A few days ago Lady got tangled up on her zip line. By the time I got home her foot was swolled up to about 4" across. I got it untangled and rubbed on it to make sure the blood was flowing then walked her for about 45 minutes. The swelling has gone down all the way (had by that afternoon) and its always felt warm so I know there is blood flow. She is still using it, but is still trembling with both back legs(only one tangled) when standing. She isnt eating much Yall have seen the pics and know she likes food... She doesnt seem to be favoring it much at all. Ive been giving her some antibiotics we had from when Trixie fell out of the truck window. Yall think she will be good to go before long or what?

Just my opinion, for what it may be worth..... Is Lady's food out along that zip line? Could turn her off her food if the tangle up happened when she was going to eat.... As for the foot, that's going to be sore for awhile. Possible nerve damage could of happened. I'd just let her baby it some, and a daily massage on it might help.

Nah, I put her in the pen after I got her off the line.

She is doing good now. She laid up in the house for a week or so, then started coming out and acting like her normal self.
