It never ceases to amaze me how horses can get over leg issues with the correct time off and good shoeing through time. We had a baby way back when break her front leg. It was bad- snapped the foreleg-but we set it and figured we'd use her as a brood mare. That's exactly what she became, but in hindsite she set up just fine and would have been a perfectly good riding horse too - the break was never noticable after about a year.<br /><br />Keep us updated and good luck!Danielle Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04637508490808890254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4772447720984602729.post-74878075016520051592010-08-06T10:18:25.490-05:002010-08-06T10:18:25.490-05:00Oh, I hope she heals right.

She'...I think you've made the right choice. She's not a riding horse yet anyway. She's got at least a year to heal and grow and then you can decide if you want to keep her for brood or riding, depending on her soundness. If she's able to walk, even a little, I'd be very optimistic for a full recovery.

I took a cat to the vet that broke its leg once, and was surprised to be told to just leave the cat alone and the leg will heal on its own. The problem there was that we had coyotes and this was a wild, outdoor cat that didn't have a home. I wanted to spare it from being eaten, so I paid to put it to sleep. Luna will be safe from predators, though. I'd give her a chance too.Nuzzling Muzzleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649710635013663900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4772447720984602729.post-847854152022902912010-08-04T18:30:11.428-05:002010-08-04T18:30:11.428-05:00I am so sorry, I hope she heals quickly and doesn&...I am so sorry, I hope she heals quickly and doesn't have any problems once healed!!
