So the vet told me that I can start walking Tanner 2x a day for 10 minutes. So today we started that... Um easier said than done!
Let me just set up this situation... for the past week give or take... Tanner has been locked up in a tiny tiny stall... every day twice a day he gets a decent amount of "grain" with his meds... Well if you dont know "grain" is for older horses and it gives them a little boost. Its like giving a 5 year old a bunch of cotton candy. So he is hyper!
I put a chain around his nose so at least he may listen to me. Its called a Stud Chain, its used to kind of pinch him a little. Obviously he doesnt feel it and the ten minute walk felt like an eternity of him pulling me around. Eating everything in sight and spooking at anything... oh and there are a bunch of pepper trees so he not only reached down to get the grass and weeds but up to get the tree... he is like a giraffe, which is fine by me because they are one of my favorite zoo animals!
Well my mom took pictures and I am way excited because he looks so darn cute in his purple blanket and purple wraps! I love that I have to match his outfit...it must be the rodeo queen in me:)
So I have to do this one more time today...aye vey!
