Vet visit, part 2 or 3 or something

The vet came out to x-ray Isis’ feet and make sure that her feet have fully recovered. I was so proud of my little mare. First she was examined for soundness. In the large ring, I freelunged her so she could move about and strut her stuff… She was so good. Perfect, really. One of those rare occassions where she did everything I asked as if she could read my mind. The vet students were most impressed.

She stood perfectly for the x-rays, and was quiet while everything was being done. Such a patient mare when things are being done with her.

Now we get to wait until the results are in from the x-rays…
