Today I got a phone call from a friend from the stables beginning with "Marta, don't panic but...". At that point I knew something was wrong with Juliano. Justyna said that Juliano's lower leg was covered with blood and she thinks its serious and we might have to call the vet.
I got to the yard and yes, the leg was not looking good. J had a large v-shaped cut on his front knee. I called my friend vet (Anna) and went with to hose J's leg of. When Anna got there she decided that Juliano will need stitches. We managed to survive the whole procedure but now he's got 7 stitches and is on box rest for 10 days.
I don't know how we will survive 10 days without paddock :(

About Us
Juliano - 18 year old off track thoroughbred.
Horsenality: left brain extrovert
Juliano is a very dominant and playful little gelding, “Master of Disaster” called by some. His spirit level is very high, always alert, easily bored. He acts like stable royalty both around horses and humans. Though he was gelded at the age of 8 he still thinks he is a stallion. “Crazy ideas and won't take No for an answer” that's his motto.
Marta – graphic designer, IT graduate, master thesis on equine iridology and horses health. In 2006 I have qualified as an Equine Iridologist with Ellen Collinson (Equine Iridologist & Herbalist from UK).
I have started riding at the age of 12. After a long break from riding and being around horses I was asked to look after Juliano as a favour. After few months I knew he is “the one”.
