I went to the barn at noon and Red was stretched out in his paddock - laying like an old lizzard sunning himself. He got up when I came into the paddock. I walked him out and over to the wash rack. I gave him his medication and groomed him. He was filthy. I sprayed some Show Sheen on him - now he smells like a show horse that rolled in old cheese - better but still a little ripe. I gave him his alfalfa and he was a happy camper.
I went back at 5:30 and he was steppin' out. He seems to feel better. I soaked his hoof. His "boot" was all tore up....Doc's look WAY better than mine but mine hold up!!! I put the ichthammol on and diapered/duct taped him up. I put him back in his paddock and hugged his neck for the 10th time.
He is my sweetheart...and the best birthday present a girl could give herself!
