Well today we approach the test to see how Kevin is. He has had a month in the field on his own but next door to his mate, Ffin. He is a lot happier in himself, weight is back on, coat is shiny and he is feeling good. He has been on PSSM supplements for three weeks. (just in case) The other day he refused to be caught by my friend Helen, who had arrived to help me with some greasy patches on his pasterns. He played chase me, chase me, cantering 10 metre circles just out of her reach. She was bright red and very fed up when I arrived. Took two ciggies to calm her down ( ) Of course as he has put on condition I am doing a saddle check today, and tomorrow Helen will ride in the field and we will see if he is reactive on the left rein. Also dentist is coming to examine teeth, just in case. If no reaction, light hacking is on the cards, if he is reactive I will be scanning his lump. I will be scanning his lump anyhow but will wait until first vet bill is paid. Then I will xray hocks. In order to keep my Chiro vet out of any professional dilemmas, as he is being seen by her old boss and mentor, I rang a back lady who had been recommended to me, only to receive a really odd text diagnosing all his issues, which she had felt during our 30 sec conversation. I've cancelled the visit, all of the issues would have been spotted by anyone of the professionals that deal with my horses, the fact that my horse might have that many things wrong with him and ALL the professionals miss them all, struck me as a bit odd.
wish us luck
Just hoping Kev will be up for being a happy hack.
