We had all kinds of different weather today. Sunshine, rain and dime sized hail with thunder.
Even tho Little Wonder slept through the night (me too) I knew something was wrong this morning. He had rice twice yesterday and some pumpkin...wanted nothing to eat when we got up. Took him outside and he just was not acting normal.
Called the vet and they fit me in at 10:20.
In the meantime, we walked around the yard. Gary's garlic has gotten so tall.
After being very quiet....as soon as I mentioned going in the car he was jumping all over the place.
He was very good for the vet and techs. Because his tummy has been bothering him and he has not been doing his regular business....he had an X-ray, which looked good except for some gas bubbles in his abdomen. So they gave him a shot to help that and after writing a big check
we were off to Glen Darrach farm to drop off some stuff for Andrea's horses and cats.
Seeing that she is his BFF, it made him very happy.
Her yearling, Hamisch is huge! I swear he is going to reach 17 hands.
We headed for home and I picked up some hamburger to mix with rice....his diet for 24 hours. I'm so glad he loves it. He was not his usual up in the car.
Got back to the farm by 12:30...fed him and then it was nap time.
The vet said walking would help, so eventually we went out to the back 40.
A few minutes after we got back in the yard, it was obvious that the shot was working. Phew. I can start gradually getting him back to his regular food after tomorrow. I hope he continues to feel better. We all need to catch a break around here.
Dinner....pasta with caramelized onions and fresh tomatoes with a salad.
Night all.

You most certainly need a break. It's a relief that LW is just suffering from gas. To him it's not a 'just'.
