Beech is still under observation.<\/p>\n
The vet will come back in the next week or two and re-assess his condition and prognosis.<\/p>\n
I suppose I’ve taken the last couple of weeks to program myself for the worst; I’m resigned to it now. It won’t make things easier, just make the acceptance less difficult to cope with.<\/p>\n
Vin, meanwhile, continues to be a star at dressage with two more rosettes for getting placed at Allenshill in the last few weeks.<\/p>\n
Vinnie’s a clever boy, very talented – when I’m able to calm him down and overcome his stress levels. At other times he can be a little difficult and a bit of a handful.<\/p>\n
I’m planning on taking him out to the Wyre Forest pleasure ride tomorrow – he deserves a bit of a treat.<\/p>\n
I’ve been so busy on a combination of the 9-5 and OU stuff lately that I’ve taken my eye off the horse ball (so to speak).<\/p>\n
I need to buck up:<\/p>\n
* Vin needs a clip
\n* he’s shortly due his second flu\/tet (I accidentally let his course lapse due to a cock-up in scheduling), but they’ve both been wormed in the last couple of weeks (thanks Sue!)
\n* there are no competitions in the diary<\/p>\n
Not good enough, must try harder!<\/p>\n
