I hope she's still healing! It sounds like you do a terrific job as her horse owner. :) And as tough as it is when they're hurt... I agree, somehow it seems to build our relationship when we're forced to do lots of ground work. I've found this even in the past when I've been too weak after sickness to ride and resorted to ground exercises. However, I'm sure you miss the regular rides, so I hope you're able to get back to it soon! Wa will be in my prayers. :)Mellimaushttp://ridingdaisy.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-54204275639340268622012-02-26T08:06:08.943-08:002012-02-26T08:06:08.943-08:00Thanks my friends for the encouragement....week 5 ...Thanks my friends for the encouragement....week 5 has proven discouraging for horse and human....<br />She's getting very restless.

Glad to hear you are doing such a cracking job looking after Washashe, but then I would expect no less from you, you take great care of your mare, it’s nice that the rehab has made Washashe and you even firmer friends. It’s also good to hear that your sister is doing better now I hope she’ll be fully recovered very soon. <br />Regards<br />EdwardEdwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01147322172866367128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-54987789596794727542012-02-20T05:54:45.305-08:002012-02-20T05:54:45.305-08:00That boulder field looks nasty--ow!

I find it hard to believe that large, sharp rock was not removed, or better yet, never allowed to be put down in the first place. Covering it up will never work... it is almost reason to go to another place ... injuries like this will just keep happening. I'm so sorry. <br /><br />Eddie (the "third" horse) is just a fantasy. I have two daughters and we could all own one, and YES, the two we have are horses that are/will be just as fantastic. I'm lucky. And with school, the girls do best sharing their horse. But he will make someone a nice trail horse... I'm promoting him around my barn. <br /><br />On another note, I just LOVE all the trials you ride...Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00007201357693227614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-33083210613578020272012-02-19T07:26:01.895-08:002012-02-19T07:26:01.895-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.allhorsestuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05301081722884351021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-20023242005164931192012-02-18T12:51:34.717-08:002012-02-18T12:51:34.717-08:00Glad to hear that Wa mare and your sis are recover...Glad to hear that Wa mare and your sis are recovering. That's a nasty looking injury. Seems like you've got it all under control and she should be back to her old Wa mare self soon. So nice that you are both having a fun time on the ground, that's important too. <br /><br />Wonder if they could have that big stone rolled with a heavy machine before they put more small stone over it?

My sister brought her BIG DOG 35 yr old clippers-air vent to cool them-louder than heck they are!! The trickier areas we did with the small cordless. I am A HAIRDRESSER remember...I have an eye for lines!!<br /><br />Thank you DI!<br /> I have never seen a "slice" through the frog like this before...watching it fill in and grow back has been sorta interesting.<br /><br />Carolina,<br />You sure got that right about the drugs from sergury...siss is on her 3rd week now and she feels like crapola! She has stopped the pain meds altogether. This may prove difficult now, since she has startted P.T.T. ( Physical Therapy Torture)!<br /><br />Val~<br />Yea...the Base BOULDERS are terribly sharp at speed...1,000 lbs coming down on them is the problem! I have many mind issues concering her turnout now...second time to be injured in THAT TURNOUT. I did all the rehaqbing myself without a $150 vet call...but spent more than that -in Gas- getting there twice a day.<br />I don't know, maybe a different turnout, I am thinking during the wet season, when her hooves are soft.<br />We are the SMART HUMANS to make a good decision for the animals. She is the DUNMB horse....that lives with the environmwent we give her.<br />She has NO CHOICE, and she is who she is...can't take the run out of her!<br /><br />Shirley~<br />Yea...it is NOT GOOD ROCK to have around horses...it was not supposed to be the ratio it has turned out to be. Now I have to live with that mistake. <br />There is Remedy- but- IF- it is taken care of,is the question.<br /><br />The walking is So good for them...builds such confidence and respect as you need your space as a walker on foot with them. I always carry my training stick in case something is spooky and I become an obstacle to run through.<br />I also taught the mare to help me up hills that are steep or too slick,by going ahead at walk and letting me use her tail for my balance behind her. It's nice teamwork.<br /><br />Thanks Lori.<br />It has been long and labor intensive...but when the weather is crap, not too bad...I have begun to ride anothers horse at the stable as she is had a baby and the horse has not been ridden for 10 months of so!<br /><br />Yes Sasha, the bright side is always there...casting shadow upon the ugly situations!<br />I sure hope your mare is alright...write me an email!!<br /><br />Terry,<br />Funny you should say that about taking care of myself too...I did have to go to the Dr. during all this, got run down and ill.<br />I am better now...we are ALL on the mend.<br /><br />Sally dear,<br />Yes the sun is nowe out again...QUICK get out too!<br /><br />Jenn, Yup, the 60 during the days and the 20's at night...too strange!allhorsestuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05301081722884351021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-52489817291438097722012-02-18T07:04:05.261-08:002012-02-18T07:04:05.261-08:00Poor girl!!!Poor girl!!!islandwonderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09727478242779134189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-28152484200148681442012-02-17T22:02:55.761-08:002012-02-17T22:02:55.761-08:00Awwwww, poor mare.
