[QUOTE="I luv herfrds, post: 708384, member: 5917"] Well an update. The snake bit horse is doing just fine. Acting like the crazy bronc he is. Cut horse has got a very long road ahead of him to heal up. Has been seen by 2 different vets and he is still slow to heal. Took him to the farrier to get his shoes changed and got a surprise. The cut went down the heel of his hoof through that part of the cornea band and just missed cutting into the frog. Shoer has advised me to change the treatment. Soak his hoof in warm water with epson salt for a half hour twice a day. Take a tooth brush and clean the cut running through the hoof and treat with hydrogen peroxide twice. take a 4x4 gauze pad and put nitropherizon on it and apply to complete wound. treat this way for a week. The following week treat the wound with Underwood wound treat and baking powder. Continue soaking hoof and keep the cut on the bottom as clean as possible. Repeat the first weeks treatment. He thinks it will take around 8 months for the cut in the hoof to heal. [/QUOTE]
