Someones Feeling Better!

ahh Mayfly is a funny one :o)

Went for a walky/trot hack today with Catherine on Benjamin, as she is looking basically non-lame now.
She started very slow, dawdling along poor Ben couldn't actaully walk any slower. lol. However as soon as we turn towards home she was off!
I don't think I have ever seen a horse walk so fast, we were having marching races. haha. Then came the jogging...I felt it coming, and god it does annoy me when she jogs (got us onto the topic of Bluebell Ride which we will have to go on again in April as it was somewhat of a laugh even though the jogging did drive us mental!)
As the hack drew to an end Mayfly spiritally decided every few strided she would swish her tail and "jump" into and energetic trot...couldn't work out her reasons for this. Guessing she wasn't to impressed about and hours hack in walk and trot, and she seemed to be blaming it on Ben by attempting to kick him, despite the fact that she was the lame one.

The bandages are doing wonders on Fly's legs, they are looking great. This annoyingly means that she is going to be bandaged every night, but it makes the difference for her soo guess I have no choice.

Fingers crossed she will not have suffered from messing around today, we will try to take it easy tomorrow.
