Thank the Lord. Score another one for praying!
For sure. I was really concentrating on that left hoof re-growth - even threatened the Knox gelatin treatment, until I *thought* about it some more. (The sacrifice of the horses who have gone before.)
Now we can focus on the muscle tone. Not much can be done about that, I don't guess - but sheesh, he was in the tip-top, supreme, A#1, pluperfect condition any horse anywhere could've been in when this happened, so a "little" loss of conditioning for him doesn't even mean down to "average" yet. Not like he's getting a beer belly yet, I don't imagine.
Grow, Barbaro's hoof, Grow!
