Chiron: post gelding update.
Chiron is struggling with the idea of life without "attachments". He is being lunged and cold hosed daily, in order to prevent any swelling or infection and is slowly feeling more and more fit. That's great for him but a little more trouble for us.
He was so emaciated, the muscles were basically wasted away. Watching how he continues to recover has been interesting to observe. He no longer appears to be lame and everyday he gets a tiny bit more peppy....and that includes his attitude about mares. Clearly he hasn't gotten the message that his "dangling participles" no longer exist.
Luckily, we have a couple of mares strategically placed so he is more willing to go around and around in a circle. He can enjoy the view and dream of days gone by while we dream of the day when he stops thinking about girls so much!
Last weekend we took on a few more horses in need of rehab. While not as extreme as Chiron, the costs will add up. If you can help, please donate atwww.auctionhorsesrescue.com/donate.html
