Sort of a short visit today 2 hours, I needed to do the supplemetns, I had just gotten a new bag of magnesium for him. There were 2 bags of supplemennts left. I was able to fill out 12 ore for a total of 14 or 2 week worth.
I went up to the paddock took snacks, crop bandana and some other items. He did ont rush to the gate, honestly I thought it was strange. I climbed over the fence,
Here Beau is lifting his leg for me to see that he cannot do his exercises that he is so proud to do. Im so proud of him communicating to me. Also hes in pain, he walked so nicely and patient. I didnt want to think that he was lame but I could see the difficulty he had trying to move sideways and not at all backwards but he tried.
Plus he is a great hoof picker upper. totally different than just a few weeks ago. Im so proud, yes I used treats but really its totally ok.
So cold, fed the kitties my wet food frozen, and they came running, so cute. I hope they know I love them and am worried for their safety, there are so many coyotes in the field.
Beau was happy but was dearling with his injured leg, I did not really know until we went to do his the sets of 10 backsteps exercises which hes so good at, and he did not want to back up the steps. Usually that is an ok thing I just waited. He was in pain.
I worked on his picking up his feet, hes so good at that now. Hes trying alot. I just tap his upper leg 2 times andn he lifts his hoof but this time it was different. I liftred his first one, so beautiful then the other front hoof, no problem then the back one on the left and it was easy to lift because it was already up, then when went over to the right hoof, he lefted the left. I saw that his back left was very sort. He was feeling bad.
After that but then I took off his blanket, and brushed him out. He still seems like hes senstiive skin.
So cold, fed the kitties, the wet food was frozen solid,
Beau was sort of sad in the paddock, after I saw he was hurt, I brushed him and then changed his blanket to the warmer one. We were able to do the bandana trick. There was no problems at the gate, he was happy that I was bringing him in. His hoof was sore so he stayed on the softer ground.
happy but injured leg. I walked around the barn to the front to go in because Patty was working with Ah-Leah and then Sienna.
