I sure hope so too, its odd seeing Milo in his less then happy demeanor.<br /><br />Milo has a way of being adorable in his photos ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891429741466165577.post-35456307788872095172011-01-25T14:15:18.311-08:002011-01-25T14:15:18.311-08:00Abscesses are interesting little creatures... bot...Abscesses are interesting little creatures... both of the ones Lilly had made themselves quite obvious, but it sounds like Milo's are less so, at least in the beginning. Do you think you'll ask your farrier to come back out, or maybe the vet?<br /><br />Here's hoping he's feeling back to his old self again soon! <br /><br />The pictures are adorable, by the way!!in2paintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721328264615241612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891429741466165577.post-11635850003264667012011-01-25T08:56:18.260-08:002011-01-25T08:56:18.260-08:00Last summer one of our horses went lame...like rea...Last summer one of our horses went lame...like really, really visably lame. His owner suspected an abscess, but when the farrier used the hoof testers, it looked like he didn't have one. The farrier did say it could just be a "deeper" abscess, and lone behold a day or two later it blew out and the horse looked way better. Net (BO) always says that she likes abscess for that reason: they look really, really bad when they form, but once they "blow," it's an almost immediate difference.<br /><br />Sending good, healing thoughts to Mr. Milo!Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127842562111344534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891429741466165577.post-67699431037989916332011-01-25T08:19:38.468-08:002011-01-25T08:19:38.468-08:00Nice pictures!

Could be an abscess, could be a soft tissue strain inside the hoof capsule - the tendons and ligaments end up inside there - Dawn had one of those last fall and it took a while to get better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
