so tomorrow my birthday, it will be the first birthday in the 3 years of owning chance i would be able to ride him
the first year i fell in work broke my elbow! and was in plaster
second birthday he wa son box rest for ligament damage
and here we are on third, a friend has said she would nanny us on a nice quiet hack though the quiet lanes...
Chance had other ideas!!! up until his ligament damage he has been bare foot (he had the nick name of cinder-cob when i got him)
however after 3 different vets 2 farriers and stupid amount of xrays and scans it was agree Christmas time ish he would go back to work (SLOWLY!) but has to wear heart bar shoes for a year to give heal lift and help the ligament return/retract (this was my understanding any way)
sooooo just had a phone call from the yard staff 30 mins before i close for the day saying he has pinged both shoes of! and they are so twisted they are pretty much useless thanks got that chance... no birthday ride then?!

3rd times the charm as they say! Now at least you know next years birthday is for certain ?

Can you ride a pals horse…just to get that ride in on your birthday? Not the same I know, but better than frowning at your own horse on your birthday!
Whatever you end up doing, i hope you have a nice day ?
