well Comet came in lame again last wed ! ended up worried sick for the 2 hours i spent with him deciding what to do anyway with the help of our YO and the girls we decided it was not bad enough to call the vet out ! decided to give him a danilon and see how he was in the morning ! ( no heat or raised pulse ) Morning arrives to comet neither better nor worse so decided to ring vet for advise ! she adv to hot poultice and ring in morning and would book ,me in for a zone visit ( no visit charge) and get the farrier to take his shoe off ( which we did ) Fri am vet arrives checks foot for pulse heat soreness ( none ) bloomin weird anyway thinks could have been nail bound or have a small abcess my poor boy has had no luck ! anyway poulticed for the weekend then left to harden mon & tues on checking again last night he can put weight on it and turn on it but has a bit of heat but still no pulse ! adv form vet this am not to worry too much about the heat as long as no pulse and not raging hot and try put shoe on tomo ( fingers crossed ) watch this space

Well the show is back on now ! no sign of an abcess either so very strange ! I think he must have beenmessing around in the field and come down on something! other than that he vet thought he could have been nail bound! but sound on it now which is the main thing . Came in yesterday with a cut under his eye saw him playing with the other horses doing that " who can get the other horses head in there mouth " game cos they cant get to the grass tpical men eh

I know ours have'nt been out for a few days 'cos there no grass, they just have a walk round while spider mucks out then back in again.They know theres plenty to eat in the stables. Glad Comet is sound again, put some wonder gel on the cut we find it very good.
