Sadly, those pics were taken in May/June and we’ve been out of commission since then, with the exception of a lot of tack walking. She had an abscess for two weeks and while that was resolving, we got the results of a Lyme titer back and she was positive. So I started treating with Doxy but after two weeks, I didn’t think it was working (yes I know it takes longer but I’ve treated a lot of horses for Lyme and usually I see some improvement early on), so I sent her to the vet for 2 weeks of IV oxytet. We thought something else might be going on so when that was over I sent her to Tufts for a work up and bone scan, which fortunately just indicated inflammation in the stifles (which we already knew, this confirmed it was not a bigger problem). We just started her rehab yesterday and hopefully that is her last vet bill ever. Oh, except it won’t be because we found ulcers in there somewhere and she will need to be re-scoped. Horses, jeez.
After the winter we just had, all I wanted to do was ride, and all I could do was walk and worry.
Ooooh, seestrah!! Yup, worked great, thank you!! I love her! Looks like you two have fun. What's her barn name? How is she on the XC?
I would love to play with a little bit of jumping and maybe a baby event in the future. I evented in Pony Club and did a lot of jumping as a teenager. Mikey likes to jump so it's in the back of my head and I love a well rounded horse. I think it's really good for them mentally and physically.
And abscesses have been terrible this year at the other barn where I've been riding the past 5 years.

Jingles for that being the last vet bill!
