I think Tuesday im going to start putting him back outside on pasture. He will be SO happy. It has been 2 months since he did it and his mouth has been healing super well. It looks almost completely normal now! I let him graze for a little bit on Friday after I washed his tail and his legs, since it was a decent sunny day and he is super duper gross. He has been doing really good for being on stall rest though. Im thinking he might have a little less energy for our rides once he gets to go outside again but maybe he will have a little better half halt :)
On another note... my birthday is on Wednesday and since we have tomorrow off from work my mom, best friend Alanna, and I are headed up to Portland Meadows to watch some TB racing (as long as the roads are not to bad from the snow)! I am SO excited! I have been before but it was a long time ago with my Pony Club. Recently I have really decided that a goal I have is to eventually start a OTTB rescue so I can give horses who owners dont want them anymore a safe place until new homes can be found. That way they dont "have" (not that I believe they ever really have to) to resort to sending them to auction/slaughter. Im super excited to make it out there again!
You know what I like about this? It means I should have a good selection of bay thoroughbred geldings (with chrome) to choose from. :)
