I've never seen someone treat an abcess quite like this before, the way he digs at both sides, but the horse seems to get instant relief and he's so gentle with the hoof. I hope she feels better soon! Job well done!
Me neither, I was about to suggest that they get a proper farrier in before this guy makes the horse completely lame! He's mutilated the hoof, it will take forever for his handy work to grow out. Poor Horse!
@@sparrowqq9949 he has done exactly the procedure needed to be done. The abscess had migrated up the inside wall of the Hoof, it has to be opened top and bottom to allow full drainage. Abscesses are a very painful problem the hoof will take months to fully heel but that can’t begin until the entire abscess is open , drained and treated. I expected to see a medicinal wrap or disinfectant used, that may have been applied after the soaking was done.
@sparrowqq9949 I was going to say the same thing but I've seen this done in cows and they heal so quickly. And knowing what i do from abcesses ive treated in horses, a big point is to get the animal out of pain and if the proper medication and upkeep is done this horse should fully recover rather quickly.
@@sparrowqq9949are you experienced in this or are you just making assumptions, like most of the experts in the comments? Everyone is a specialist in every video, but really doesn't know what they're talking about, if you know that's cool, but if you're just making assumptions, then do some research.
@@ralphhunter4889 in Brazil they never give pain relief or anesthesia for anything. They castrate with zero anesthesia. They just tie them up and cut. Look how long they allow these horses to suffer. It’s horrific!
Pain relievers don't help much with an abcess because the pain is coming from tremendous pressure within the hoof. He's doing the only thing you can to relieve the pain, by taking away the pressure. Afterwards you treat with soaks, antibiotics if it's really bad.
Actually, abscesses can come on quite quickly. The animal gets more relief when the abscess is released. Besides its very difficult to numb the hoof in that area. Also, due to the Acid/Base balance, anaesthetic would not be helpful. Yes it can maybe make the pain less but in this location it is out. The meds such as copper sulfate will help a lot more
If this gentleman is like a couple cattle hoof trimmers I follow then no he can’t give pain meds because he is not a veterinarian or the animals owner.
Poor horse. Notice how nice the horse behaves, he KNOWS the man is trying to help him and wants the help. Horses are very intelligent animals! A darling animal
What I admired most, the horse realizing she's in pain and suffering, and very patient and trusted the man! There are languages that have no words. No. English, Spanish or any other language known only to humans, there are languages between species!
@@paulstokes1831With the critters, a spirit of love and gentle patience will very likely bring down most any barrier, heal most any wound, physical or otherwise.
Once opened soak foot each day for 20 minutes in a big bucket of warm water and Epsom salt. Dry it spray inside and out with iodine then rewrap it. Give pain Meds if necessary. Good Luck.
I used to have issues like this with my animals. I now give only 2 hrs early morning in pasture as long as the overnight temp was over 40 degrees, year round pellets that are super low sugar for special care of animals prone to laminitis and straight orchard grass hay, no corn no alfalfa, no carrots, no sugar or molasses etc. I haven’t had a problem now for many years. I also pick out her feet nearly every day, keep the manure clean every day and keep her trimmed and balanced so all the weight isn’t all on one side.
This was incredibly interesting and informative. I pray now that seeing you scraped all the bad stuff away and got the abscess to drain, and hopefully, you will treat the horse with antibiotics the horse will heal. Will the horses hoof grow back, or will you be making something special to put on his hoof. The horse must really like you and trust you because he was very well behaved during all that pain. Thank you for taking such great care of this lovely horse. 🐎
This horse was a real champ, it must’ve felt so much better as soon as the abscess started draining. This was a very interesting video, your client was so cooperative. Hope it heals soon.
It's amazing how stoic animals are and put up with much more pain then we humans would. I'm glad the gentleman was helping her to get relief, she was so good natured and probably happy to finally get some relief. I just worry about the flies. What if they lay eggs in the wound and botfly larvae grow in there? Hopefully. the antibiotics will help her to heal completely. It's good to see someone taking good care of their animals. I wish every poor animal out there would get the care it needs.
You are a gift from God to horses. A good Ferrier is worth you weight in gold. I used to soak my horse’s hooves in apple cider vinegar and salt. It always helped.
