Horse's blood is a really vivid red don't you think?  Yes it is actually! & I noticed yesterday ... it also seems to clot differently to humans & stays a real startling red a lot longer. As i understand it, its because horse's blood is more oxygenated then humans. Just looked at that pic again, sorry if anyone found it not their cup of tea & would have prefered a gore warning. I didnt even think about that ... its just kind of second nature to me now

poor lad!, but it does certainly look less swollen  Strange how you can't find anything...It's a very long, (and unrealisitic, really) shot, but are you sure it wasn't a person? It might have even been by accident

It's a very long, (and unrealisitic, really) shot, but are you sure it wasn't a person? It might have even been by accident Interesting idea. There have been a few weird things happen in Jersey from time to time & infact Bob did have his moustache shaved off overnight (i kid you not!) at the same yard. But ... Landy's probably the least likely of the other two he was in with to be likely to get anywhere near a stranger that doesnt deal with him day in & day out, he's a very very cautious animal. Westie however is anyones friend & would be in there nudging away. I think its more along the lines of a sharp bit of wood, nail or something in the hedgerows we cant see. It was pretty traumatising for him however he did it as he went into shock when we brought him into the yard to treat him, poor lad. Definately on the mend today though ... the rain has been a god send in some ways today as its cleaned his nose beautifully & kept the flies away & he's quite happy now the swellings gone down a lot.

Poor boy, sometimes I wonder how on earth they do these things, like when Charlie gashed his armpit.
Hope he's well on the way to recovery, it looks a fairly clean wound all things considered.
Give him a good cuddle!

Bless him it did look horrible, but looks really good with the stiches in and hopefully it won't scar too much
