A longtime client contacted us after she noticed a right front lameness in the lower limb (and likely the hoof) in her 15 year old Percheron gelding. He was first evaluated by Dr Seth Carwile who took care of the immediate needs then sent the case on to Dr Eduardo De La Cruz as he knows this patient well and has a special interest and depth of knowledge in hoof issues.

The bacteria often enter through cracks in the hoof wall (due to poor hoof quality, inappropriate trimming, etc), separation in the white line (following a bout of laminitis or a hoof abscess), or due to other defects. White line doesnโ€™t generally cause pain initiallyโ€ฆ it begins to cause pain when the stability of the coffin bone is affected.
๐ŸŽDr De La Cruz and Dr Carwile together opened up the dorsal hoof wall and followed the track made by the bacteria until all of the affected tissue was removed. This was a large area of the hoof wall and required the use of a hoof cinch to help add stability to the hoof as a shoe would be too heavy for the weak hoof wall to handle. Following this surgery it was imperative that the hoof stay clean and dry at all times. The defect was treated regularly with a drying agent that also helped to kill off any bacteria that might try to form. Due to the sizable area that had to be debrided (removed) it will likely take 9-12 months for that area of hoof to full grow out.

The area was clipped, cleaned, and blocked for further exploration. A linear incision was made to allow access to remove the foreign body. The exploration revealed a piece of wood that measured 15cm long embedded in the wound!

๐Ÿš‘ ๐‘ป๐’“๐’†๐’‚๐’•๐’Ž๐’†๐’๐’•: After a thorough evaluation, the foreign body was removed, the wound was thoroughly lavaged and sutures were placed around the wound so that a tie over bandage could be held in place while allowing for proper drainage.

Bred by Chuck and Pam Stalley, Scout spent time at Miwok Stables in Marin County teaching people to ride before becoming an endurance horse with Dr. Fielding. In his second career he saved countless lives as a blood donor for horses that required emergency blood transfusions.

For those of you who have attended our annual health fair, Scout was also a great partner in teaching all of you about many things including how to see lameness in your horse and several other topics over the years.

In his final years he lost his vision and was taken care of by his friends in the pasture here at the hospital in Penryn.
