The vet has advised me to lunge my horse in a pessoa for 6 weeks to develop his back muscles. Nearly 3 weeks in and he looks fantastic already and is able to bend and stretch much better.
I was looking at him today feeling really pleased with myself when I realised that in 3 weeks time when hopefully he can be ridden, I will have 500kg of fit, well muscled horse who won't have been sat on for 6 weeks and hasn't had a good blast for 3 months since we started having problems (and boy does he like a good blast!).
I know he'll come back into ridden work gently but at some point I will have to put his feet on grass - think I'll start stocking up on the superglue!!!
