Looking at Lake Paddock from the road in camp |
The last day of camp was Fri and Thurs night he pulled his front right shoe off. Whatevs, didn’t have time to ride this weekend anyways. Farrier comes out Saturday and trims/shoes all 4 feet (he was due anyways) Life is good now, right?
CHIMI!!!!!!!! |
Wrong. This morning the horses came in to eat and Chimi seemed fine walking into the barn. I didn’t pay a lot of attention but nothing out of the ordinary caught my eye. I went to turn him out and noticed he was acting a little funny on his back right foot. I picked up his foot and sure enough the bad pony had pulled his shoe and stepped on his clip ð Farrier came out and pulled the shoe bc it was so damn tight on his hoof I couldn’t do it. (He just got new shoes 3 days ago!!!) He walked off a bit sore so farrier decided not to put the shoe back on quite yet so I soaked, wrapped, and poulticed it to draw any abscess out. Hopefully he’ll be fine by Thurs bc farrier is leaving for the weekend and it’d be nice to have a shoe back on!!!
I guess Chimi wasn’t ready to get back to work?
Chimi must have been texting with Cruze about ways to stay “retired”. LOL! I hope the shoe can go back on and you get to swing a leg over your boy this weekend.
ReplyDeleteSuch bad ponies! Chimi will get his phone taken away from him for texting with Cruze ;) hahahahaha!!!! I hope your guy is feeling better soon and will keep his shoes on this next go round!
DeleteUghhh :(
ReplyDeleteMajor case of Ughhh!!
DeleteOMG. How frustrating now that camp is finally over!
ReplyDeleteSeriously!!!!! 3 months and he was fine. Now that I'm free- bye bye shoes!!! :P
DeleteOMG. CHIMI STOP THIS NOW. WTF Poor you. Very annoying. And Lake Paddock LOL
ReplyDeleteThe Lake Paddock is kinda small and cute. It's great though b/c it has a little "beach" area where we can go swimming with the horses :)
DeleteSometimes I do feel like they are plotting to get out of work!
