does not guarantee anything but it will sure help Edited by Thistle2011 2014-05-30 11:13 AM
