More Pics

Figured it's been awhile since I posted any pictures.

Can't tell that Dude is lopsided. I still need to take him to the chiropractor to see if that will help. I was trying to get him there this spring and it's already the middle of summer. Maybe next month?

Sam. He's picked up a bit of weight since I first got him. He still looks tough. I figure it'll take about six months before he is back to the right weight and another three months after that to get him fat. Not sure if that'll happen since we'll be heading into fall/winter when he hits the nine month anniverary with me. But I don't see as many ribs these days as before. There's also absolutely no depression these days either. He's buddied up with Brego again so life is pretty good. Sam has the routine done pat. He knows which door to go to, to get into the barn for his grain. He's also learned that being in the barn isn't so bad. At first he was claustrophobic. I still can't leave him in the barn for very long even with Bob in there. I'm afraid Sam will bust out the window if I left him in the barn for very long. I wonder what winter will be like. I'll need to pu him in a stall that doesn't have a window!

I should do a blog about Sam and show the pictures of progress. Could be interesting. I was looking at his pics when he first arrived. It's definately an improvement although I'd still prefer an additional 100 pounds. I like my horses fat and sassy... or more like fat and lazy.

Up close view of Sam. I don't see any depression in those eyes. He also lost his mustache somewhere. I'm not sure if it's just a summer thing or what but it's gone. He had a bug fluffy mustache is it's completely gone. I wonder if it's not the soaked grain he gets, or maybe it's just the 24x7 pasture time? Who knows. But there's no more mustache. Hope he gets it back this winter. Sam's mustache was pretty cute!
