Vet visit, part the next

Even though Rajiyyah’s leg has been healing well, she has been doing something to it every night. Finding dried blood that has dripped half-way down a leg isn’t normal. It’s not oozing or seepage, it’s like she is re-damaging the leg every time she is in her stall. I don’t know what she is doing. One of the vet students suggested that maybe she has something still stuck in the cut that is preventing it from healing fully.

I am not sure what is going on. The vet is supposed to be back out today to see Rajiyyah. Some time this afternoon, not sure exactly when.

    Isis is thoroughly pissed at me. I’ve purchased a grazing muzzle for her to wear in hopes that it will reduce the amount of grass she is eating. She had it on for the first time on Saturday. She was not a happy camper. The grass in her diet paddock (dry lot) was so low…

    Isis had her first chiropractic adjustment tonight after several months without one. Around Thanksgiving she was out in the pasture with two other horses to see if she could be introduced into another herd. Things were fine until we added another mare — then the gelding and Isis and words. She kicked him in the…
