    an x ray would tell you more... in regards of splinters or internal bleeds..

    if he´s walking ok.. putting weight and all.. maybe he is just sore.. very very sore.. horses can kick hard.. I´d look for bumps or fluid accumulation.. hopefully it was just a muscle thing and no bones or anything else involved..

    I suggest taking him for a check-up to be on the safe side and see if some mild pain meds will help him. Poor Taggart!

    Thanks everyone.
    He is putting a little weight on it. And I am keeping a close eye on it. Constantly running my hands over it, feeling for anything unusual or heat. My brother is also checking him regularly.
    If I do not see any improvement by Monday when I am back home I will take him in to my vet. If he seems worse tomorrow I may take him to the vet up here that my parents and brother use.
    I honestly think it is just a bad bruise, but just worry about other. He does seem to be acting "okay". He just seems to be mopey and sad.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I'm sorry to hear that this happened. I hope he'll recover quickly and that it's nothing serious. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts a being sent his way.
