once had a horse who absessed from a nail
puncture in the sole of his foot. the hole was pared out so it would
drain and then later developed proud flesh. our blacksmith used silver
nitrate on it and that was the end of the proud flesh. first time i'd ever heard
of it developing from the sole!!

Man does not have the only memory, The animals remember, The earth
remembers, The stones remember, If you know how to listen, they will tell
you many things.
I have never used silver nitrate to cauterize anything on a horse, but I
know they are still using it on people. It's pretty impressive to watch
at work, but there is no sensation.
