SHE FINE!!!!!! thank god!!!!!

the vet couldn't find anything wrong with her and i actually felt a bit silly cause it was like i had got the vet out for no reason, as far a she can figure she must of just knocked herself in the field while galloping about. we spoke to the guy who brought her in last night and he said that he hadn't noticed her being lame when he brought her in (she was when we got there) but they had been being total fannies when he tried to catch them charging about the place. which they seem to be doin all the time just now.

so she was fine to go out this morning she dragged me to the field with ease then as soon as i let her go went of like a bat out of hell, none the wiser for having looked sore last night. maybe i imagined it lol!!!

just out of interest for people who have horses who run about like idiots all day, do u ever use and sort of turnout boots on them?? as of yet i don't plan on getting any but i just never see anyone using them here.

Good news! My boy is a pr*t out in the field and plays all day so i always put him in over reach boots and brushing boots, wouldn't trust him without.

I use the equilibrium close contact chaps. They are a bit of a pain to get on and off though as there is so much velcro but they stay put and have some give so can be worn all day.
