Instructions for Duke

Okay - this is the chiropractor giving me instructions about what we need to be doing with Duke over the next month.  I was a bit surprised at that part about him not "collecting" -- that's what we always spent the most time trying to get him to do, not to "NOT" do!  In order for him to gait, he has to collect.  But hey -- we'll try and get him to stretch out and see what happens.  Once he feels flexible again maybe he'll gait even better.  We'll have to see. 

Unfortunately, when I came home today it was POURING down rain -- again.  I got them fed, then came inside to wait for the rain to stop.  By the time it did unfortunately I was NOT standing back up.  So . . . no one got exercised at all tonight.  Can you believe? . . . the very FIRST day after they get examined and I'm doing nothing at all.  Sigh.  Well, they're both closed in their paddocks so if it isn't raining in the morning we'll do their workouts then before they eat. 

Right now?  Time for bed.  Early.  VERY early.  Enough.