Excellent video and treatment for such an abcess. I have dealt with a few and they are tricky. The most recent one I worked on was with shetland pony that has had acute laminitis for years. It was the dead of winter here in NY so it was surprising she got an abcess then. I opened it so it would drain. That helped but it took quite a long time founder to get back to normal. I should have had the owners soak her. It's difficult to soak when it is very cold though. Mare is doing well today. I greatly appreciate your videos voiced in English. Please do your old videos over in English. You have many interesting cases. Also, I was wondering about those tiny flies. We have something similar but only for a few weeks in the spring. Those tiny flies you have, do they go away? They seem like a nuisance. Also, any follow up on this horse ? Hope you video a follow up nup. Thanks again.
Anything which breaks skin or punctures the hoof can trigger an abscess. They can also be caused by any injury to the hoof such as a bruise inside (underneath) the hoof.
handsome expert guy comes to the rescue of mare again. She seems very comfortable with him because he is confident & so competent. love these men who help animals.
oh my word this mare isnt being held she is just standing there what a good ground mannered girl ! you know this has to hurt but she knows somehow this is going to make her feel better ! someone has taken allot of love and kindness with her ..
G’day and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 I would have used a sedative she is in a great deal of pain if part of the problem : being the pressure of puss. Have you thought of drilling to alleviate that pain ? just a thought any way interesting video you can tell you have a big heart for these beautiful animals. Regards John
I'm not really impressed with the way this farrier went about this one bit. I think there are way better methods used in this day and age. It's like he doesn't have all of the proper equipment to treat this animal. I'm not liking this video.
Looks like the infection started around the trauma, around the medial aspect of the long pastern bone down to the coronary line of the hoof. Also, given the state of the other hooves, it's been a long time, I think, since a farrier had worked on them. Depending where this was, some areas require a veterinarian to provide pain anesthetic and/or antibiotics. When I had horses on my small 80+ acre ranch, I was able to buy antibiotics and anesthetic to take care of any injuries. I also had my veterinarian come by about every six months for check ups and my farrier came out around every 8 to 10 weeks. I'm feel bad that this horse has had to suffer with the abcess. The horse, otherwise looks in good condition. As a previous horse owner, it is the responsibility of the owner to check their horses daily for problems, not just trauma.
Brazil, the standard of living is very low, professional services are too expensive to be common and therefore few and far between. This horse was probably retired and left to pasture when it started limping. Note that they don't mention horseshoes.
I'm sort of freaking out. After watching GP Hoof Doctor and the Iowa Farrier School, I feel like I'm watching primitive medicine. The gentleman certainly knows his trade but I'm frustrated that he doesn't seem to have the tools or even any spray-on antiseptic or antibacterial like we can get in the CVS. Even years ago when we had our horses, we always had Gentian Violet for wounds in our tack chests. Maybe the bucket has some kind of antibacterial in it. God bless him and God bless this sweet horse. 🙏
I am dumbfounded that you Americans think everything is that simple and that everywhere is like America or Scotland! This is Brazil, this type of tools and equipment can cost many thousands of dollars with import fees! How could a trimmer that earns an average of 16 dollars per trimmed animal be able to afford such equipment? In addition to the fact that the sale of antiseptics, antibiotics and anesthetics for animals in Brazil is strictly controlled, only registered veterinarians are allowed to buy and apply these drugs! In case you didn't know, this type of wound is treated with hydrogen peroxide and iodine, in the other videos this is shown and the results are excellent!
@@lucasreinol923 Don't know what they use in Brazil, but I'd be using a hot salt water poultice on a foot injury like that, held on with a plastic carrier bag and held on with duct tape. Cheap as chips, and as effective as anything a vet can provide, unless antibiotics are needed (rare, for a hoof abscess). Mind you, I'd rather not have half the hoof dug out like that. A farrier did something similar to one of my horses when he had an abscess, and problems kept recurring for months after until the hoof wall finally grew down.
I don't know much about horses, but can they feel the digging into their hoof when he's doing this? It doesn't look like she really was in any pain once the infection (I assume that's what this is, playing the video without sound at the moment) was opened and cleaned out. Does an injury (?) Like this take a long time to heal? That void looks pretty severe/deep.
It's weird to see that a guy that been dealing with horses for possibly decades haven't thought to already have a horse foot stand for the horse to rest his hoof on for hoof maintenance instead of all that strenuous balancing this guy is going through like a balancing act for both him and the horse. You would think he would have something steady for the horse to rest his foot, so that he doesn't accidentally cut the horse from all that balancing and moving from doing surgery on a tight rope.
You must be kidding! It is not USA, England or Italy, it is BRAZIL! This type of equipment can cost up to a million dollars with import fees! Do you really think that a trimmer that receives 16 dollars per trimmed animal would have any conditions to buy such equipment? Gimme a break!
