Aaahhhhh....around here, spring has sprung...

and yard dart season is upon us!

.

I have some 'good' news to report about the rescue horse, Twister.

At the field today, she's limping on her really bad long hoof.

The reason WHY is because her hooves are starting to 'self-trim'. They are breaking back to where they SHOULD be. Her limping is a sign that her circulation is getting back to normal and going through the healing process.

I'm NOT worrying about the limping, because when it is grain time, she RUNS like the wind with NO gimpiness.

(I'm NOT happy about having her this long, and not being able to 'tame her down' enough to trim her. If I had MY way, I'd have someone who could dart her with some good 'horse dope', so we could get the trimming done)

I'm thrilled that she is making a lot of progress in 'trusting' us. If anyone saw her when we first saved her, and then saw her today, they would cry. She can be the one who's furthest out back, she will hear you first when you call, and will ANSWER you, and THEN, she'll be the FIRST one to run like hell to come to you.
