It has been 6 days since Dass's injury. She is now able to walk with all her weight on the ankle. We still don't know if she will ever be able to run again. It's so sad. This horse just lives for can chasing. You have to see her run to understand. She will run her heart out for you, and she will give you a ride of the lifetime too. There are times when we come through the gate on just her back legs and when she does that, all I can say is, HANG ON!!!!!!!! It's like she knows what the time is when we come out of the gate. If we had a good run she is prancing, not a good one, she hangs her head low.
I just don't know about the new horse. He is just plum lazy!!! I have to really spur the crap out of him just to keep him in a lope.
I have a colt that came out of my other barrel horse and I hope he has his mother's genes. He is a spunky little one. He will be 1 the first day of March. When he was born he had a question mark on his head. My great neice and great nephew is the ones who named him.,UNO. What a name but it fits him. I told them that was their colt and they are just so excited but now they want to know when am I going to break him for them.HAHA I am to old to be trying to ride the buck out of something. That's why I sold HellBitch. I know , what a name, but you just have to see this mare. When she bucks she gets all 4 off the ground. The last time she threw me , I picked peagravel out of my backside for 2 days. The mare hates me. When I get around her she throws her ears back and rolls her eyes. It's scary.
I sold a great little barrel horse and now I wish I had her back. Her name is FATBABY. I could run barrels , poles, do cow catching or just trail ride on her. I have come out the gate from running barrels and got off her and put my great neice on her. That is how awesome she was. She knew when a kid got on her.
Time for me to go and feed and doctor on Dass. We are getting ready for district goat show this weekend. Hope my goats make the weight limit. They changed the rules this year and now for district and Dixie Nationals the goats have to way between 60lbs and 110lbs. Have you ever heard of such????
