Front hoof damage

My son is telling me that one of our yearling does have damaged her left hoof. He is saying that she sliced off the side of her hoof as if you sliced a piece off an apple off. He does not see any damage to the bottom of the hoof. She is not putting weight on it at all. With all the rain we have had I would say she has it coated in mud.


Question is what can be done with the hoof or just let it heal naturally. I will be home tomorrow and I can see for myself and administer what meds I think she would need.


Thanks for your time and any info offered.

Thanks Mike hope all is well up there. Will be checking all that out and of course one of my better does. Imagine that.
