This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bonnie is doing so good! We found a farrier that works with her rapid hoof growth, due to founder. She's getting trimmed every 5 weeks. The first time JW trimmed her, she was lame for about 3-4 days after (which it has been a min of 10 days) and then the 2nd time he trimmed her, she was sound the same day, went on a ride that afternoon! No bute! It's amazing.
She is toning her chest up, with being sound, we ride her almost every day! A few days we've ridden up to 10 miles! Mostly walk. I have a harness and sulky that I borrowed, she seems to know what she is doing in that dept. The link I added, is a picture of Bonnie in harness and cart! I'm letting her mane grow out, so she looks more like a buckskin/dun than a fjord right now! Unless you look at her tail, then you know! She is really sweet, and everybody that see's her, loves her! I have hope, now that we are "ahead" or seem to be... I hope that we can stay ahead thru the spring time, and try and beat this founder. I hope for no more episodes that are as bad as what we went thru. Bonnie is a foundered horse with a happy ending, new beginning! This is the picture. http://groups.msn.com/isapi/fetch.dll?action=MyPhotos_GetMBPhoto& ImageID=nFwAAAGQId1jFwEs5uFHE2lESg2bZjYLgi1x8GBKmMZkmJ8OfU609Xg JRD & Bonnie!
