First day on meds

Isis’ medicine arrived today via shipment. (I love it how a “morning” shipment arrives at 11:30 AM.) The medicine is an apple-flavored powder that can be fed in Isis’ grain: one scoop, once per day for 10 days. That’s it.

She ate her first dose in some beet pulp and licked the bucket clean. Seems like this is going to go very well for her eating the meds.

Good news for Isis. Unfortunately, Kasane has broken out in hives from something in her pasture. Several other horses are also having hives. We’re not sure from what exactly. I treated her bumps and scabs and then put her back out. Poor girl was very sore over her croup.

She is a rescue case and has not been handled much. She knew how to lead and not much else. It was amazing watching…

This will be a new adventure for both of us….
