Sanna
Yesterday I could tell Sanna was not comfortable and her hind leg was swelling up. She usually has an outbreak of this skin condition when it is wet muddy weather or when she doesn't move around. She is usually NOT lame with this condition so this morning when she didn't want to put weight on that leg it was a real concern. Dr. Hoerr was called to ask him to come today, not wait until Wednesday. We believe she may have an abscess in that foot, causing her to not move around which caused the leg to swell. She was moved into a stall and given hay and water and Dr. Hoerr should be here by 11:00am. She is due in a month we sure don't want to do anything to jeopardize this foal.
