Ahh-HUH! It was an Abcess after all!

Turns out I was right! Oscar DID have an abcess! A few days after my last post a big Abcess burst open on his heel - OUCH! But it is a relief, because now It means that I can stop worrying about what it is making him so lame! He will be getting shoes on this week.. Two weeks after the abcess has poped, and then he will come back into work - YAY.

Minke's winter turn out is now over as of last week and she is sooo full of herself...But I kinda like it its fun! (not that I should be encouraging that behaviour!) She seems to still be a fit as she was when I turned her out -That is probably from the laps at gallop she seems to do twice daily in the paddock..no wonder she is always pulling shoes!! Im really excited about what the season is going to bring for us. Im really going to concentrate hard on her and I and getting us out there and competing. I know that I really need to work on her dressage this season, so I am going to really concentrate on that and hopefully we may be able to do a decent Prelim test?!?!?!

Will probably ride this avo if the rain holds off, so will get some pic's and put them up tonight!
