I am of course, a vet of hundreds of years experience, but where is a "Cannon" bone? Can it not be set with splints etc? It's like our furmur bone, think I misspelled that. No it cannot be set. It was her hind leg. |

I imagine pulling a Surrey,( with or without a fringe on top) behind a F350 isnt a romantic proposition
|

|
|
no, not at all.

I vaguely recollect seeing a horse in a sling, with most of its weight taken by a rafter, after a broken leg. I also think the horse was a "money is no object" animal that had won huge$'s. It was to be retired to stud

Yes, that has happened..it took months of tending to. It was a race horse..this one was not that lucky...the cost could easily go into the hundreds of thousands for care like that. The horse that your are thinking of had a hairline fracture, ours had her bone broken into.

I appreciate the two horses circumstances were wildly different, but since I now nowt about horses, I thought that I should mention it. Obviously it was too late. About all I know about horses is how to make them run slow! I'm so good at that I've been banned at the local race course

Yeppers, it certainly seemed that way. If Vivian had realised how close it was, she might have stayed awake for another couple of minutes
