Do you need veterinary attention for a wound on a horses leg?

Very hard question to answer. If you have to ask, then Yes you do need a vet.

Many small scrapes and cuts can be treated by a horse person, with knowledge.

Some injuries can be in an important spot or deeper, possible tendon issues.

Did the injury just happen, or has the horse been getting dirt and flies in an open wound for days or a week?....call the vet.

As a horse owner, when the Vet comes out, you get to help, so you do learn along the way.

But the horse may need stitches, antibiotics, etc. that the Vet has.

When riding a horse how do you pass another horse?

You pass another horse if there is another person riding a horse that is very close to you. If you pass that person you have passed that person already if the person passes you your question has been anwsered.

*You always want to pass a horse to the inside. If you are coming behind them, it is generally a good idea to give at least two horse spaces between the two of you, and let the rider know you are coming if they have not already heard you. If you are passing from opposite directions, let the oncoming rider know you are passing on the inside (assuming they are on the rail) and again give at least two horses space.

Exceptions are at shows if a horse has a red ribbon on its tail (means it kicks) and you want to give ample amount of room when passing.

You pass another horse and rider with "right shoulder to right shoulder". For example, if your on the right rein, then you should be on the inside. If you on the left rein, then you should pass on the outside.

Hope this answers your question (as well as the answer above ;D)
