Jenn -- I am so very sorry about Rusty. What a nasty cut!!!! It looks like barbed wire. We don't have any barbed wire fences, but I have seen plenty of b/w cuts on horses....
When the stitches are out and the incision has closed up, the emu oil will help to keep scarring down

. I am going to send you something that will help to keep the bandage on. Your package is going out today so you will have it soon.
