Taking Pearl to the vet tomorrow

[livaward]

When Steve was out to trim the ponies he said that Pearl might have a bowed tendon in the leg she cut really badly:( so I am going to take her to the vet and get it ultra-sounded.

[Dakota Sunrise]

I sure hope I'm wrong...but ....that think looks B-A-D !!!!

[FatSpottedAppy]

Oh no.. :( What happens if she does? Will she still be sound for riding?

[livaward]

Well everything looks great the vet said.....did an ultrasound and everything is healing in line and no bows and no infection........he gave her a RVI shot and I forgot to ask what the real name is but he said it will help......and I am to give her another one on Friday.....I was so relieved to hear that she will be fine once this thing heals over.

While I was there these old guys kept gawking over her LOL.....and once they heard that she would be 100% then they offered to buy her LOL.....sorry guys she's not for sale :p They gave me their number if I ever change my mind......

[lovesfortune]

do you have an updated picture of her, so we know what steve and your vet was looking at?

[livaward]

I can get one.....brb

[livaward]

I have to admit it looks bad but it is getting better.....it looked awful when she had the proud flesh growing that looked awful!

Here you go

Ah - well I can see why Steve thought it might be bowed.

Glad to hear she will heal in time. :)

[lovesfortune]

ouch. i'm glad the vet says she will be alright.

thanks for showing the pictures. i always want to know what things look like in case i have to deal with it at all.

[livaward]

I know me too.....When Steve left I came inside and was trying to find multiple pictures of a bowed tendon but I couldn't really find any.......I am so glad to hear she will be fine...

[zoel_222]

Glad she's ok! I sure can see why Steve thought it was bowed.

[Gypsy Rose]

Glad to hear that Pearl's going to be okay. From the pic, it looks really scary.

[HoustonFarrier]

Good news...I like it when I am wrong :) (It doesn't happen often :p)

Steve

[JennyandJosey]

I can see why he'd think it were bowed too. Is that still swelling from the injury?

[Vegashorselady]

Well, I'm glad the vet had good news. It's nice to have that peace of mind. That does look scary though!

[quest]

Also agree it definetely LOOKs like a bowed tendon, glad the results of the vet showed otherwise :) Bowed tendons are not something you want to deal with

[livaward]

I know.....i was soooo worried that I would never get to ride Pearl ever again.....
