Last year, when we got our tree, the first thing that my dog did was whiz on it. He thought he had died and gone to heaven because he finally got indoor plumbing! :-)
And by the way, I love that video. (And the "redneck drawl"!) ;-) Racking horses must be amazing to ride. It looks so comfortable.

And the "redneck drawl"!) Git dawg!
Us Easterners love that kind of talk.. :)
I was playing it again this morning at work, and someone wondered what the galloping was about.
To: FrogInABlender
Frog, I love your video......what kind of horse do you have? I'm sure you told me but I forget. I have a Rocky and couldn't ask for a smoother ride.
To: tuffydoodle
...Tuffy gets any bigger I'm gonna have to widen his stall door. Hey, wait 'til he can't even fit in a 2-horse trailer! I got that problem with Tennessee.

...Git dawg! LOL! It was more like "Leavat dawg a-lawn!" ;o)
Glad you liked the sound effects. I love the sound of a good even 4-beat gait. I thought it kind of appropriate that we were riding on an old railroad bed because the sound of their footfalls kinda reminds me of an old steam-powered train....chuga-chuga-chuga-chuga-chuga-chuga.

...what kind of horse do you have? They're Racking Horses. Some of the ones in the video were Walking Horses. In most cases I really can't tell the difference. It's just a different registry. Rockies move pretty much the same way too. They're just differentiated by their color. Same with Spotted Saddle Horses. I really don't care what kind they are, as long as they're smooth. Fast is a secondary consideration for me, but not nearly as important as smooth. And I'd rather breed for smoothness than shoe for it coz sooner or later shoeing for it will give your horse foot troubles.

It's looking really good! I'm so glad for you, because I know you were concerned. I trust he's moving just like he always did?

...I trust he's moving just like he always did? He seems to be. It's still swollen quite a bit in the tendons down the back of that leg and along the cannon bone under the wound in the front, but I think that'll eventually go down once the wound heals completely and what ever blood vessels that were damaged grow back. I've even had people tell me that the hair might actually grow back, but I'll believe it when I see it.

It is looking alot better. I think the hair will grow back, It has a round the edges where it's healed.
Are you still treating it anyway?
Becky
To: PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain; FrogInABlender
I'd be hopeful too, that the hair will grow back.

Children are amazing aren't they. Are you gonna get all of it? Does she have a rocking horse? Those don't eat as much. No, I'm not out of school yet. Finals are on the 7th. The winter semester starts on the 14th.

I quit hosing and debriding it about a month ago since it started getting a nice healthy scab and I've quit spraying it with the Granulex since it got nice and flat. Now I'm down to just putting triple antibiotic ointment on it once a day. One of the guys I was riding with this weekend swears by Preparation H for healing up and shrinking wounds. I may try that and see how it works.

Seriously though, I had heard that it was good to put under your eyes to reduce the puffiness.

...Are we ready for winter? Nooooooooo! It rained a little bit here yesterday but today is gorgeous, although a bit nippy with a temp of about 45 and a 15mph wind. I don't care though, as long as I can see the sunshine, I'm happy.

Looks like You, Sharn, Ruthy and maybe Beaker are getting pretty wet, but it looks like the rest of us are pretty dry...
