I will let the photos speak for themselves- Enjoy!

Trigger wandering in the Barn aisle...

Snafu, Moses and Avalon...Thursday was Vet Day:
![]()
We had Indio checked as she was acting a bit colicy that morning. She was tubed with oil and water and watched through out the day. By the end of the day she was passing manure normally and by Friday morning she was passing oil.
We had Cowboy x-rayed. Dr. Schur found some ligament damage in his hip area which is causing his lameness. He is on stall rest for 30 days and then he should be able to go back out into a pasture where he can enjoy a good horse life...
We had Image checked, he is starting to lose weight and just doesn't feel like himself. The x-ray showed more sand in his intestine and he does have a significant heart murmur. He is on another special feed now to try to clear the sand out and he will be rechecked in a month or so.
We had Peace Pipe checked as he is just not gaining weight and seems so depressed. Dr. Schur suspects a low grade infection from his horrible castration procedure he had before his rescue. He is now on a strong antibiotic and was moved into the barn where he is close to us and where we can give him lots of attention.
She checked his teeth as well, his teeth were okay but he does have ulcers under his tongue. Dr. Schur also drew blood to check his liver function...
Marley, now renamed Helios by his adopter, Vic, was gelded. He did great and was feeling very good today.
Next up for Brain Surgery was the Curly colt, Sherlock...
He's down and dozing...
Dr. Schur getting ready to start...
A nice big group! The horses enjoy the attention as much as the students...
Old man, Sy, loved every minute of it!
So did Sally's Sage and Little Dude...
Heavenly too!
Breeze is looking so much better. In fact, she was moved out of the Barn and into the Bungalow Kinder Care area where she can enjoy a nice big turn out and private stall for foaling.
Over in Kinder Care, Dr. Schur checked her out. She said one more month to go!
