I just took my bull to the vet because he was limping. The vet said that the insides of his front hooves were cracked and mud had packed in the cracks causing an infection. He cleaned him out and packed with antiobiotic cream and wrapped it up and gave antiobiotic pills. The vet said that it was genetic and would not ever totally heal and the bull would always limp. He said the best thing to do would be to sell him. I am by no means a vet but this seems sort of drastic to me. I have had the bull for 3 years and this is the first time he has ever limped. If it was a genetic problem why is it just showing now that he is almost 5 years old? How do you know that it will keep happening over and over like the vet said? Has anyone had anything like this happen before?
Thanks!
