I went to the barn to check on Biscuit and wash his saddle pad. Dang...the washing machine was not operational so I had to wash it by hand. I used some of the medicated shampoo on the spot where Biscuit's sore is. Ugh. I would love to get rid of his fungus amoungus permanently. I am going to start squirting vinegar on it - that should help keep it at bay. I scrubbed his pad front and back and hoses it down well to get all of the soap out of it. I left it hanging on the rail by the arena to drip dry.
I went down to the pasture and they were both way out there. I called to Biscuit and he started coming in. He stopped at the corral but decided to come on it! Woot! Good Biscuit. I did give him a little handful of sunflower seeds. I put a little tiny bit of the pink stuff on his sore. I did notice it was crusting over which is good. Sarge came in and I gave him some seeds and sprayed their legs with fly spray.
I asked Biscuit to come to me using the same hand motions I had in the arena and he came in closer to me. Good Boy!!! Hopefully one day he will stop walking away from me and I will stop needing to get Jamie to lock him in after feeding him. That will be a great day!
