I'm happy to hear shes doing well. I have a mare that went thru a barbwire fence and had to have the extensor muscle removed.... well, a nine inch section of it anyways. I was never able to ride her after that but she is a happy brood mare/pasture buddy now. :)
HAHAHA I love how she bites the colt! She like "Do you really think I am in the mood th elet you nurse?!?" Poor baby we had a 2 month old palomino filly break her hind leg and she was in a cast forever!! She was a very playful thing though
I only have hotwire or panels-while I was on vacation. The mare got out & our neighbors down the road did have old barbed wire that was down in their field (it has since been removed). I don't mind questions (really). Its just when someone offers advice off the cuff (when they don't know the whole story-that HAS been posted)-its irritating.
She'd gotten out of my pasture while we were on vacation & got into barbed wire in a neighboring place.
Look at my 3 month out video of her-she's recovered wonderfully. We are now over a year out & she is pregnant & gets around great (which includes running, bucking, rearing, anything that a "normal" horse does in the pasture-she just drags that leg just a bit. I do keep a shoe on that one hoof to keep it from being overly worn.
She got out of our pasture while we were on vacation & got into the neighbor's barbed wire-her extensor carpi radialis muscle (forearm) was down to her pastern-it wasn't able to be saved-they had to surgically remove it. She also severed her extensor tendon. She's doing awesome now & is in foal for a 2009 baby. Look at my other video that shows her 3 months post injury. Pretty amazing-I think.
I don't have barbed wire fences-we were on vacation & she'd gotten out of our fence & got into the neighbor's barbed wire fence. (they've since taken down most of their barbed fence).
She injured her radialis muscle and it was hanging to her fetlock. They had to surgically remove it. She also severed the extensor tendon-She just had surgery again about 3 weeks ago to remove a "bone spur" of sorts from her injured leg. She's doing great.
she's doing really well (look @ my Leah 3 months post right leg injury video). On a (somewhat) side note she went into surgery again on thurs-she'd been having abscess issues-always in the same place-anyway-it was from a "bone spur" of sorts-not as dense as regular bone, but that was the source of the abscesses-I should pick her up this week.
She's not "perfectly fine" but in my other video-she moves better than many horses with 4 good legs. Have you seen the other video? It happened on July 6th. We are just 7 weeks out. Yes, that was her colt-he's weaned now. He wasn't injured. She's an amazing little mare.
We're now fighting an ongoing absess-deep. Possibly from the remnant of her extensor tendon. When we get a break in the weather-I'll take her back to WSU for an ultrasound & they may need to do surgery again to remove the tendon that's left (if that's the issue) Thanks for your comments by the way ;-)
It was at the time, but I'm thrilled at her recovery!! This whole thing showed me how blessed I am with the friends & family I have-they've been incredible!
She she is perfectly fine now? Or when did this happen? I'm guessing that is her foal by her side also..? It is amazing that she is up and walking even in this video a day after it happened.
random foal in the stall? or hers?
