Here are a couple of photos I took of my guys running around. Here is Henkell doing his best Arabian impression: And away we go. I caught Jake just as he was stepping into canter:

His leg is slowly filling up. Looks like it will heal up real well.

Just as a point of discussion. There was a horse at the ranch I worked on that got a nasty cut on the inside of an upper back leg. The vet told them to put the horse on the walker twice a day for an hour. It supposedly helped keep the leg from being permenently stiff from so much scar tissue. IOW, from the stretching that the exercise gave it helped spread the wound so that more scar tissue would have to grow for more elastisity....I just thought it interesting that you were advised to stall the horse. Don't you wish vets could get together on what the best treatment is:)
