Maybe A little. I get really cranky when I don't get my sugar though.

Thanks! She probably won't grow to be a large horse, most of the horses in the auction were around 15 hands. They were pretty stocky, though.

I have friends around Marfa, Texas, and the clinic that is described would rival one at a university. There has to be a large population to sustain what is described with horses worth millions of dollars. I can only think of one private clinic for horses that fits that description and its around Lexington, Ky. Veterinarians are businessmen and having equipment that is not used daily makes a poor return on an investment. Also, the clientele has to have the money and animals to support a veterinarian. For large equine surgery, there are in most cases three veterinarians involved so the practice gross has to be substantial. A state of the art small animal clinic is realistic but the large animal facility would be more believable if scaled down considerably. Also, most veterinarians that have that described equipment are specialists and focus upon one species the majority of the time.
Just my two cents worth.

Thanks, Beaker. Not only is she beautiful, she's pretty smart, too. She's leading (sort of), coming to me, letting me pet and scratch her, rub her face and ears, rub her tummy, etc. When I brought her home, I couldn't get near her.

She's settling in very nicely. Tomorrow we will work on picking up her feet and standing tied.

Thanks, Hair. She was the one filly that everyone was bidding on.
