That should make me very happy! But no...I spent the day worrying about my lame Rebel and as if that is not enough, this morning Buddy rolled in the deep snow and did something to his right front. Two gimpy horses and two gimpy owners. I have really reached my capacity.
Buddy and Rebel barely moved all day long.
Little Wonder joined me when I went out to take Rebel's temperature. It was still cold at that time so he wore his sweater.
This is the first day Sidney has wanted to go outside and he went straight to the barn.
Once it warmed up, LW was happy to be naked.
At 2pm we had an appointment to have our taxes done and for a change, we are getting a refund.
Earlier I had a conversation with my most knowledgeable horse pal and the farrier and decided to try another approach to treating Rebel's left front foot. It involved putting on a poultice/wrap and it took me forever as I have never used this method before.
Such a pain. Once the vet wrap was on I covered it with duct tape. It will have to come off again tomorrow when the farrier gets here. Don't know if either horse will able to be trimmed....and they need it. Nothing is easy lately.
I had to lead Rebel back to his stall....
and eventually Buddy showed up. The barn temperature was 30 degrees and they are no longer double blanketed.
Yep...Little Wonder joined me again. So did Sid.
Night all.
