Horse Fact

~Fact of life, Horses love rolling in mud. Probably more than pigs!

Update on Zeke

Zeke responded to the medications he was given almost immediately. I was so worried. It's only natural when one of Mama's babies is sick. He's fast on the road to recovery though. His limp went away almost overnight and he acts like he feels much better. He not only got his Pet Treats that night but is getting them twice a day, with his meds hidden in them. *smile*. He just thinks he's been one special boy and I'm sure he also hopes All the special attention never ends.

Speaking of Zeke

He had to go to the Vet today. I don't care how many Dog Treats you have if he knew that truck ride was going to turn into a trip to the Vet you couldn't have gotten him in. Every time he goes there someone is poking him, sticking him, squeezing him or cutting something off. (he hasn't been the same for the Vet since the neuter job). This time though was for his sore little paw. I noticed him limping and within just a couple of days he could hardly put it on the floor. There's some swelling in the joint, the ankle I suppose you'd call it and his temp was Really high. The first thing the Vet did was test him for Lyme disease. Turns out that Lyme Disease can hiberante for an extrodinary amount of time then surface. He was all clear for that though. The Dr. doesn't think it's a break, nothing felt broken and if it is a fracture there's nothing really you can do but keep him off of it as much as possible and let it heal. A cast isn't a good option. Zeke has been loaded up meds and I have to keep an eye on him to make sure it doesn't get any worse. Seems that Lyme Disease also can fool the test sometimes so one of the meds is actually a treatment for that just to be on the safe side.
Keep my little buddy in your thoughts and send him healing wishes. I'm going to give him an special All Natural Treat tonight for all his troubles today.

They just love him to pieces

~The cats love to waller on Sam like he's an old rug and sometimes he can be a grouchy old cuss. But he allows them their brief moment then sniffs their butt and gently sends them on their way. He has some of the most tender and gentle qualities about him.

Zeke ~ The Border Collie

~The thing about Zeke.Zeke is my Border Collie. I think I put it once that he was completely nutty, neurotic and deliriously happy. He's soooo attached to me. All of my animals are. The ol' man says that I need brake lights on my butt 'cause if I stopped real fast they'd all have their noses up my rear end because they stick so close to me. I have a little procession. *smile* But Zeke, Oh My GoD! and he stares at you so intensely with those one and a half blue eyes of his. He spooks some people with the way he looks at you. For those of you that have never had the experience of a Border Collie or the likes, They can be way intense dogs.

Old Dogs and Kittens

~The 2 youngest cats Boo and Shorty are always up to some antics or another. Last night Sam was in the kitchen getting his vitamins and those 2 were playing leap frog over him. Sam so interested in his vitamins (the food I hide it in actually) that he paid them no mind other than a glance here and there. It was funny. They would get a running start and take turns diving over and past him.