@@lucasreinol923 Dude, use your brain. That guy could build a wooden hoof supporter for free with a few pieces of wood and some cloth. Or even use a chair or stool and cloth that will also work perfectly. So many different things he could use instead of struggling like he has no solution for a process he probably been doing for decades.
@@lucasreinol923 You should be smart enough to figure out how to create a simple hoof rest for horses out of pieces of wood and cloth instead of felling like you're not smart enough like this dude here on this video. But i guess you're not good at figuring simple things out and in your area people are not as smart as the rest of the world. The hoof trimmer supposed to be as smart as the rest of us who would've already built a hoof stand for horses to rest their hoofs on, so that we don't attempt to trim the horse's hoof with a sharp knife while appearing to be wiggling on a tight rope.
Hola Renato te hablo desde Venezuela Dios te bendiga y te guarde por tan hermosa labor pero por favor hijito usa guantes tus manos son muy valiosas y tú
A bucket of warm water with Epsom salts would be the best thing for this horse right now. The salts will draw out more of the infection and help it heal at the coronet band. Administer some pain meds and antibiotics. I had a gray horse that always had an abcess. I could tell when one was coming on and would start with the cleaning and soaking as soon as I noticed. Vet would swing by with pain meds and antibiotics. Horse was good until the next time.
Oh my God, I hope the owner gets a REAL farrier and a VETERINARIAN to check this horse! Did it live? This guy has little, if any, training and inadequate tools. This is terrifying to watch! Please update!! Did this horse live??!??
@@ynotaz No I meant not the United States or Europe. Also not everyone can afford a veterinarians and the conditions at some commercial farms and ranches would shock you.
The ignorance in your comment as well as some of the replies is astounding!! Tell us you have zero knowledge about animals without telling us you have zero knowledge.
Maybe Maybe not but at least he did something and at the time there was possibly nobody else available to do that so even though he doesn't look like he knows what he's doing at least he did something and by doing that took the pain away from the horse That's better than nothing
Ouch poor horse with a hood abscess and the farrier is helping and treating the horse so that the horse can get relief after opening it up etc How long does it take a horse to fully recover from this really bad abscess?Thank you farrier for treating this horse's abscessed hoof 1 year ago
Do you have any idea what may have caused this terrible injury? I noticed that you only opened the damage to provide drainage but didn’t wash off with any kind of disinfectant and ended the video, did you later apply any medication to kill the bacteria within the infected area? After all just opening it to air and not killing the bacteria is like taking a shower and then wearing dirty underwear.
Bonjour, je suis en colère contre les gens qui MALTRAITENT les animaux ! Ce pauvre cheval ne mérite pas d'avoir ses sabots couverts d'abcès ! Les personnes responsables de la maltraitance sur les animaux sont coupables de barbarie et méritent LA PRISON !!!!!! Quant à vous, monsieur le maréchal Ferrand, vous faites un travail extraordinaire en aidant, en soignant ces pauvres animaux. Bravo pour l'aide que vous apportez pour ces animaux !!! Un grand merci. Moïse de France.
The vet would tell the person to call a farrier to trim this hoof vets don’t do it. And it hurts but the second that abscess is released the animal has immediate relief
Farrier needs a good hoof stand to support the hoof well, and prevent hoof movement. Needs to squirt with anti biotic too while cleaning the hole. Numbing liquid would help too.!
What do you mean by "a good hoof stand?" Equine farriers trim hooves while holding them. After they finish trimming, when they are neatening up with the rasp (or after they finish shoeing and are clinching the nails and neatening up) they do set the hoof on a tripod like stand but prior to that it is unnecessary.
The horse probably just came up lame. You can feed a horse at night, go out to feed in the morning, and they can be as lame as that from an abscess. A horse I used to have had some conformation flaws that predisposed him to abscesses in his soles. They would come on literally overnight or while I was at work during the day. Horses go from sound to three legged lame, looking like they've broken their leg in a matter of hours. It can be terrifying to new horse owners because of that. The good news is, once you open it up, the horse has immediate relief. They can be an issue if they are in a place where they can't be opened up. In that case, sometimes you have to soak the hood and use a drawing salve and that can take a few days. When that would happen with my old guy, I would soak his foot in warm epsom salt water. Then I would put sugar and iodine in a baby diaper and make sure it covered the area where the abscess should be coming to drain. I would secure the diaper around the hoof and then wrap duct tape until the whole hood was wearing a duct tape boot. (Literally rinse, soak, repeat.) Anyway, abscesses are one of those things that 99% of the time, you don't know your horse has one brewing until your horse has one. 😕
Good chance this is in another country or someones home in the middle of no where without the means, also animals like this down always show signs until its infected.
