Everything was OK at 8a.m. but at 9 a.m. my friend was bleeding .... so even though it is Sunday ... and more expensive ...." Vet you have got to come over here, we need you "
And so Asshie (ex-Amoroso) needed some stiches.
The big boys are now finally seperated for good.... Cuba and the Black are together in a paddock ... and then Asshie, Alta Nero and Pretty Face are in another paddock. The distribution of the paddocks has changed again and all cables are adjusted so again, thanks to my neighbours Tony and Michael. What would I do without t heir help when I 'm in need. They are great ! Thanks guys !
Lalo has also looked at the Black and Punkie, Chicki and Cubanito ... Black Pearl is another big job... I should try to obtain urine from him for further investigation.
I had an appointment this afternoon at the ranch where the littlens were for a month... to give some info about Natural Horsemanship and the next Parellidays at our ranch ...
On the way I stopped at a bin and saw some terrible scenes ... One had only 1 eye left and a hole in his throat which the other dog was licking. The other dog's ears and tail were almost completely cut off and all 3 .... they were emaciated. And in my dirt bags were just some tagliatelli .... which they ate as quick as possible ... Well if you know me a bit you know I go crazy of such scenes.... and so I went to look for a large department store .... Half an hour later I was back with a bag and box with food for them ...
It's awful that I can not do anything more for them .... I can not take them with me ... I've already got 4 .... Animal rescue will kill them after 10 days ... So what do you do ?... . On days like this I am disgusted by the mentality here
I have only 1 eye and a hole in my throat My ears and tail were cut off with a knife We are discarded by humanity
And my heart bleeds .... I'm not made to survive in this world ... I loathe the humans who do these things ...
We don't understand yet what is going but every few weeks he has difficulties to urinate and then I need to clean and massage him. But today it did not solve that problem and so I had, after washing him 3 times, to give him a pain killer (after consultation with my DA) at 8 p.m.... It's going to be a funky short nightagain
mijn kinders toch....waarom kan het nu eens geen week goedgaan ? my kinders still .... why is it now, not a week go well?
The bandages were replaced and the wounds taking care off ...
He is such a brave soul ... no sulking, and without any help he lets me do what I need to do
Cleaning it all out with betadinescrub
Nieuw verbandje plaatsen en daarna lekker stoeffen met zijn nieuw groen-blauw verband Putting on a new tape and then showing his blue-green bandages off to his friends...
Taking a nap with his friend the Black in the stable
And then it was dinner time again... http://s127.photobucket.com/albums/p146/evaellenjoan/?action=view ¤ t = 04032010138.flv
Veel valt er niet te vertellen....het heeft weer veel geregend...enkel de honden vonden het leuk om daarna in de plassen te gaan zwemmen... There is not much to say .... it has rained a lot ... again... Only the dogs liked it to go swimming in the pools of water...
I went to get the chipreader at the vetclinic JG in Muchamiel (Thanks Juan !)
Examination of the chips of the horses revealed the following things:
Cubanito is indeed Cubanito and idem ditto what Altanero is concerned. But Amoroso .... is Amorosa on paper and a mare ... which we have not. And Aston ...appears not to be Aston because he who we thought was Amoroso, is Aston . So Pretty Face ...has not the correct papers at the moment.
The previous owner currently is not responding to my phone calls or SMS ...
Ex-Amoroso, now Aston .... showed ex-Aston Pretty Face that it all changes nothing to their close friendship ...
I went to see my baby boy...like every morning ....and he is again a bit better then yesterday.... I gave him the anti-inflammatory and we hugged a lot...with all 3 ofcourse. A piece of appel, some carrot, a slice of hard bread....and then ofcourse a haynet with lovely alfalfa...
As you can see....when Punkie eats he has his weight on his 2 front legs.
I will only be completely happy again when they all will be home again....
So last night we started with the treatment of the horses with the medication Dr. Eric Laarakker had advised and had donated together with Irene from NMLHealth, for the welfare of the horses.
Last night they got the Parasiet Compositum for the first time....& all went well. So they got some more this morning and evening. At lunch they received the Drainage Compositum for the first time and will get some more in a minute. Tomorrow we start with the Boost Compositum.
Our Filly is neighing every time she sees me coming out the house or passing by. She is such a sweetheart
This morning I had an appointment with the farrier. He thinks Punkie hurt an inner tendon. He trimmed all 4 feet and cleaned them well to be sure there was no little hole in there. He also trimmed Brownies feet as they were growing wrong too...
Tonight Tchanca seemed to have something wrong and he had +40.3°C of fever. I gave him a full treatment and thus I also treated the fever and aspirinpoints. I gave him an anti-inflammatory and the fever dropped to 39.3 ° after an hour.
We keep busy....Everytime again and learn a lot in the mean time ! Luckely the weather is finally becoming more normal .... Well is that really true? ... Today we had suddenly 46 ° C in the sun in the afternoon...
At the moment she is still alone in the round pen...so they all can get accostom to eachother. Eating lunch alone in peace (there are heavy clouds over here).
