So I don't get to end this monthly wrap-up with completely healthy and sound horse due to his week long cellulitis battle. BUT he did end the month completely healthy and sound. Which I am so, so grateful for.
August he had:
- 18 rides
- 5 lessons with JT
- 2 training rides with JT alone, 4 of the 5 lessons in which she worked him for part of the lesson
- A huge change in his way of going - the building blocks for bending through his body and neck and lifting his withers
- So much time away from home!
- 1 night at the hospital
- 5 days at JT's
- A week of stall rest - he was the most excellent boy for that week. Brain cells all present even on day 7 in a stall. I did cheat a bit though...
- We actually did work on desensitizing to the clippers this month! It is far from perfect, but there were improvements.
- We did some ToH in hand too!
- More progress on his feet - x-rays showed a 0 degree palmar angle in his worse (right) foot and +3 in the left. His sole depth had improved A LOT too. Hooray for progress!
