Maybe I should worry less when this is him this morning in over a foot of snow

Oh she’s so happy she adores the snow. They both do. Beats rain and mud for sure!

Regarding the "not locking his knee" my horse occasionally does this when he's feeling very chilled and not really paying attention. It's a bit alarming, he just buckles and has to catch himself! There's nothing wrong with him though - so I wouldn't completely panic, it could have less worrying causes than a relapse.

Thanks Widgeon that's kind! It was something he did a LOT in the early days of this then it stopped, so I was worried to see it back even a tiny bit. But it could be he's sore somewhere else or whatnot, and I certainly didn't see it today (I wonder if the snow actually improves his proprioception?)

Bog looks great and obviously feels pretty good too. The snow looks much nicer than our rain and mud

Best photos - lucky you and them! Bog looks very happy - I wouldn’t worry too much.

Thank you. I think leaving for a month and not seeing any day to day changes is probably going to be very good for me mentally!

Another who supports trying a different therapist; it makes such a difference to find the right person.
Although I would also suggest having that first photo as your phone screen saver. I don't know Pepper but that photo puts a smile on my face and peace in my heart (a friend has a Spaniel so I've seen how bouncing Spaniel ears are good for the soul)

Hehe. Maybe if he annoys me enough.

A thought has floated into my head this morning - is there such thing as acqua therapy/water treadmill in your world? Wondered if it might strengthen his leg muscles and tendons - or I might just be talking rubbish??

Would love a bit of snow for my 4 cockers, we have another storm here in Wales, had storm Ellen yesterday into early hours, then storm furgus rolls in and it’s 70 mph wind and horizontal rain again, but at least it’s blown all the leaves into a corner to pick up if it stops raining. Ever
my 4 say happy christmas to you

How did you get them all to sit still and not pull funny faces? It looks like a painting.

Great idea! I did think about it but the nearest one is a 3 hour round trip. Even if I wanted to it’s just not feasible towing up and down the mountain with any regularity at this time of year. He could go to a rehab place at some point that has one though.

Bog seemed great today and my friend was riding her Arab, I couldn’t resist just sitting on him for a second to see that view again. Walked for a couple of minutes and I couldn’t honestly feel anything different about it. However he’s still a whole heap of long reining and rehab before I’d think about properly riding him again, it’s still nice to just sit on him like that. My grin as he walks off from the mounting block! How I miss riding him.
It’s good to finish off the year like that before I leave Colorado for a month on Wednesday

Yay well done Michen, what lovely photos and fab to nearly finish the year with a big smile sitting on Boggle. Hope this takes some of your worries away

I used to be decisive, now I'm not so sure...
LOL, a few pages back, if we'd said you'd be sharing photos of you sneaking a ride on Boggle before the middle of December, you'd have said we were mad!
You both look very happy!!!

I love this Michen. Your smile when your with Bog is infectious. I’m so glad he’s lessened your worries about him before you leave for Christmas. The best early present