You need one of those stands for her to rest her foot on while you're doing that, and it would be great if you could give her some sort of numbing stuff but I don't think they do that for horses and cows I hope he treats that with antibiotic stuff and make sure that the flies stay off of it.
No amount of positive comments hes speaking will ever make this poor mares neglected condition be ok. It makes me sick & very angry that she hasnt been looked at or touched in FOREVER! I will never understand how people can be so cruel & stupid. Why do they have this horse? Why are they getting her back? I can't watch these kinds of videos anymore. So wrong.
Agree 100% ! This poor horse was limping terribly! Yes animals hide their pain, but when you see how badly this horse was limping it’s definitely a sign that your priority is to tend to that horse!! It’s cruel to see how neglected and bad it’s hoof looked like. You don’t have to be a horse expert, or a vet to know something is wrong with this poor horse’s hoof!
Having grown up on a farm in Kentucky and living around quite a few extremely big horse farms I despise horse people I can't stand horse people not to mention the fact I don't like horses very much either but that's not the horses fault
@@toddfenley9179well I’m sorry you feel that way! They probably despise you too. Maybe you should go to a therapist to find out where your hatefulness & anger is coming from❤️
@@jennymendenhall10 the animal can't speak or do for itself it has to be done by us there is no excuse for that people who disrespect nature have a problem
It's not neglect it's from an injury . A horse can injure the tissues inside the hoof capsule and it may not seem to bad at first. But if it for some reason it abscess it can literally get this bad in a day or two, and farriers in many places aren't that common and many times the animals and owners are at the mercy of the availability of the farriers and vets in their area.
Why do you don´t do a correct hoof trim? This one side with the abscess is too high, there is to much pressure and in generell the hoof shape is not good. Correct trimming would help the horse a lot.
@@RobHasman Thank you for your teaching, but if you have some idea about hooves, you can see that you could trim the hooves better than you see here in the video.
You really should have used hoof testers before just knifing in there, not to mention some form of iodine or antibacterial solution once you cleaned it out.
Buenas tardes a la final no tienen un instrumento más eficaz que pueda ayudar al caballo para curarle el absceso que tiene en el casco q lo tiene inflamado y no puede afincar la pata 😢
Begs the question how this terrible infection started in the first place? As I worked in many stables over many years where horses had there hooves checked weekly and not when the animal became lam!!! One can only conclude in my opinion its down to neglect!!! 😢
What a well behaved, lovely horse!
They are so smart.She pulls to let him know that hurts a little but then also Recognizes that He is helping her
Thank you for your work and the humble way in which you carry it out to help those who cannot talk. God bless you.
Interesting watching her interact. It hurts but she gives back the hoof every time. She trusts him to fix it
She's being so nice and patient. Hope she fully recovers soon.
It's like... even though she's in pain, she knows they're trying to help her ❤️
You have to keep the horse standing while you do this

@@lucasreinol923 You should be smart enough to figure out how to create a simple hoof rest for horses out of pieces of wood and cloth instead of felling like you're not smart enough like this dude here on this video. But i guess you're not good at figuring simple things out and in your area people are not as smart as the rest of the world. The hoof trimmer supposed to be as smart as the rest of us who would've already built a hoof stand for horses to rest their hoofs on, so that we don't attempt to trim the horse's hoof with a sharp knife while appearing to be wiggling on a tight rope.
Some farriers prefer to not use them, or so I've heard them say. They say they can read the horse better and their back is use to it. Go figure.
I think she knows that you are trying to help her. Every time she put her foot right back up for you great job
At around 10:13, you can tell the horse has figured out that the farrier is doing good by them.
Hola Renato te hablo desde Venezuela Dios te bendiga y te guarde por tan hermosa labor pero por favor hijito usa guantes tus manos son muy valiosas y tú
A bucket of warm water with Epsom salts would be the best thing for this horse right now. The salts will draw out more of the infection and help it heal at the coronet band. Administer some pain meds and antibiotics.
I had a gray horse that always had an abcess. I could tell when one was coming on and would start with the cleaning and soaking as soon as I noticed. Vet would swing by with pain meds and antibiotics. Horse was good until the next time.
Cant you clean it with some spray?
