i do what Laree does but west Nile one more time (we have longer
summers, way longer) and rhino/flu to my horses that leave the
property. I do strangles if there is an outbreak only, and my vet
always tells people when there is an outbreak and I always buy---this
is verrryyy important---
Here is a video of the three colts this morning. The colt with the locking
patella is the red bay yearling. The others in the paddock are his black

(Vinnie is full of mischief and is just adorable - he's about 12H.)
