Sinatra Update from Mar 9 2008 — Mar 12 2008

March 9 2008 Sinatra is doing much better today and spent much more of his time up and eating instead of lying down and worrying me. The extra blanket is keeping him nice and warm and we have heat lamps as a backup if needed. He’s just so much scrawnier and weaker…

Holly Update — Mar 11, 2008

From Holly’s foster mom: Holly greeted me when I came out to feed this morning. All of my horses talk to me too. Holly and Emma got an other dusting for the bugs today. I’ll be glad when we are over that. Holly likes her brushings. No need to Thank me. It’s like being…

Phoenix Update

Phoenix’s bloodwork showed him as still a little anemic and protein levels a little low, but this morning he was down but got up by himself this morning. He wasn’t thrilled with his grain last night but this morning I tried it without any grass hay pellets in it and…

Holly Update — March 10, 2009

Update from Holly’s adopter: Holly will be started this year but I’m taking my time with her. I have saddled her and layed across her back. No big deal for her. Her butt has caught up with the withers so maybe she will quit growing. There is no rush to put her to work…

Holly Update — Mar 10, 2008

From Merle, Holly’s foster mom: Holly and Emma are doing great. Holly is a real looker but when Emma sheds out she will be so pretty too. Holly is about 12hh right now. I will measure her in a few days after we get to know each other. Emma isn’t too much shorter, so…

A positive Chance update

Great news…Chance’s drain came out today. Brittney reports that his wound is closing up nicely, so in a few days we can hopefully release him from the high-line in his stall so that he can lie down again if he want to. He’s been getting SMZs to fight infection in…

Another setback for Chance

Chance’s shoe boil blew up again and Dr. Hannah was called out yesterday to look at it. Dr Hannah was initially going to just try another round of antibiotics, but after examining it decided that because there was a tremendous amount of fluid and that it should be…
