She's getting around really well!  Sort of looks like she's been drinking, though...lol.  It's cute how she talks the whole time she's puttering around.  love.gif

I thought I'd post an update to my horse's injury.  The gash has pretty much sealed up, and the skin edges are coming together nicely.  I'm thinking another week, and I'll be able to start leaving it unwrapped and doctor it that way.  Now the question is what sort of damage was done to the cartilage, and such, deep down in the foot, and will he be sound or permanently lame.  I'll be glad to be done with wrapping!

Thanks, Dutch!  She does seem to still teeter in her balance, but every day she shows big improvement.  And yes, she is quite the chatterbox! 

 

Glad to hear your horse is doing better!!