@poppypottschannel Whats wrong with me? Whats wrong with you?
Omg you poor sweetheart. I hope she gets antibiotics and pain relief. She's so good. I hope you recover quickly.
Interesting! Is there any kind of spray-on pain killers for horses?
Oh my God, I hope the owner gets a REAL farrier and a VETERINARIAN to check this horse! Did it live? This guy has little, if any, training and inadequate tools. This is terrifying to watch! Please update!! Did this horse live??!??
Are you Kidding me? This is Brazil Not Europe or the US. Such luxuries are not affordable. This is how it is done in the rest of the world.
I agree! This guy is scary. Poor horse!
@texasforever7887 You mean the under developed nations! Brasil has to have veterinarians. Don't they export a lot of beef?
@@ynotaz No I meant not the United States or Europe. Also not everyone can afford a veterinarians and the conditions at some commercial farms and ranches would shock you.
The ignorance in your comment as well as some of the replies is astounding!! Tell us you have zero knowledge about animals without telling us you have zero knowledge.
I was just thinking that foot needed to be soaked!!
Amazing horse she has trust in her farrier ❤
Thank you for helping her ❤
Hard to see her pain but watched every minute to know she was better 😂
He obviously doesn't know what hes doing.. this is sad. How hes not putting any disinfectant on it
Maybe Maybe not but at least he did something and at the time there was possibly nobody else available to do that so even though he doesn't look like he knows what he's doing at least he did something and by doing that took the pain away from the horse That's better than nothing
Ouch poor horse with a hood abscess and the farrier is helping and treating the horse so that the horse can get relief after opening it up etc How long does it take a horse to fully recover from this really bad abscess?Thank you farrier for treating this horse's abscessed hoof 1 year ago
Do you have any idea what may have caused this terrible injury?
I noticed that you only opened the damage to provide drainage but didn’t wash off with any kind of disinfectant and ended the video, did you later apply any medication to kill the bacteria within the infected area? After all just opening it to air and not killing the bacteria is like taking a shower and then wearing dirty underwear.
Bonjour, je suis en colère contre les gens qui MALTRAITENT les animaux ! Ce pauvre cheval ne mérite pas d'avoir ses sabots couverts d'abcès !
Les personnes responsables de la maltraitance sur les animaux sont coupables de barbarie et méritent LA PRISON !!!!!!
Quant à vous, monsieur le maréchal Ferrand, vous faites un travail extraordinaire en aidant, en soignant ces pauvres animaux.
Bravo pour l'aide que vous apportez pour ces animaux !!!
Un grand merci.

I have seen white, yellow and red and white puss (blood and puss mixed) come out of abscess but this is the first time I’ve seen blue.
Why wasn't there pain meds on board? Where's the vet? It's obvious it's very painful smh
Lol because it's not that serious yet you hypochondriac
The vet would tell the person to call a farrier to trim this hoof vets don’t do it. And it hurts but the second that abscess is released the animal has immediate relief
Farrier needs a good hoof stand to support the hoof well, and prevent hoof movement. Needs to squirt with anti biotic too while cleaning the hole. Numbing liquid would help too.!
What do you mean by "a good hoof stand?" Equine farriers trim hooves while holding them. After they finish trimming, when they are neatening up with the rasp (or after they finish shoeing and are clinching the nails and neatening up) they do set the hoof on a tripod like stand but prior to that it is unnecessary.
😞😲Thanks for making her super sore Hoof feel and be tons better.🙂 hoof
Why wasn't this horse cared for when she first became lame, poor horse.
A horse can become this lame in hours,
The horse probably just came up lame. You can feed a horse at night, go out to feed in the morning, and they can be as lame as that from an abscess. A horse I used to have had some conformation flaws that predisposed him to abscesses in his soles. They would come on literally overnight or while I was at work during the day. Horses go from sound to three legged lame, looking like they've broken their leg in a matter of hours. It can be terrifying to new horse owners because of that. The good news is, once you open it up, the horse has immediate relief. They can be an issue if they are in a place where they can't be opened up. In that case, sometimes you have to soak the hood and use a drawing salve and that can take a few days. When that would happen with my old guy, I would soak his foot in warm epsom salt water. Then I would put sugar and iodine in a baby diaper and make sure it covered the area where the abscess should be coming to drain. I would secure the diaper around the hoof and then wrap duct tape until the whole hood was wearing a duct tape boot. (Literally rinse, soak, repeat.) Anyway, abscesses are one of those things that 99% of the time, you don't know your horse has one brewing until your horse has one. 😕
Sometimes abscesses have no symptoms until "ripe". The horse doesn't look otherwise neglected
Good chance this is in another country or someones home in the middle of no where without the means, also animals like this down always show signs until its infected.
oh, that poor horse. so glad you could help her 😢🐴
4:12 10/24 thank you for everything you do.
