As the year ends...

I hope everyone had a great Christmas.  Tadg is showing a lot more energy the last couple of days.  When I was cleaning his stall he was kicking up his heels and bouncing back and forth between his double wide stall and little paddock.  Ever vigilante, Tadg noticed right away that I switched our mare Fog with our mare Nainsi.  That bothered him a good part of the day.  I am able to walk up on both sides now and pet him and get a hold of his halter.  The vision in his left eye seems fine.  The swelling has gone down quite a bit and is beginning to sink into the socket.  Tadg allows me to rub his face all over except for the immediate area around the socket.

I have a lot of questions for Dr. McFadden.  I am still cautious about doing much with him for fear of causing further injury.  I am looking forward to the day I can at least take him for a walk around the farm.

I was to have lunch with several horse woman today.  I always look forward to our lunch.  However, things happen and I had to go back home.  If any read this, I want you to know how much I missed going to lunch and hope you all had a great time.

If anyone is interested in seeing our border collie puppies go to connemaraponies.dyndns.org (no www.)


I am also attaching a couple of pictures of Tadg's head.  Have a great New Year and Happy trails will we meet again.  Marcia
