Lame Hobbler :(

Poor Mrs. Fly!

Went down early this morning, helped muck out which I haven't done in a longggg time (was actually quite ok).
Mayfly's lip was wobbling as per usual!

Weather wasn't it's lovely self soo I had no excuse not to go in the arena and do some schooling...well to start with anyway.
Tacked The Fly up and started by letting her stretch on a long rein, then when we began to trot, and we discovered she was a little lame. :o(
She was dragging her near hind (the leg that she is usually stiff on).
So I continued to walk her on a long rein so she could stretch and losen it up a bit, and that was it for the day.

I checked her over and there is no heat on the leg or obvious injury, so hopefully she will be ok asap, otherwise there will be no christmas eve hack!!

Silly marey.
