Sorry to hear about Ras - echo what the others said. Especially about the tetanus unless he's had a fairly recent vaccine. The *antitoxin* gives immediate protection, then about 10 days later give the regular cdt (or tetanus toxoid by itself) shot for lasting (annual) protection.

Hope he heals up ok.

Got his leg wrapped up, Im really happy my brother was here. He has been in boy scouts for a long time and he had a lot of knowledge about different types of wounds, and how deep it would have to be in order for stitches. He also made sure the wrap went on with the right amount of pressure. Heres the nugget, he is mad at me but it had to be done. Dont worry the halter was just for handling him. We looked in his stall and the hallway and we don't understand how he got this cut. :barnie
My brother is running out for the TSC stuff.

So apparently a new law says our normal TSC cannot sell the stuff soo my brother is going out of state to get the stuff. It will be about 30-40 min drive.

Where would I need to give the dose? The vet showed me how to give buster a shot under his elbow but im not sure if that would work in this case.

Got it done, he was annoyed but it will help him.

I wanted to share pics of Rosie, her bag really filled up overnight.
