“Mom, I am NOT a piggy pony!”

So Gen told me what he wanted to be for Halloween, but I didn’t like his idea. I found something I thought that would be adorable on him. A pig mask! I mean, he acts like a pig sometimes so it was perfect. Gen clearly does not think so. I wanted it to be higher [...]
My horse is supposed to be back to normal turnout…

in a week! 7 day! That is like nothing. I am not sure if I am going to be ready by then. Gen is already ready to go back to his normal routine! He gets the full medical field on Friday if he keeps being good like he was today. Clearly he was just having [...]

So we are 8 days in to the injury and Gen’s leg is looking great. He did get wrapped last night but he was naked during the day and his leg only had minimal swelling today. It was good to see such an improvement. What is was not great was his attitude. I had to [...]
A little swelling and a little turnout…

So I was not surprised to find Gen’s leg a little swollen today when I got to the barn. Poor pony has been on stall rest for a week and went without wraps last night. I am not 100% sure why my vet said no wraps. It might have something to due with the pressure [...]
He went out!

I am proud to report that the swelling was almost totally gone today! That meant that my boy was allowed to at least have a little Mommy free time. He got 40 minutes in half of the medical field (about 20×25 meters) and he was a saint! Head to the ground eating the whole time, [...]

So only 5 days after his injury I am happy to report that the swelling is almost all gone in Gen’s leg!!! YAY! The bump on the front of his leg is almost gone too. I can’t believe how fast it has been healing. It is right on track with how my vet said that [...]

So Gennyral is getting cold hosed everyday until the swelling goes away. The barn owner has this cool hose thing that wraps around the injured area which works so much better then if I held a hose up to his leg. That means that for 20-25 minutes a day I have nothing to do but [...]
Still getting better…

I am happy to report that my Genny’s leg was looking better again today. YAY! I feel so much better. The swelling has gone down on the injury site but something else is making me a little worried. A new bump has shown up (there is a picture of it below). Hopefully it will [...]
Gennyral update tendon sheath day one

So I am VERY happy to report that when I took off Gen’s soft cast today the swelling actually looks like it went down a little bit. That is HUGE because if his body was attacking itself it would have looked worse today. I finally was able to take a deep breath after seeing that. [...]
