When he is ready to hear, pass on my sympathies and remind him that Hoagie is waiting at the bridge :(

WOO HOO :~D

I know his horse had yet another surgery to remove melanomas on his chest a few weeks ago, he's waiting for that to heal so it won't interfere with the breastcollar. He might be ready soon.

I think he has :~D

I wrote up some thoughts with the pictures that I sent to Kay, maybe she'll print it for him, since computers are something he doesn't do :~)

Thanks. It's sad... he loved that mule almost as much as I love Bay... It's inevitable that we'll grieve the ones that are special to us.

Hoagie sure was a fine lookin' fella and I'm so sorry for Bob's loss. Like you say, we've all gotta cross that bridge with our pets some day and all we can hope for is that we do right by them. I know that Bob knows that he did the right thing but it never gets any easier.

No, it doesn't.

My honey came home early... You'd think we could come up with something better to do than mowing, but mowing is what I'm headed out to do. Maybe a ride later.

Definitely check with the vet first off the bat. Tell him your concerns.

There is NO WAY that anybody could fail to see that there was something Bad Wrong with that horse. So if the vet doesn't confirm the story about the illness/contaminated feed, I would run not walk to the ASPCA or other local animal welfare group.

If the horse is really sick though, I can sympathize with the guy. I have a cat slowly going down with cancer, and he looks like he just spent a stint in Dachau. He's literally a walking skeleton despite our best efforts to tend to him.

OMG, and it didn't put you right to sleep?

I went out to eat with my husband at our favorite restaurant. It is still 91 degrees here at 8:30 PM. I don't know what the official high was but anything over 95 is just TOO FREAKIN' HOT!

I am saving up my TV time for tomorrow night when the Miami Heat comes to Dallas to play my Mavericks in game 1 of the NBA Finals!! First time in the finals for both teams. I think all of us Mavs fans are still in shock that we actually made it.

Just got back inside after putting the horses up. I have to bring them over from next door where they are helping my neighbor mow his 2 acres.

Tomorrow morning I will ride. I need to work Henkell because we have a clinic next weekend (not the one coming up). If I have time, I'll tune Jake up too before it gets too hot to ride.

Well, I rode this morning, spent the afternoon with Jenny, lunch and shopping, watched JP a little in the late afternoon so Kristy could ride, and just now finished lunging Harley....Busy day.

I still have to feed, and muck his stall, but taking a break.

Actually I enjoyed watching them. Most of the ones I see are ill. It was good to see them cutting the rug.

There is a small dog that someone dumped at my church. I tried to catch her but we didn't quiet get there tonight. She had a bag of chips and 3 piece of bologne tonight anyway. If she doesn't get run over tonight and is still around in the morning I'll get the pound to pick her up for me.

One of my best memories is my husband's Grandmother dancing the Chicken Dance at our wedding reception.

I really shouldn't diss polka bands. My FIL plays in one.
