Well we got back from the vet and there is no inflammation in her leg is just scar tissue. So the treatment....lots of trotting with bute....we have to cause pain to get her better....so back into training we go.....nothing hard just alot of trotting.....when we got back I took her to my neighbors and we did lots of trotting in the round pen and she is still limping.....I feel so bad for making her get out there and work when I know she is uncomfortable.....but I got to do it if I want to her get full use of her leg....:(

Hope Pearl gets well soon. I've always thought that Pearl is one of the best looking horses I've ever seen.

Poor Pearl, she is so beautiful, I love her coloring. I hope she will recover soon. I guess it's like Physical Therapy they have to make you hurt before you get better but it has to be hard to see her limping. Hope the Bute helps her some.

I hope she's back to normal in no time with all the therapy. Patriots is right, it will be worth it in the end, no matter the struggle.

Rehab time!! The things they made my Mother do after her knee replacement were next to torture. She cried everytime her rehab doc showed up (for weeks and weeks). Hang in there, hopefully she'll work that scar tissue out quickly!!!
