Why does having a holiday and owning a horses have to be so damned di

[SAL66]

Well I have had my new horse just short of 8 weeks, everything fine, had already booked to go away and tbh was ready for it .

So left YO a detailed letter of what to do , just bring in at nights and what he is fed etc. I arrived back yesterday went straight to the yard and was met with a strange atmostphere.

The YO comes running out and tells me he has capped his hocks doesn't know how etc. , Aaaaaarh!

I am now waiting for the vet to come and check him over he hasn't been lame at all but I can see a small amount of swelling on his hock, I'm guessing it was done in the stable with a thin bed , but cannot prove it. He now has a huge thick bed.


I feel so pi33ed off and just hope that it will be something and nothing.

Would you be cross?

What's a holiday????

 

[BackInBlack]

no one can ever look after them as well as you can they... we only manage to get a few long weekends at center parcs, which i'm happy with-at least i'm not away from neds for too long.
hope your boy is ok

Its something you pay an arm and a leg for hoping for glorious sunshine, golden beaches and crystal blue water. Yes thats what I got but also thrown in for no extra cost was oversized beached whale tattoed to the hill, baring all in a thong which disappeared in to the folds, shouting "shut yer mouth " to her delightful kids. Oh to be british.

I know I am stereotyping but you could spot some of the Brits off a mile, beer cans at the ready, as pink as lobsters, mouthing off.

All this at a nice quiet family resort.

Thanks Tallyhohoho, No I undertand that no one looks after them as well as you would, I also appreciate that things happen.

I just think if only I hadn't gone away this might not have happened.

Thanks for the vibes hopefully he won't need them.

[SAL66]
