Thanks. I was and still am upset. We are going to be on that TV show on RFDTV and I won’t be able to be on my favorite horse. I have been kidding and saying “Now she can’t be a TV star!”. Daisy is fine and pretty, but she doesn’t “BOND” with people like the relationship Faith and I have. Only horse people understand that feeling.
The main thing is that she should be sound and heal in 2-3 wks. and not have a 6 month healing process like it could have been if Hal had not been there and noticed her limping and checked on her. So far she’s not tried to get her bandage off and is not limping anymore. I went and checked on her at 5AM and woke her up. She was laying flat on her side in the stall. I just turned the light out and left as quietly as I could so she wouldn’t get up and down on that leg any more than necessary. She won’t sleep standing up. I’ve abt. decided not to take her for the weekend ‘cause I think it would upset her for us to ride off and leave her.
We rode yesterday and she was nickering at us when we loaded the other horses and drove off and she couldn’t go.
She stuck her head in the halter to go this am, but she didn’t know it was just to go have her shoes pulled off and feet trimmed. I hope she was able.
Aw... such a bummer to have her not be there with you. I hope it’s a fun experience anyway.
Is there going to be a way to share this show with those of us who don’t get RFDTV? I don’t even have a VCR any more. I hope somehow it can be uploaded to the web. I’d like to be able to see you guys and say “I knew them when they were nobodies!” :~)
Is Daisy as good at the dirty looks as Faith is? LOL
So sorry about your horse - hope the leg heals quickly.
