Bo- Buds mudfever

When I saw Bo at Belfast his legs looked fine. According to his owner he had a tiny bit on both back legs. Was a bit shocked when Ipicked him up - it is pretty bad. Photos taken 19th April 09


Purple stuff is where I started to treated him and remembered the photos DUH. He went from bugger all to right up the leg in about 10 days. Some small patching appearing on his front legs too.
Have been treating it with Tetravet and Cliff McGrouthers Mud Fever cream - just washing the surface grim off each day. Will take more pics at the weekend. He was sound when I saw him at Belfast - as you can imagine he is somewhat less sound now.
Still very keen to go - gotta love a big horse that wants to play!! Had a nice session in the arena tonight. Working on basics like stop here, turn here and just relax big boy. Have a Bowen treatment booked for him on Sunday.
