A positive update on the rescue mare

The mare somehow unwrapped her whole leg yesterday.

She must have done it the past night because it looked much dryer, and
frankly, it looked MUCH better. She was walking better and seemed happier.

I wasn't sure and still feel a bit uncertain, but I am leaving it upwrapped in that
area for now and seeing what takes place.

You can see above - the swelling in the leg is greatly reduced from how bad it was. You can see before photos on another blog on her. The one leg is closer to the camera than the other, so that makes it harder to tell than in person.

Here is the prolapse. First photos of it, I believe, but believe me, it looks so much better. . .long way to go still, but it looks better.

The wrap above it is for the old laceration that is healing well. It has a tendency when dry to start to form proud flesh, so it must stay wrapped for now. It looks like it is tight and making the area below swell, but it is actually VERY LOOSE. The swollen look is just from the prolapse you see.

No other hooves look like this. The abscesses are healing in the others. They seemed nearly healed in this one.

Maybe things do look "darkest before the dawn" in such cases as this

Looking a bit happier, No?
