Will's Foot continued

Just and update. The farrier has been and the hole in the sole of Wills foot has been cut out and the shoe put back on. He is 100% sound. The farrier said we had already done the hard yards with the poulticing (and the Davis Poultice Boot). We also used a Davis Barrier boot which is sort of like an Easy boot but much easier to use (also more reasonably priced!). Once the need for poulticing was gone, the vet suggested keeping it wrapped or covered, so we used vetwrap and then put on the barrier boot. It was great as he was able to play and canter around as he usually does and the barrier boot is more hardy than the poultice boot. All in all a great result for our horse!
