Henry is sound!

[John Hasler]

My "new" saddle horse Henry is now sound (or nearly so). I haven't been
able to do much with him for over a year because of foreleg lameness,
probably ringbone. I put him on firocoxib (Equioxx) and it seemed to
help but not enough. Then we finally got the farrier out and I
convinced her to shorten his toes (she always trims too long in my
opinion). That made an amazing difference. And now the weather is about
to warm up a bit.

That's great news! I hope you get to enjoy some great rides with him!

Our last boarded horse left this morning. We are now completely out of
the horse business. Still feeding horses, of course: we still have my
gelding Henry, our retired stallion Fred, and five retired mares.

We also still sell a bit of hay.
