I finally cracked the case!!! aka I remembered my password

Sorry for the long time between blogs I forgot the password but as you can see I broke the code!!!! Any ways here is a briefing of what has happened since last we talked.

So its been quite a journey thus far with the beast. We completed therapy using the cold compression system, Game Ready. Tanner enjoyed every minute of it. I measured his leg from the middle of treatment to the completion and it went down 3/10ths of an inch. I am so pleased.

Bed ridden or should I say corral ridden Tanner is doing the best a 4 year old can do. We have figured out a system on how to keep him generally calm but he still gets a little hop in his step every once in awhile. 

I'm really starting to feel the depth of this injury... Im gettin horse crazy. I really want to ride him and it kills me whenever I walk out to feed or water or even just bath him. This whole situation is just terrible. I know that it could be worse but I am getting stir crazy with out my noble stead to sit upon.

Well I will try to remember to do this more often. To keep his progress updated. 

Oh yes Tanner is turning into quite the funny guy lately... when I go in his corral to clean it he takes the pitch fork and walks away from me... also the other day I was loading up the wheel barrel in his coral and right when I was about to put the last scoop in the barrel Tanner decided it would be a great idea to flip the entire barrel and all my hard work over. So I had to start all over. 

Till next time...ride tall
