Ring versus paddock with Isis

It’s Isis’ fifth day of treatment on Oroquin-10. Every day when I go out, I start looking for little improvements — and I’m often rewarded with a lot more than I expected.

When I had her in the paddock today, she seemed to be dragging her toes and not wanting to move on very much.

So, we went into the big ring, and she immediately started moving out a little more (and tried to get some grass).
