Well Rock was certainly much improved today but still raspy in his breathing (but the ventipulmin hasnt had a chance to work yet) and his colicky tummy is a LOT better so thats good.
He had physio today following his back injury which he did when he refused at speed XC the other day, and she said he was incredibly uneven in his back and very sore (which is what i thought hence why hes been in very gentle work) so she did some work and all sorted there.
She also showed me some exercise to do to help his breathing so thats really good and she recommened putting him on echinsea as it helped her friends horse that was athsmatic due to hayfever so went out and got some, will see if that helps!
Have also ordered that spray that you put on their bedding to help their breathing.
So all in all a postive day, got a plan laid in place with physio and vet talking together with me so thats good so hopefully he'll get sorted and this new routine will help him through the summer.
He can come back into gentle work on saturday then normal work on tuesday so fingers crossed so good vibes please people that this new routine will work!
