Oh dear. I feel just awful for you and for Bob.... and what a tough injury to heal.

Is it immobilized or can he move and have it still heal?

It's bandaged, but other than that he's just loose in the barn. The vet said to remove the bandage tomorrow afternoon and leave it open with fly spray around it. Then just wash it off and spray it with Granulex twice a day. He gave him a big penicillin shot this evening, then he'll be on Tucoprim for a week or 10 days, but that's pretty much it. Oh, and he said to give him Pro-Bios every other day too. We'll see how he does with that and do something else if that doesn't get it. I did think to take a picture of it before I whisked him off to the vet. I'll post it tomorrow, but I'm sure it'll gross you out coz it's nasty looking.
