I will get pictures....

I hope to have lots of pics posted next Monday... I know a long time but there are alot of pics that I want to post! I need to organize them accordingly.

Dodge:

I am going to take alot of pictures of saddeling tomm. So that there is some sort of timeline of things. I'm also going to dig out her first pictures and give a timeline that way. She has gained SO much weight! It's been an amazing journey and she is the most awesome first horse. She really is, I'm learning so much from her!

On Monday I wanted to ride her and that was my full intention, I'd hadn't ridden since our last "first" ride. So I go to catch her out of the feild and I notice some blood on her hind end. I didn't think too much about it and put her in the stall to grain her and do a groom. Turns out she had a rip on her vagina. How in the hell?

I got the BO and asked her if she noticed the rip and she said she hadn't. Which makes sense because it was still bleeding so it was fresh. Me and her both kinda freak out, start washing the area off and make a frantic call into the vet. The vet said there really isn't much to do just watch the area, keep it as clean as you can and then wait for it to heal.

I went back out on Tuesday and it was healing just fine! I rinsed the area and put a healthy dose of Furazone on it and turned her out. Hopefully when I get out there tomm, it will be almost completely healed and I will go riding! Hopefully.... She seems to heal really quickly from things.

On Tuesday she also got her teeth done for the first time! She was sedated as we weren't sure what to expect from her, but it was a light sedation. She was awesome. Everything worked out really really well. Hopefully she'll get that last bit of weight she needs on her.

Last thing she now needs is a farrier. I'm waiting on another horse at the barn to get her feet done and I'll throw Dodge into the farrier mix. Her feet are long but still look "ok". If I can't get them done by next week I'll start calling farriers, it does make me nervous to have her hooves growing out. Her frogs though, look really healthy and she just has a teeny bit of thrush left.

That is the Dodge update!
