🏥Medical 🏥

Whiskey - new owner surrender due to laminitic episode and metabolic syndrome diagnosis. Was very sore for several days after arrival, is on pain meds and wearing cloud boots which help a great deal. In a small pen with Plucky.

Paisley - corneal ulcer in left front eye. Triple antibiotic eye ointment several times a day and has been moved to a larger pen.

Rocky - recent intake due to inability to maintain weight. Gaining weight quickly with the addition of high fat and senior pellets to his diet twice a day. Taking applications for adoption.

Plucky - laminitic episode, week 4. Started Prascend for Cushings. Still stiff but improving slowly. No longer on stall rest, now in a small pen with Whiskey.

Reba - cuts on left front knee, on stall rest. Continues to adjust well to her blindness from a training accident. Have started short walks for movement.

Phoebe - rehab for weight gain. Continues to gain, will consider applications for Pasture Pal placement to an experienced home.

Benny - navicular. The recent cold snap did cause him to show some discomfort even on Equioxx. Going to try shoes to see if we can make him more comfortable.

🥕 Behavior 🥕  
   
Kody - in pasture, calming, and curious. Physical condition fully rehabbed, working on friendliness.

Lucy - in pasture, calm and friendly. Much calmer when bonded friends removed from pasture and accepting attention even in a group of friends without aggression. Next step: haltering and leading away from friends. Goal: Dakota Showdown 2024 prospect.