How much experience do you have?
So glad you could help her
You need one of those stands for her to rest her foot on while you're doing that, and it would be great if you could give her some sort of numbing stuff but I don't think they do that for horses and cows
I hope he treats that with antibiotic stuff and make sure that the flies stay off of it.
Man !! Those are some sharp tools !!!!😮😮😮😮
Suvhh a well behaved horse.And you were good with her/him.
Hi from Sydney
What an amazingly nice and patient girl.
But what about spraying something (disinfectant that repels BUGS off her) on to it..?
No amount of positive comments hes speaking will ever make this poor mares neglected condition be ok. It makes me sick & very angry that she hasnt been looked at or touched in FOREVER! I will never understand how people can be so cruel & stupid. Why do they have this horse? Why are they getting her back? I can't watch these kinds of videos anymore. So wrong.
Agree 100% ! This poor horse was limping terribly! Yes animals hide their pain, but when you see how badly this horse was limping it’s definitely a sign that your priority is to tend to that horse!! It’s cruel to see how neglected and bad it’s hoof looked like. You don’t have to be a horse expert, or a vet to know something is wrong with this poor horse’s hoof!
Having grown up on a farm in Kentucky and living around quite a few extremely big horse farms I despise horse people I can't stand horse people not to mention the fact I don't like horses very much either but that's not the horses fault
@@toddfenley9179well I’m sorry you feel that way! They probably despise you too. Maybe you should go to a therapist to find out where your hatefulness & anger is coming from❤️
@@jennymendenhall10 the animal can't speak or do for itself it has to be done by us there is no excuse for that people who disrespect nature have a problem
It's not neglect it's from an injury . A horse can injure the tissues inside the hoof capsule and it may not seem to bad at first. But if it for some reason it abscess it can literally get this bad in a day or two, and farriers in many places aren't that common and many times the animals and owners are at the mercy of the availability of the farriers and vets in their area.
Couldn't the abscess be lanced with a thick hypodermic needle above the hoof line to drain it then treat with antibiotics?
Why do you don´t do a correct hoof trim? This one side with the abscess is too high, there is to much pressure and in generell the hoof shape is not good.
Correct trimming would help the horse a lot.
Pretty sure hes more of an expert here than you Mr random
@@RobHasman Thank you for your teaching, but if you have some idea about hooves, you can see that you could trim the hooves better than you see here in the video.
Hi, very interest Ing, but can you after the time how the "huf" now looks, pls
❤ Thx
She's such a good girl. 😊
Gloves and eye protection?
Do you have to keep it in a dry environment
You really should have used hoof testers before just knifing in there, not to mention some form of iodine or antibacterial solution once you cleaned it out.
Pretty sure this guy has more expertise than you
@@RobHasman I'm pretty sure he's not as good as you think he is.
😊Thank you for helping her. Sorry some people are so rude in their comments
Use a suction pump to pull those abcess out. 😊 I'm glad the horse feels better. Good job.
OMG MADISON!!!! IS ME DAISJA❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Cant imagine how sore she felt, yes instant relief when the pressure subsides. Looking for the follow up video? Did he get it draining out the top?
do you use lidocaine?
very cool to see the moment the animal knows that man is there to help and willingly lifts up his leg again.
Poor baby😢 i can only imagine how much thatbhurt. Thankyou for helping❤
Buenas tardes a la final no tienen un instrumento más eficaz que pueda ayudar al caballo para curarle el absceso que tiene en el casco q lo tiene inflamado y no puede afincar la pata 😢
Why did the owner let the hoof get so bad? An abscess grows slowly. I wonder how long the horse has been in pain.
Surprised you don’t have a bench (tree trunk) to rest the hoof on while you work..
I’m seeing a lot of animals with abscess in their feet does this happen often or is this normal
You must have a very strong back. It looks excruciatingly painful
Begs the question how this terrible infection started in the first place? As I worked in many stables over many years where horses had there hooves checked weekly and not when the animal became lam!!! One can only conclude in my opinion its down to neglect!!! 😢
Why did the owner wait so long to have this treated? This wound did not 'just' happen 48 hours ago!
When do we get to see the progress please?
What is the cause?
