She is definitely feeling better and is moving around a lot more. She even cantered along the fence when I brought her hay. My friend at the barn helped me take a video of Kasane at the walk and trot. She’s gimpy at the trot, especially when slowing down to the walk. She’s completely off of pain killers now.

Her concentration is much better after she exercises herself for a little while. So much improved overall. I wasn’t going to…

Our two Arabs (okay, he’s technically an Anglo-Arabian) have the Arab herd-brain: when one snorts the other automatically snorts and looks around. Even if nothing is there. It just takes a snort.

This is like Christmas and birthday and Big Happy Surprise rolled into one. It has been nerve wracking having her in a different state. I trust the…
It was raining when I went to the barn. No riding or working in the rings because of the mud so I spent the afternoon brushing and loving on Rajiyyah and Kasane. They are both shedding their summer coats. Rajiyyah kept nuzzling me over the top of the stall door. Both Kasane and Rajiyyah have…
Isis had her feet done tonight. We’re trying a new experiment — Easy Walkers on the front and aluminum Eventer shoes on the back. She has never had metal shoes on her back feet. It will be interesting to see how her feet respond to the different shoes. Related Images:
