Good News :D

Today we went back to Cambirdge Equine Clinic for Mayfly's check-up.

She was far from impressed to be back there again, and kept her eye on us the whole time to make sure that we weren't about to leave her there again! haha.

Yet again the vets spent ages attempting to get Mayfly to stand square as she kept resting her legs or just standing like a numpty.
Then she woddled around whilst they all studied her movement, before lunging her when she decided to have a little bit of a fun canter...much to the vet's surprise!
They also did a flexion on her which was funny to watch as they struggled to hold up her legs. lol.

She was very happy to get back home as she had a bit of a worry in the lorry, too much for her leggies.
Then when we did finally get home she had to sqeeze her way into little Flea's rug as Ben had the one she wears on, and due to her being so incredibly fat I had to lengthen all the straps!!

So overall the vet said that she has improved a lot, and that she can now start to be trotted out on hacks and go for longer distances, still keeping it nice and easy on the old girl :o)
