Today, i decided to give Spice some pampering. I soaked her hoof in some salt water to help cleanse the infected area which she seemed to love and i gave her a really nice groom which i haven't done in ages. Her mane and tail are beginning to grow out nicely (after being pulled by the previous owner) and her hoof although still warm seems to be a lot better, i.e she is no longer in anyway lame but it is undoubtedly still weak and tender in comparison to the other hooves. I really hope i can long rein her tomorrow but until this heat subsides i will not be confident that it is healthy enough. I also took the time to take some photos which was nice.
