Mmmmm…medicine mush.…
Great news…Chance’s drain came out today. Brittney reports that his wound is closing up nicely, so in a few days we can hopefully release him from the high-line in his stall so that he can lie down again if he want to. He’s been getting SMZs to fight infection in the wound, and those are fed to him by hiding them in a mash, which he loves. He’s been a very, very good boy for his twice-daily flushings and cleanings, despite the fact that it hurts and he does not like the feel of water running down his leg. We are very proud of him for tolerating his treatment so well. We’re also super grateful to Terry and Brittney and the volunteers for nursing him through this issue. Looks like we are on track for a full recovery, which is great news for this very nice horse.
So happy for Chance! He is indeed a very nice horse and so patient with his treatments. He deserves some playtime in the pastures soon!
So glad to hear Chance
is getting some relief!
What a wonderful horse
he is!
Chance needing a bit more TLC during his recovery meant I got a chance (ha ha!) to get a bit more up close and personal with him and I have to say, what a prince!! he is kind and gentle and soft of eye. soooo happy for attention and pets and murmers of “what a good boy you are”, you could see his eyes sparkle from the extra love :). He’s going to make someone a fabulous forever horse!
