Boggle- USA bound!

Highs and lows of life. Just had Atlas checked, so sound. Looks great. Passed every neuro test except walking up and down a really, really steep hill. It’s not new, he’s always looked a bit odd but because he had always been cleared of being neuro and this hill is a different steep to anything he was moving on in Colorado, I put it down to a young baby horse just learning some balance. But as it’s not been improving I had the vet look.

Vet is very adamant that it’s more than that.

So I have some really tough decisions to make that I guess, I maybe always knew I’d have to. Ultimately while the vet said she’d be totally comfortable riding him on the flat, arena, flat trails etc I’m just not sure I could ever be ok with that.

Mainly is where on earth do I retire a young horse to that gets overweight so easily, while still ensuring he has tons of enrichment and a great life.

Always a rollercoaster eh!
 
Congratulations on the good news!

Have commented on your other thread re Atlas. Fingers crossed you can figure out a way forward that you & Atlas are both happy with but it is a difficult one & I don’t envy you trying to make that choice xxx
