Topic: Horses - Behavior Issues, Breaking and Training


Expert: Stallynrydr
Date: 8/10/2008
Subject: My horse

Question
My horse is a paint. I wanted to train her, but about 3 to 4 years ago she some how hurt her back ankle and it has been swollen ever since. My sister thinks its a swollen tenet, but I don't know. So please tell me why it is still swollen,or what is wrong with it, and if there is some way I can fix it.

Answer
I can not tell you what is wrong with your horse physically, I can not see the injury obviously. Please take your horse to a Veterinarian and ask to have X-rays done on the area in question... That will answer all your questions and possibly help this swelling go away with appropriate treatment.
Good luck, Stallynrydr
